The Issue

The Green Arrow series by Chris Condon and Montos has been nothing short of revolutionary for the comic book world. It has tackled mature topics with a finesse that distinguishes it from the wider offerings, handling these themes with intelligence and thought-provoking narratives. In an industry dominated by colossal figures like Spider-Man, Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman, series featuring less mainstream heroes are often given less space to grow. This reality hits even harder when a story as impactful and successful as this one is abruptly cancelled.

Initially released as a mini-series, the Green Arrow run garnered significant praise and remarkable sales, meriting an extension that thrilled both fans and critics alike. Yet, despite its success, it has been unceremoniously halted under the guise of poor sales figures. This abrupt decision not only deprives loyal fans of ongoing story arcs but stifles creativity and the exploration of complex topics these creators excelled at.

We recognize the inherent challenges in the comic book industry but urge DC Comics editorial to reconsider their decision and allow Condon and Montos to continue their extraordinary work. This isn't just about one series; it's about allowing diverse voices and stories the space they need to thrive. We call for transparency in sales figures and the decision-making process that led to this cancellation. Providing creators with the opportunity to complete their envisioned narratives fosters an industry that thrives on creativity and originality.

Sign this petition to stand with us in supporting Chris Condon and Montos's Green Arrow run. Let's champion creativity and ensure that important stories continue to find a place in our world. Together, we can make a difference by showing DC Comics that there is indeed a vibrant audience eager for these narratives.

In addition to the petition, I would really like to urge that if you are interested in DC continuing this series, we need to show up when it comes to the singles! If you haven't read the series yet and this has brought your attention to it, please invest in Vol. 4 "Fresh Water Kills" to give yourself a taste of what this series has to offer and please don't forget to support your LCS!
