This series was Robyn's last completed arc, as a new 6-issue miniseries hit the shelves beginning in July. 

I Love NY centered around Robyn's life after the marriage of her friend Marian at the end of her ongoing series and started out with her working on a new arrow just to core an apple to eat. Seems she had been idle in the months following being Maid of Honor at said wedding. This lull wasn't going to last long as before she knew it, she was in pursuit of a grown man who stole a school bag from a young teen girl named Gabby. After apprehending him the goodol' fisticuffs route and returning the bag, she learned this was all about drugs. Deciding to get involved one last time, Robyn starts investigating and learned it's delivery by drones from seemingly innocent drummers on the stoop of a brownstone. This time, the archer means business with the point of an arrow. Unfortunately, their friends have guns and it's a regular shootout. Arrow triumphs over bullet and NYPD are left to clean up the mess. Enter wheelchair bound Commissioner Julia Gingrich, a long time ally of Robyn's who confronts her when she says it was a one-time deal. Robyn had to be either in or out. Nottingham Investigations reopens... But first Robyn makes a date at a library.

In #2, people are disappearing around the five boroughs, and a teen boy is the latest kidnap victim. A substantial reward is put up for his safe return, but the lizard creatures who kidnapped him weren't looking for a ransom. Robyn begins an immediate investigation, asking the right questions and in at least one case paying for the privilege of getting the tip. Seems only one man knows the truth, but because of the story (he tells Robyn) about his own encounter, no one believes him. On the way to meet him, Robyn meets one with only one thing on his mind when he sees her (or maybe he's that crass with all the ladies)., who pretends to be who she seeks. Following the lead from the correct Big T sends Robyn to the sewers, two face-offs, and the latest kidnap victim. A surprising twist awaits at the end of the story, for two characters.

BFF Britney Waters, Red Agent, guests in #3 as Robyn is hired to get pictures of a cheating hubby at a highborn adult club where Red is on the trail of a notorious sex trader. Of course, when the two meet they fight, it's a comic book, heroes do that. Pick up volume 1 to see why, though. Robyn learns the truth of why she was really sent to the club... And she's not happy. With Red's help ata NY pier, she shuts down the ring, once and for all.

Robyn faces highborn clown creatures in #4 who are targeting children for undisclosed but obvious sinister reasons. You thought Robyn was violent in the previous chapters, you'll be surprised (or maybe not) as the badass archer is at possibly her angriest. When this issue first came out, I played her in a Have Your Character Answer a Question, so feel free to reread that post after checking out this chapter of volume 1.

A vampire, more specifically avapor lord, supposedly extinct, is the bad guy of the month for issue #5, and guest Hellchild, is called in to help Robyn go after him after he kills a pack of werewolves. The investigation into finding him leads to getting directions from a boatload of vampires, or specifically one, who gives them a warning. The criminal will bite one of our intrepid crime fighters before seemingly being brought down by the other... But trouble awaits Robyn on her return to Manhattan. (Read to find out what)

Issue #6 finds Robyn on the wrong side of the law, accused of a crime she didn't commit (again, read to see what), and she is faced with answering a lot of questions over and over. Meanwhile, a troubled highborn youth commits a crime and is brought to the same precinct. Where Robyn hadn't been evasive (but did get angry), the youth kind of is, and spots a way to exact mayhem in an attempt to escape. He proves he's guilty of what he was being charged with (but the reader would already know that), when he tries to lift a familiar (to GFT Oz fans) piece of evidence, causing a massive transmutation. It's Robyn to the rescue, despite how she had thus far been treated by New York's finest. Unfortunately, it's too late for many, including her own interrogating officer. The victory comes by sheer force of will, and quick thinking instead of Robyn's normal MO.

Liesel Van Helsing guests as the vapor lord in a new body and more dangerous look made a return engagement in #7 (volume 2) To find out why a vampire huntress and not the vampire is used, I again implore you to read #5 in volume 1. It's winter now in New York, and snow is falling as this vampire baddie is back on his killing spree. It's subways to Grand Central Station to the ice rink at Rockefeller Center, where the battle ends... And again, a heroine's blood is shed. Thanks to Helsing, however, the last vapor lord is at last finally on ice,

In #8, a different kind of hunt, this one for sport, takes place, and our heroine is the prey. Katana-wielding Masumi is the guest and the bearer of the news. What's worse... She was used by the hunter, a supra-neutralizing astral reaper, or snare, to corner his prey in her own apartment. With it being her own turf, the New Yorker leads a merry chase ending with the snare's defeat... But bombshell... Robyn was never the archer of the target according to the hunter's last words... And Robyn keeps the weapon.

Robyn is having second thoughts about the life she leads and is reminiscing on the Roosevelt Islandairtram, unaware of her latest upcoming adventure in #9: Saving a man from a demon who has taken over his mask. The creature shows itself only after the hold is broken, and for once the impossible (when it comes to Robyn) happens. Read that chapter of volume 2 to learn what.

A Highborn locks himself in the Statue of Liberty, the storm of the century rages, and we get another glimpse into Robyn's past in #10. Robyn has to use her gray matter to get out of this one as she races past defeated police to the scene. There's something wrong with armed guards throughout that she has to go through to get to the guy. Seems Battery just wants to be put down because his powers are too much and out of control. Robyn wants another solution, and we again see the compassionate side of the kickass girl in green. A solution is discovered and at a high cost (but not her life), Robyn once again saves her beloved city.

Throughout the previous ten issues, the actual main villainess has been plotting a revenge, that comes into play at the end of issue #10. As issue #11 begins, Robyn has reached the end of her rope as her original destiny continues to seem to thread its way through her, and her friends and loved ones live. She feels it's inevitable and hers only as the villains make their move, and the woman who wants Robyn dead, and why, is fully revealed. As part one ends, destinies clash and Robyn barely escapes with her life.

The conclusion of the story started in #11, and of the maxiseries arrives in #12. Robyn returns home to find her apartment engulfed in flames, she knows who's responsible for this latest arson, and intends to end it, especially since one of herneighbors doesn't make it. Robyn sets up a new home in an abandoned restaurant once owned by the drug dealers from #1. We see a different Robyn, yet. As determined as ever, but this time... "Nobody else gets hurt". Her words. The Commissioner, there to visit at Robyn's request finally agrees to let Robyn do this alone, although Robyn is requesting some heavy favors including actually shutting down the subway system around Grand Central Station! The final showdown between her and the villainess take place in the famous NYC landmark, and at the platform. It is there Robyn learns destinies can change. Read it to see for yourself. 

If it weren't for the last page snippets of what was happening elsewhere, these issues could easily be stand alone. Well, except for the last two, which were parts one and two of the same story. Although I love the character and the concept, as a whole, this series was a little too violent and bloody at times for my tastes. Robyn, you may be myfavorite, but to be fair, I have to give I Love NY a C+. But that's me... Someone else might give you a higher grade.
