        My thoughts on this mirror my thoughts on the first issue. Great art but a pretty generic story.

          EVS - for me - is one of those artists where if it's not perfect, it's kindof a mess. That applies here. (and I'm not even talking about how ugly he makes Kilowog)

          ***SPOILERS*** (it's in the thread title, but still...)
          -- I am very unhappy that Arisia is apparently 'fridged (falling into oblivion with nary a struggle) just so we can see Guy's tortured face for several panels before striking out at Kilowog. (who, by the way used to be in love with her, but why should that detract from Guy's moment?) VERY UNHAPPY....

            Well, he always has made Kilowog ugly - as he was when first introduced. I think some artists tried to pretty him up and make him a bit conventional, so I have always liked the EVS old school looking 'Wog.

            That aside, I am not too worried yet about Arisia's fate, feels more like a tease at this point, but I will be bummed if all this series does is knock off some classic GLC members.

            Overall, I liked the issue, provided of course, our missing GLC members find a way back into the story by the end...

                Just read it a few minutes ago. Fantastic art with a painfully run of the mill story.

                  The dying lanterns thing has become so overused that I didn't even blink when those two got sucked into the void. I always assume that a lantern or two will kick the bucket in any given issue. That being said I doubt Arisia is dead.

                        I doubt either character is dead. If they wanted them dead, you'd have corpses.

                        I liked the issue and loved the art (hope EVS checks in during the run to see the love here).

                          I agree Space Cop in fact I am hoping that actually they turn up in the regular universe. I have wanted Arisia as a major character in the main title for a while now. She can let Hal know what's up with the corps and be the main supporting character if the whole ship and two crew members thing is about to go away....OR if the much make em just like Guardians of the Galaxy idea is true, now Hal has his hot warrior alien chick and his Rocket Racoon

                            Hal's a free agent in the love department, so this could be just the alone time they need . . .

                              Arisia is ultra hot and my preferred love interest for Hal, and since Carol decided to turn to Kyle I don't want her back in the picture right now, so Arisia is a nice alternative, unless Hal can somehow "run into" Starfire
