REVIEW: Green Lantern #44

HAPPY 75TH GREEN LANTERN!!! While yes we should technically be celebrating Alan Scott by himself, I won’t be a grump this time around but instead we will celebrate the concept of what being a Green Lantern is. It’s hard to believe the original concept of Green Lantern created by Bill Finger and Martin Nodell has lasted seventy five years, while also morphing into various incarnations. Proving that comic characters are malleable and while most fans who will read this know that change isn’t forever it bears repeating sometimes. So instead of complaining about the current state of Hal Jordan’s hair let’s enjoy this off road romp.

REVIEW: The Omega Men #4


Posted in: Reviews

 

Can you actually believed that I enjoyed an issue of The Omega Men last time? Now that all the pieces are fully in place for Tom King to progress the story forward, with one exception. That exception being Kyle Rayner and his role in the grander scheme of things with the spectrum of being a Green Lantern. For over twenty years Kyle has gone from reluctant artist to Godhood, with different incarnations in between. Johns morphed Kyle into this “chosen” one type character which then was dropped until Justin Jordan took over New Guardians. Be prepared Kyle fans, this issue is the deconstruction of Kyle Rayner.

REVIEW: Green Lantern Lost Army #3


Posted in: Green Lantern: Lost Army Reviews

 

Have you ever hated someone in your life? Chances are you have, and while the circumstances of a persons rage towards another human being differ, that emotional wave is something we are all familiar with. That memory can stay with a person for quite a while, depending on the person. However what if you could meet said person under different circumstances? Would you stay the course and allow rage and mistrust to guide you or will you attempt to change that predetermined fate? That’s where John Stewart face themselves with the one who destroyed Oa (no not Parallax Hal Jordan).

REVIEW: Justice League #43


Posted in: Justice League Reviews

Sadly the summer is almost over which means kids will be returning to school and Hollywood blockbuster become dormant until the following year. Thankfully the same can’t be said for the world of superhero comics where huge blockbuster type events could run all year along (or unless your Marvel, then a month due to double shipping). That seems to be the case with Geoff Johns and Jason Fabok’s Darkseid War, heck to some fans this is the eventual DC movieverse should look like. However only in comics can we truly appreciate the talent when a writer and an artist create perfect harmony.

REVIEW: Earth 2 Society #3


Posted in: Earth 2 Reviews

It’s officially been over three years since Earth 2 was originally launched, with that truncated time frame the heroes of Earth 2 have “seen some shit.” A good chunk of those adventures have been reviewed here, but after finishing this issue4 one though popped in my mind. Ever since World’s End began the characters have been moving nonstop, which hasn’t allowed to come to terms with their recent horrific past., Which in true to life form does fit and makes their character arcs more interesting. However as we all know sometimes when the past isn’t dealt with properly it can lead to lingering problems.

REVIEW: The Omega Men #3


Posted in: Reviews

 

Here we are once again to examine the space drama following the terrorist group known as the Omega Men. If you’ve read my previous reviews then you know my stance on the short life span of the series. Honestly I’m surprised that I even bothered to read this issue when you factor how unsatisfied I was due to storytelling choices made by the author. Yet despite that I felt compelled to give The Omega Men another chance before ultimately dropping this book from the review pile. So did The Omega Men manage to convince me to stick around or is the final review of the series?

REVIEW: Green Lantern #43


Posted in: Green Lantern Reviews

Man I have to tell you that sometimes the mythical fifth week can be a real buzzkill for issues, you are looking forward to the following month. It’s been two months since Hal’s rogue status quo and while it’s impossible to judge a new direction so soon, but usually the third issue begins to cement the foreseeable future of a run. Hal Jordan being a “renegade” can be seen as good entry point but as Robert Venditti knows that you need to be able to hook readers for however long your story is. Also in shocking news to Ethan Van Sciver returns!
