I was in WH Smiths over the weekend, and noticed there is a new Arrow Collector's Edition, reprinting the start of the New 52 Green Arrow series. Has anyone else picked this up? Or read the Green Arrow Series? Is it any good? I'm a fan of Green Arrow/Arrow (although not read any post-52 DC) so was wondering what everyone thought?

If it started around issue #17 instead of the beginning, it'd be a hell of a lot better. The first 16 issues are really quite pants.
If it were me, I'd have printed #17 onwards, and some of the Arrow tie-in comics. Or made it a joint Flash/Arrow CE.

Feels like it wasn't really given a chance... wonder if an "Arrowverse" CE would have worked better, e.g. a combined CE featuring Green Arrow, The Flash and possibly Supergirl (even though that is tecnically not Arrowverse) or Legens of Tomorrow-related.
Feels like a lot of new CEs being launched and then not being given a chance. Are the stories concluded in the second issue?

Was this not Titan's downfall a few years back? They released a ton of CE's all at the same time, so none had their own space or chance to breathe? Maybe readers here just aren't into DC comics as much as they are Marvel for whatever reason. Granted, there's no better time to release DC stuff than the week of Batman V Superman but maybe not all at the same time?

Yeah, I remembered seeing a bunch of DC titles come and go within the Space of a few months. Does anyone else remember Star Wars? I started collecting it for a few issues, wish I stuck around to get a complete collection however.

I got #1 of Star Wars, but couldn't find it in my local WHSmiths so didn't get any more. Titan only deliver Justice League to my town now, while Panini deliver all to my WHSmiths.
