Summary

This issue is Green Arrow (Vol. 3) #73, part of DC Comics' 2001–2007 run, released April 11, 2007, with a June 2007 cover date. Its story title is "Jericho, Part One: The Long Fall Only Hurts When It's Over," the first chapter of the "Jericho" trilogy. In the story, Oliver Queen serves as mayor of Star City while secretly funding the controversial mercenary super-team the Outsiders, triggering a political scandal. Citizens demand a recall election, and Police Chief Brian Nudocerdo campaigns to replace him. Hearing of the scandal, Oliver's biological son Connor Hawke returns to Star City and immediately encounters a new metahuman calling himself Breaker. Oliver rushes to help, but father and son, reunited at last, clash over the scandal. Green Arrow, Speedy (Mia Dearden), and Connor then investigate Breaker's origins and discover he has teamed with Mastman, Monk, Pick'n'Roll, and others—all secretly employed by Oliver's old foe Brick, whose hired crew also includes the archenemy Merlyn. Black Canary (Dinah Laurel Lance) arrives in Star City this issue and offers to fight at their side. Written by Judd Winick, penciled by Scott McDaniel, and inked by Andy Owens, this issue marks the start of Green Arrow's late-run arc of mayoral crisis and alliance with Black Canary.

Editor's review

这一期是温尼克长期执笔《绿箭侠》中后期的关键一环:它把超级英雄故事与市政政治放在同一张桌上——奥利弗·奎恩既要在夜里拉弓,又要在白天应付罢免选举、警察局长逼宫和媒体追问。剧本的戏剧张力主要来自“父亲”与“市长”两个身份的双重受审:康纳·霍克的归来不是温情团圆,而是带着质问的审视,父子对话把英雄的理直气壮剥开一层。 另一方面,本期的动作线同样扎实:新反派“Breaker”登场,Mastman、Monk、Pick'n'Roll等小角色一并铺开,而幕后的Brick与重新登场的梅林则提示读者,这一系列围攻并非散兵游勇。最后黑金丝雀入城助战,为随后《Green Arrow/Black Canary》的婚礼与联合连载埋下伏线。 画面上,斯科特·麦克丹尼尔(Scott McDaniel)分镜流畅、动作感强,配合安迪·欧文斯(Andy Owens)的勾线与Guy Major的上色,夜战与政厅两场戏的气质区分明确。本期32页正文、单期完结性不强,属于“读系列者必读,读单册者需知上下文”的类型。若你在追“绿箭侠与黑金丝雀”这条线,这一期正是二人重新同台的起点之一。

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • 正在按出版顺序追读《Green Arrow》(2001) 第三卷的DC漫画读者
  • 喜欢绿箭侠与黑金丝雀并肩作战、感情线发展的读者
  • 对超级英雄从政、身份危机与舆论政治题材感兴趣的读者
  • 想补完“Jericho”三部曲及后续婚礼故事线的收藏者

Not a good fit for

  • 希望一册读完完整故事的初次接触者,本期只是三部曲第一part
  • 只读中文引进版的读者,本期目前无正式中文版
  • 偏好独立完结、无历史背景负担作品的读者

Reading tips

  1. 建议先读《Green Arrow》(Vol.3) #69—#72 的“Seeing Red”故事线,衔接本期政治丑闻的由来。
  2. 以 #73—#75 三期为一个小单元连读,再转入《Justice League Wedding Special》与《Green Arrow/Black Canary》。
  3. 阅读时留意康纳·霍克与米娅·迪尔登的分工,他们代表奥利弗作为父亲、导师的两条责任线。
  4. 若偏好实体收藏,可检索该期收录的合订本(“Jericho”相关卷)而非寻找单期原刊。
