So Ollie has to “prove” he’s good enough for self-righteous Dinah by showing her all his amazing charity work in Seattle (I guess Star City didn’t make the transition into Rebirth?). Ugh, why? This cancerous left-wing bullshit ruins everything. Then Ollie proudly calls himself a Social Justice Warrior (cringe!) and Dinah gives him shit about being white and privileged. Percy simplistically portrays this world like a fucking cartoon! There’s the rich and the conservative - they’re BAD - and there’s the poor and the liberal - they’re GOOD! It’s so ridiculous. The first two pages had me asking, disbelieving, “Really?” The scene: a rich, attractive Republican (read: NAZI) woman storms out on a dinner date with Ollie muttering “Liberal pig” followed by Ollie handing a hundo to a Dickensian street urchin whose mother is playing a guitar with the Woody Guthrie sticker “This Machine Kills Fascists” on it. Fucking Rebirth!īenjamin Percy’s painfully hacky script utterly ruined what I (foolishly) hoped would be a half-decent Green Arrow book. The first two pages had me asking, disbelieving, “Really?” The scene: a rich, attractive Republican (read: NAZI) woman storms out on a dinner date with Ollie muttering “Liberal pig” followed by Ollie handing a hundo to a Green Arrow and Black Canary are a couple again and they’re fighting bankers - this couldn’t possibly suck could it? It could. Fucking Rebirth! Benjamin Percy’s painfully hacky script utterly ruined what I (foolishly) hoped would be a half-decent Green Arrow book.
