Up until last year, Green Arrow had been among DC’s more troubled comics in the New 52. But that all changed when writer Jeff Lemire and artist Andrea Sorrentino took over the series with Green Arrow #17 last year. Since then, Green Arrow has consistently numbered among DC’s best, delivering a stylish and creative new take on the franchise.
Unfortunately, Lemire and Sorrentino’s run on the series is coming to an end, and soon. Today, DC announced via the L.A. Times’ Hero Complex that a new creative team will be taking over Green Arrow as of October’s issue #35. Lemire and Sorrentino have one issue remaining in their “Longbow Hunters” storyline. Their final issue together will be the September one-shot Futures End: Green Arrow #1, which explores the fate of Oliver Queen five years into the future.
