I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY DID THIS A SECOND TIME

X/1999 REDUX: DYING PART WAY THROUGH YOUR CONFESSION OF LOVE!

Excuse me I will be inconsolable forever about this. 

Syaoran came back RIGHT AS SHE DIED IN FRONT OF HIM, TELLING HIM SHE LOVED HIM RIGHT AS SHE FADED AWAY FOREVER

AND SHE DIDN’T EVEN GET TO FINISH THE ENTIRE SENTENCE. 

SHE DID ALL OF THIS AND SPENT SO LONG ALONE AND SUFFERING AND DYING TWICE TO BRING HIM BACK AND IT WORKED AND SHE DID IT AND SHE DIDN’T EVEN GET TO FINISH HER SENTENCE

SAME SYAORAN

Something I've seen in a JTTW movie, do the books mention anything about a mirror that can reveal a demon and/or celestial being in disguise?

Yes, the book mentions it. Anthony C. Yu's (Wu & Yu, 2012) translation calls it the "imp-reflecting mirror" (zhao yao jing, 照妖鏡). In chapter six, Erlang requests that Heavenly King Li Jing use it to keep track of Monkey during their battle.

(Wu, & Yu, 2012, vol. 1, p. 179).

(Wu, & Yu, 2012, vol. 1, p. 184).

It also appears in chapter 58 during Sun's battle with Six Ears.

(Wu, & Yu, 2012, vol. 3, pp. 107-108).

Lastly, it is briefly mentioned in chapter 61. It's used to deter the Bull Demon King from using transformations.

(Wu, & Yu, 2012, vol. 3, p. 160).

Who is...Oliver Queen | Green Arrow? - A Reading Guide

Oliver Queen is a hero from DC comics that was first introduced in 1941. Ollie is a character based firmly in the folk hero genre with an unmistakable heavy-handed influence from the Robin Hood mythos. Ollie is best known for being canonically a socialist, befriending assassins and "villains", and for having his most common enemy be the police. He is the father of Roy Harper (Speedy, Arsenal, Red Arrow), Connor Hawke (Green Arrow), Mia Dearden (Speedy), Tim North, and Robert Queen II. He's the older brother of Emiko Queen (Red Arrow). And the long-time partner of Dinah Lance (Black Canary) and Hal Jordan (Green Lantern). Ollie is often at odds with other heroes, which makes his epitaph the most fitting way to sum up his character in that he always makes the right enemies.

A reading list with totally legal links is under the cut!

As always

Origins: these comics deal specifically with Ollie's experience on the island

Green Arrow: Year One Green Arrow: The Wonder Year Green Arrow: Stranded (non-canon but still an AMAZING look at the island)

Select Golden and Silver Age Stories: it is HIGHLY ENCOURAGED to read these before reading GL/GA and particularly Snowbirds Don't Fly to get full context of the Pre-Snowbirds GA/Speedy dynamic.

More Fun Comics #78, 81-82, 89, 91-92 World’s Finest Comics #7, 57, 70 Adventure Comics #121, 133, 137, 151, 155, 164, 166, 179, 184, 189, 196 Adventure Comics #233 World’s Finest Comics #88 Adventure Comics #246, 256, 260-263 Teen Titans Vol 1 #4, 11, 19-43

Green Lantern/Green Arrow: possibly the most famous stories involving Ollie, GL/GA is a quintessential must-read for the emerald archer! As stated above, PLEASE read the Golden and Silver Age issues before reading GL (1960) #85-86.

Green Lantern (1960) #76-87, 89 The Flash (1959) #217-219 Green Lantern (1960) #90-100, 102-124

Green Arrow Titles: See parenthetical notes for specific commentary on the various series

Green Arrow (1983) Green Arrow: The Longbow Hunters (this is a direct lead in to Green Arrow 1988) Green Arrow (1988) (while Chuck Dixon's run has been included for completion's sake please note that he has gone on the record saying that the hates Oliver Queen and his writing reflects this) Green Arrow (2001) (this series seriously drops in quality FAST once Judd Winick takes over and his characterization isn't even consistent with what comes before him in the 2001 series let alone in past series, Winick's GA also features significant anti-black racism) Green Arrow/Black Canary (please keep in mind that Judd Winick's characterization is still SHIT but this has been included for completion's sake) Green Arrow: Brightest Day Green Arrow (2011) #17-34

Other Titles and Storylines:

Identity Crisis Final Crisis Green Arrow 80th Anniversary 100-Page Super Spectacular

I am not including much of N52 because it is bad. And I am not including Rebirth because it should not be included in reading lists that are meant to teach you about the character, it exists to make you question if Ben Percy has read Green Arrow comics after YOU have read the comics he supposedly drew inspiration from.

