Fun Wedding Slightly Marred by the Weak Attempt at a Twist Ending
Green Arrow and Black Canary's Wedding Special Issue is a solid read that sees the DC Universe reacting to the one-again, off-again couple finally tying the knot. The wedding itself is a fun affair that is punctuated by a throw down between the heroes in attendance and Deathstroke's Secret Society of villains. As Slade says, it is unlikely the villains will accomplish much with all the heroes present but how could they not take the bait. The downfall of the issue is the weak twist ending that sees Green Arrow attack Canary on their wedding night with Canary forced to kill Oliver in self defense. It was an obvious attempt at a shock (that was quickly revealed to be a ruse) and essentially just tries to force readers into picking up the subsequent Green Arrow/Black Canary series that spun out of this one shot to see what actually happened to Oliver.

Green Arrow/Black Canary Family Business
Family Business is rather short for the price, but I found it quite worth it and very enjoyable. They story revolves around Ollie searching for his kidnapped son Conner with the help of Dinah and Mia. Along the way the Arrow family teams up with Batman and some others. Overall I thought the story was fun and pretty funny, especially some of the dialog between Speedy and Black Canary. Also there's a hilarious part with one of Green Arrow's long time friends. Mike Norton's art is always top notch, and in my opinion his is the best in the series. If you've read Road to the Alter and The Wedding Album make sure to continue the story with Family Business!

Not as good as a lot of the Green Arrow standalone stuff, but it's still pretty good.
This comic is good, but not great. The Green Arrow standalone series is much better, but this is still pretty good if you're a big Green Arrow fan.

One book for the price of two!
The story told in volumes two and three of the young Green Arrow & Black Canary series, "Family Business" and "A League of Their Own," is fine. The problem with these two slim volumes is that they should have been one.At a scanty 128 pages and a hefty $17.99 cover price, each book should at least provide a complete story about our two newlywed heroes and their friends. But no, this is one story -- divided in two, I can only assume, so DC can make twice as much on sales. For shame, DC!If they really wanted to make money from Green Arrow and Black Canary fans, the company should release the long-overdue collection of trades from the Mike Grell years. Now -that- would be a series worth dropping some change for.This 1-in-2 story by writer Judd Winick and artist Mike Norton is fine. Not outstanding or groundbreaking, but fine. Connor Hawke, Green Arrow's son and protege, has been in a vegetative state since a recent assassination attempt. Now he's been kidnapped, and Green Arrow and Black Canary enlist the aid of sidekick Speedy, the British thief Dodger, and fellow Justice Leaguers Batman and Plastic Man in an attempt to find and save him. (Green Lantern makes a brief appearance, too, but that's mostly for chuckles ... at Green Arrow's expense.)There are new faces and old in the mix, including an unsatisfying reappearance by the Japanese archer Shado, who has paled since her memorable role in the landmark "Longbow Hunters" tale of yore. A new set of bad guys doesn't really inspire much fear, particularly when Batman is along for the ride.For an ongoing series, this story is entertaining. If I hadn't been so irked by DC's moneygrubbing tactic, I might have enjoyed it more.by Tom Knapp, Rambles.(NET) editor
