Continued from yesterday's cover, we see that Ollie was not that far behind. This would of course be a great battle. They are each amazing marksmen and would be pretty evenly matched. Green Arrow has an array of trick arrows to give him an edge, but then again Bullseye can turn any projectile into a weapon. it might come down to who is better at hand-to hand combat.
Ross, a GREAT follow-up to part one's cover. I'm not so sure about the outcome, though. If Bullseye has enough material at his disposal, he could outlast Ollie by that alone. All Bullseye has to do is to keep all his rooms filled with "convertible weapons". Even on Arrow, he reached the end of his quiver.
ReplyDeleteConsidering all the martial arts training Ollie financed for himself and the others, during his earliest post-Hollow days, my money would be on him! GA, himself, said it best to that dwarf sensei:
ReplyDelete"How could you be inconspicuous if you're built like a football player?"
Ross this cover is GREAT...
ReplyDeleteand best of all is the title pun... i darn near fell out of seat groaning so hard...
LOL!!!!
Jack-El's right. That, alone, makes this one an instant classic.
ReplyDelete:-D
Of course Ollie would prevail in the end, but mostly because this is fiction and he's the hero. Of course it would be touch-and-go, back-and-forth, and cat-and-mouse for most of the issue.
ReplyDeleteOf course, it could develop that Bullseye was hired not to kill anyone, but to steal something, and all of this was a ploy to give him access. My money in that case would be a specific one of Ollie's trick arrows... only, who would want such a thing, and why?
Bullseye probably could Ollie busy, but only until Dinah escaped whatever trap she was in, and then its game over!
ReplyDeleteRoss, how would you do a cover with Bullseye vs Human Target?
ReplyDeleteSomeone's In The Kitchen With Dinah? Is Ms. Lance going to be cut up into pieces by Bullseye and added to the long list of female victims who become... [drum roll, please] "Women in the refrigerator???"
ReplyDelete@Wildcat: I thought that was Major Force's bag?
ReplyDeleteIt's a setting of irony for potential and possible deja vu, anon, with variances to the situation. Instead of Green Lantern/ Kyle Rayner, there's now Green Arrow. Instead of Major Force, there's now Bullseye. Instead of "Alex," there's now Dinah... and "in the kitchen," no less.
ReplyDeleteAnd, yes, I know Ross is referring to Hell's Kitchen. It was just another in-joke of my own. :)
ReplyDeleteActually, Bullseye is going to prison, even if he can outfight Dinah and Ollie both--because as soon as Dinah and Ollie realize they're losing, one of them will hit their JLA Emergency Signal--and Bullseye has zero chance against Superman or Wonder Woman or Flash (Barry or Wally) or Green Lantern (any of them, unless it's G'nort) or J'onn J'onzz or Red Tornado.
ReplyDeleteBullseye has a chance against Wally. [SPOILER] He is dead. Yet another character killed off by writer who seems to go series to series doing that. And regarding WHICH ARROW is Bullseye after - that would be the EMP arrow Queen Industries created.
ReplyDeleteOh, come on. Comic book villains never "stay" in prison long. Kill'em and forget'em, I say. Problem solved. I wonder who put the contract out on Black Canary?
ReplyDeletePlus, even if it's the Earth-STF version of the original Bullseye who is dead, who's to say there isn't an impersonator (like Taskmaster) or a clone (a la Manhunter and Sportsmaster) wearing the uniform? I mean, personally, I still can't stand the Glaswegian who replaced Joe Scudder as the Mirror Master. But, I've gradually learned to grudgingly tolerate him, as he proved not to be a push-over (when it came to eventually being defeated)!
ReplyDeleteWhat you might call "mastering" my negative preconceptions. ;-)

Unless the author wants to show how tough they think he is, in which case he might defeat a line-up consisting of Dinah, Ollie, Flash (Wally), GL (Kyle), Zatanna, Hawkman, and the Atom... as Deathstroke did in 'Identitity Crisis' #3.
:(
Green Arrow would of course steal Bullseye from Dinah to bolster his pathetic Rogue's Gallery, just like he did with Count Vertigo.
ReplyDeleteI thought Count Vertigo was a Mr. Miracle villain before he debuted in animation on the 1992 Bat-series?
ReplyDelete@Simreeve: Yeah, that was absolutely ridiculous. :P
ReplyDeleteWriters suck goat mucus sometimes.
@Kid Charlemagne: sad-but-true. At those times, their poetic licenses should be revoked. Permanently!
