Posted in: Earth 2 Reviews

 

Nuclear explosion cliffhanger, I’m not sure that you can possibly top that but last time I checked the book hasn’t been cancelled so that means the heroes are still alive in some horrific fashion.With the sheer amount of death and punishment being bombarded on this book, the question needs to be asked. Can this bleak world become even bleaker? What else can the deadly combo of Tom Taylor and Nicola Scott possibly cook up in their minds to twist the arms of our heroes? Will there be some some ray of light? The answers to those questions are yes….and no. Let’s dive in and find out together.

REVIEW: Green Lantern #32


Posted in: Green Lantern Reviews

 

The enemy of my enemy is my friend, a phrase that has been echoed throughout the ages. The readers of Green Lantern have seen this phrase come to fruition over the past year, but it looks like that trusting a shape shifter is never a good idea no matter what the circumstances are. Plus now that we know that the Durlans have been hiding the true game changer for this war without telling their allies. If I know anything about partnerships, it’s that hiding something can lead to a terrible break up. So let’s not waste anymore time and see what Uprising part 3 has in store.

REVIEW: Green Lantern New Guardians #31


Posted in: Green Lantern New Guardians Reviews

 

Oh boy, I’m still reeling after the last annual for New Guardians, but now the regular title must press on. Sometimes the best solution to a problem is for one to remove themselves from the given situation. Give yourself some perspective and perhaps that individual can find the answer to the turbulence they are currently in. Maybe that person should be forced to leave? Well that’s exactly where we find Kyle at this given crossroad. He’s either become or becoming something bigger than his mind could comprehend. It looks like Kyle will have to look deep inside himself to figure out this problem.

REVIEW: Green Lantern Corps #31


Posted in: Green Lantern Corps Reviews

 

One issue in and it appears that Green Lantern Corps has the Khund/Durlan alliance on the run. One chapter in into a six part crossover and the enemy is already calling a retreat. For some that could signify a loose story and the writers aren’t pacing the story properly. Kinda hard to say that with one issue but I know some fans will slide to that argument. For others this could only mean that there is a bigger end game for the overall story and that makes me want to read this crossover more. So let’s see what chapter two has in store for The Green Lantern Corps.

Look at yourself for a few minutes. Go ahead, this review will still be here. Are you done? Do you see how much you’ve changed for good or ill? Do you feel different or act differently? What if you became something that you despised? Now take the scenario and place Superman and Lois Lane. The most iconic relationship in all of comics and pull them away from apart. Now twist both of their images, making them virtually unrecognizable to each other. What happens when the two meet after Lois’s apparent death, five years prior? Well let’s jump right into this roller coaster that is Earth 2.

REVIEW: Green Lantern #31


Posted in: Green Lantern Reviews

 

Can you believe it’s been an entire year since Robert Venditti and crew took? I know I can’t, it feels just like yesterday. For only being on the job for one year, Robert sure has tested Hal in a way that I didn’t think was possible. Forcing him to be a leader readers saw Hal mature as a leader and as person. With all that being said, war is at the door steps and The Green Lantern Corps face not simply the Khund, the Durlans, the Outer Clanns, but races who have joined with them. Needless to say that’s one heck of a enemy fleet. So without further  adieu, let’s start this uprising!

REVIEW: Green Lantern New Guardians Annual #2


Posted in: Green Lantern New Guardians Reviews

 

Take a look yourself for one second. Yes I am talking to you reading this right now. You have something buried deep inside you, something that you don’t want to acknowledge or accept. It’s okay we all have something we store deep inside so that we can continue to function normally. That being said bottling up problems can only lead to problems later and potentially worse. Like a dam waiting to burst. For a super powered individual like Kyle Rayner, bottling up emotions could lead to something far worse. How much worse do you ask? Plus what exactly does all this have to do with Kyle’s brief period in the Source Wall? Well let’s open up this bag of emotions and find out.

Well the time has finally arrived. The fallen angel of the Green Lantern Corps finally has his own ongoing series, and you will beware his power. This has to be one the most perplexing moves made by DC comics. Outside of last years Forever Evil event, you don’t see DC pushing for a solo series centered around one of their notorious villains, yet here we are. One can’t deny that this series only exist because of the popularity resurgence thanks to Geoff Johns for the past ten years, this is the next logical step for Sinestro. So with that being said, does this first issue hit or miss? Let’s open page one and find out.

Transforming is a  natural occurring phenomena in our world. However we don’t think of our mundane changes as a phenomenal, they are simply part of every day life as we continue to exist on this small blue planet we call home.

Will they and those around them even notice the transformation, and if they do who’s to say that this is good or bad. Kyle Rayner himself is changing, here he continues his journey to who no’s what.

REVIEW: Green Lantern Corps #30

With “Uprising” one month away this week I take a gander at the last issue before the actual war begins it’s time for one more breather issue before the conflict can finally head to it’s apex. While we know the motivations driving the Khund and the rest of the forces against our emerald warriors, but what about the mysterious Durlans? Outside of simple generic they are evil plot what is there prime motivation for waging war on such a scale. Well as it turns out that is the focus of this issue on the brief history of the Durlans. So now the question is does this issue answer to much or to little to the Durlans side of events. Let’s open page one and find out.