#oliver queen #ollie queen #green arrow #comics #comic books #reading guides #reading lists #the art from green arrow 1988 issue 26 my beloved #I will be making a completely separate reading list in the future to highlight everything we know about Ollie's childhood

179. Love and Heart, Vol. 6 - licensed - The ML continues his toxic manipulations and schemes, and the FL remains blissfully oblivious to it all, no matter who tries to tell her what his true nature is. It's genuinely scary to watch play out, and I'm not sure how it's gonna end.

OH SNAP FAI KNEW

I’ll have to go back and double check this but if I remember Acid Tokyo correctly he knew about Syaoran the whole time didn’t he? He could tell??

Which means HOT DAMN, right from the FIRST MOMENT in front of Yuuko Ichihara’s he knew they were both clones and just went with it. He didn’t have much choice after all, and he knew he was going on this journey anyway, but OHHHH

OHHHHHHHH THAT LENDS SO MUCH TOWARDS THEIR RELATIONSHIP????

We already saw in Acid Tokyo that Fai put his life on the line and almost lost everything because he went to bat for Syaoran’s soul. Fai said Clone Rights and felt so strongly that Syaoran deserved the soul he had been growing on his own that he lost an eye in the effort. 

And since Fai knew about Sakura it means the same thing - that he knew she was artificially created but that he never treated her any differently, she was Important and Incredible and Worth Loving every step of the way. He swore his devotion to HER, not the real Sakura, who he has never met. It’s THIS Sakura that was his daughter. 

And how much does it speak to Fai’s trauma that he saw these two struggling clones and couldn’t help but adopt them. How much of his own brother did he see in these imperfect twins tossed away by the world, used for other people’s plans, exploited and suffering and ultimately destined to die? These people who technically shouldn’t exist, like he thought about himself at the time? 

How much did it take for Fai to see these artificial twins fated for death and pick THEM over his own twin, who he thought had died because of him? 

How much did Fai later decide that at least he could save THESE twins? At least THESE unlucky souls he could help survive? 

And now here we are, Fai having a front row seat to Sakura’s soul disappearing right before his eyes? A second time? And JUST like he watched Syaoran’s soul disappear in Acid Tokyo? 

#How much does he see his own actions reflected before him #When he sees Sakura getting stabbed the same way he did it in infinity? #Oh no I need to go lie down #It's only been one page #Liveblogging the reservoir chronicle #Tsubasa #Vol 179 #Fai #Sakura #Kurogane #Syaoran #But he did it ON PURPOSE #He knew the whole time and loved them both ON PURPOSE

Who is Roy Harper? - A Reading Guide

Roy Harper is a DC Comics legacy character introduced in the Golden Age as the protégé/son of Green Arrow (Oliver Queen). Roy was the original Speedy and had an extremely close relationship with his adoptive father Oliver Queen throughout the Golden and Silver Ages. In 1971, DC released the "Snowbirds Don't Fly" storyline in response to Nixon's announced War on Drugs. This storyline was a PSA designed to show what not to do when a loved one (particularly a young adult child) is struggling with addiction. This story would change the trajectory of Roy's story and cemented his role as a recovered addict, a part of his character that has unfortunately come to be his defining quality rather than being part of his larger story. Roy is a single father to Lian Harper (his daughter with the assassin Jade Nguyen/Cheshire), and has a sibling bond with family members Connor Hawke, Mia Dearden, and Emiko Queen. Roy's origins have always been connected to America's Indigenous Peoples and later comics have cemented their role in his life with his having been adopted by the Diné/Navajo as a young child before being adopted by Ollie in his teenaged years. Roy has had multiple mantles over the years, from Speedy, to Arsenal, to joining the Justice League of America as Red Arrow - but in every iteration is he the very image of a hero.

Reading list (with totally legal links) under the cut!

This reading list begins in the Golden Age and will take you through Pre-52 comics, and then end with the Green Arrow 80th Anniversary Super Spectacular! New 52 is left out because that is not Roy Harper, and Rebirth and more current comics are being left out for a lot of reasons that I won't list here.

If multiple issues are listed for one run at a time, only the first issue will be linked, the assumption is that you will be able to navigate to the following issues from there.

Golden Age:

More Fun Comics #78, 81-82, 89, 91-92

World's Finest Comics #7, 57, 70

Adventure Comics #233

World's Finest Comics #88

Adventure Comics #246, 256, 260-263

Teen Titans Vol 1 #4, 11, 19-43

The next story on this list is "Snowbirds Don't Fly" - it is HEAVILY RECOMMENDED to read the above stories BEFORE reading Snowbirds as they should be considered required context for the storyline as they are the context the story is building from. Don't be a Judd Winick- do your reading kids.
