Conner Hawke - Dragon's Blood #2 DC


Conner is in China. A Mr. Zhao, billionaire, has invited the top archers from all over the world to come to his country and compete. It has something to do with a legend about a dragon and an archer. Anyways, while there he finds out that Shado has elected to participate also. But her desires are not altruistic. She was hoping to see Conners dad, Ollie, actually. Connor sees her as evil. He sees her as the one that turned her dad into a killer. That may or may not be who she is, but it really doesn't matter. She tries to warn him that he is surrounded by death. He doesn't want to listen, and Shado ends up getting shot. Being the man he is though, he rushes her to the hospital and saves her life. He's also approached by a Libby Lindstrom and Honduro Kishu, a Kyudo master. Libby is trying to get his attention, and Honduro, while coming across as accomodating and interested in Connor's abilities, I think is actually out to kill him. Somebody else there, that Eddie Fyers talks to is Brandy Sloane, who is there with Tony Crowfoot. At the end of the issue, in a conversation with Mr. Zhao, Honduro makes reference to Connor's brother. Surprise! I think it's Tony. But we'll have to wait until next issue to find more information. I like this book, because I think it's about time that they expanded on Ollie's world. Finally! Even if it is only for 6 issues.
