In advance of tomorrow’s Green Arrow 80th Anniversary Spectacular #1, DC has released a Denny O’Neil tribute comic.
The six page short (which you can read now on DC’s website), is illustrated by Jorge Fornes (Rorschach), colored by Dave Stewart, and written by Larry O’Neil, who is the late Denny O’Neil’s son. Green Arrow was just one of the many characters who Denny O’Neil wrote for DC Comics over the years, perhaps most-famously penning the Green Lantern/Green Arrow comics, which were illustrated by Neal Adams, O’Neil’s collaborator on Batman.
The story is titled Tap, Tap, Tap, and it is one of 12 that will appear in tomorrow’s Green Arrow anniversary anthology. It is also a very touching look at the life of the legendary DC Comics creator, one that is entirely silent throughout, with the exception of the final page. As DC describes it in its own press, “The intimate look at Denny’s life chronicles the challenges and victories both in and out of comics, from his childhood to raising a family, and his stellar career as a writer, until his passing in 2020.”
