CGC 1226039019 10-11/1971 - In They Say It'll Kill Me... But They Won't Say When! Green Lantern, Green Arrow and the Black Canary try to straighten out Roy Harper (Speedy) who has become a junkie. Few can argue that the landmark Green Lantern series co-starring a revitalized Green Arrow played a big part in changing the superhero genre. Denny O'Neil's socially-relevant scripts, with the taut, dynamic artwork of Neal Adams (not to mention the crisp inking of Dick Giordano) set the stage for a more-realistic comic book, one that wasn't afraid to tackle tough subjects like poverty, racism, and drug abuse head on.
