Green Arrow #25 (Vol 3)
"Black Circle: Urban Knights" Part 2 of 6. A mystery unfolds, an intergalactic crime syndicate awaits dismantling, and tension escalates between Green Lantern and Green Arrow. What were once simple crimes spiral into complexity, highlighting the stark contrasts between the heroes. This is not the familiar duo of Hal and Ollie! Connor Hawke might be the sole force capable of preventing their mutual destruction, unless The Black Circle intervenes first... Caught in the act of brawling while drug dealers are slain nearby, Ollie Queen and Kyle Rayner are briefly detained by a Star City officer. Their dispute resumes atop the city's roofs. Connor Hawke intervenes, dispatching Kyle and mandating Ollie's vacation. After venting his frustration on would-be thugs, Jade persuades Kyle to delve deeper into the investigation. Kyle encounters the Tratino crime family's boss in a restaurant hideout, where he's mistaken for a lethal alien. Despite initial hostilities, Kyle gains the mob's trust. The boss reveals that Russian mobsters, later discovered to be aliens, had been using bleach in vast quantities as a narcotic. Concurrently, Ollie, while leading a hike for inner-city children in Mount Seldeed, witnesses a spacecraft crash. An alien, bearing resemblance to Abin Sur, emerges, seeking Ollie's assistance.
