Running Up That Hill

Green Arrow & Black Canary #3 variant coverThere is thunder in our hearts! Green Arrow & Black Canary #3 is on sale today! Check out the variant cover, and click on the image for a peek at the pencils and inks. As a bonus, here’s the original sketch. I was going for that Indiana Jones feel, with Green Arrow in his classic costume holding onto his hat. Unfortunately, no one seems to like that damn hat. At the end of the issue, I did get a chance to tweak Ollie’s costume a bit. I’ve tried to combine the classic Neal Adams costume with a slightly more modern flair. While not drastic, I think the new look should pair up well with Black Canary’s — it’s more about how you handle the fabric and the little details. Designers, make it work! ~spins and exits room~

UPDATE: The regular cover (seen here) was named “Cover of the Week” by the fine folks at WizardUniverse.com. Thanks, guys!

I’m a big fan of the hat. The hoods cool and all, but the hat is classic!
