Another good event! So War Of The Green Lantern has a villain named Krono, who captures all the corps entities, and now Hal Jordan must get it back, while on this quest Parallax finds his way into the Green Lantern power battery, so all the green lanterns are evil blah blah you get the picture. The One weakness i find these Lantern events have is theirs a lot going on, and each issue is done my various writers so its a collection of different writing styles; but in the end its enjoyable. And lik...

I didn't think I needed to read this one right away, because of the re-boot.It doesn't matter, 'cause it's all going to get wiped out anyway, right?I was wrong.Wrong, wrong, wrong. Wrong.Oh, so very wrong... Yep. You need to read this before Green Lantern, Vol. 1: Sinestro. Otherwise, you're going to find yourself in the same situation I was in while trying to make sense of this supposed re-boot. Mostly, it consisted of me scratching my head like a monkey, and muttering things like, What the f*$...

After Krona sets his sights on the entities he unleashes hell on the Green Lanterns as he mind controls 99.9% of them. Who isn't effected? Well the green lanterns infected by Paralax back in the day. So John, Hal, Kyle, and Guy must work together to tackle this Guardian who's pretty much wiping the floor with his mind control and unimaginable power. So each of them has to use a new ring that isn't the Green ring so it makes for some fun moments and explosive action. For a mini-event this is pret...

The Lanterns last stand against Krona; the Guardians embody their greatest fears; the capacity of an Earth Lantern's heart is tested; and Mogo. Mogo, Mogo, Mogo.The triad of storylines from Brightest Day converge at last in this, the final volume of the Green Lantern series, pre-flashpoint. It's all been leading up to this for years now, and it only slightly disappoints.It's not poorly written or drawn. It's not uneventful or slow. Really there is nothing wrong with this except that it is not ex...

Fun series, a bit confusing due to an overwhelming amount of story lines to keep up with. This series leads up to the 2011-2012 New 52 year for Green Lantern. Nothing much else needs to be said. Except, perhaps, the art work is fantastic.

The end is very good, but the rest was written by three authors and the rules get a little confusing.

When my son was three, my wife and I introduced him to the joys of sushi. For some reason he could not get enough of avocado. As my wife and I were trying to flag down the waitress, my son started to make a grab for a big ball of wasabi, assuming that it too was avocado. My wife and I moving in (what seemed like) slow motion and screaming “no” could not quite stop him from popping it in his mouth. In about ten seconds, my son’s face turned crimson, his eyes started to tear and his cute willowy b...

While the book series definitely felt like it was being put into neutral for the company wide reboot, the ending blew all of those feelings away. Another winner from Geoff Johns.

It’s been about 4 years now since I last re-visited Green Lantern and realized why I had this penchance for rings when I was a kid. Fast forward to today and after major yearly crises that has plagued OA and the rest of the DC Universe; I am still hooked and proud to be a Lantern at heart. Reading War of the Green Lanterns this month as it only came out in hardcover and compiles the entire storyline via different issues of Green Lantern and Emerald Warriors; Geoff Johns has once again won my he

In the end, I didn't like this as much as Blackest Knight. For some reason, it all felt rushed to me. It also felt lacking in content. That was a bit of a disappointment for me. I know I probably shouldn't expect to get too emotionally attached to characters in big crossover events, so it maybe isn't fair of me to be sad it isn't there. But Johns has managed to deliver very emotionally effective moments in the middle of big events before, so I know he's capable. I will give this book for kudos f...

Some of this was on the goofy side, but it wasn't bad.I don't know if you could "jump on" here. I've been reading a lot of Green Lantern tpbs, but some are earlier, and some are later.

In Green lantern: Brightest Day, Hal Jordan and the leaders of the other colors discover that an old renegade Guardian named Krona has stolen all of the emotional entities, and now in this mini-crossover, he unleashes his grand plan and commands the entities to possess the Guardians of Oa and puts Parallax back into the Central Power Battery, restoring the Yellow Impurity and taking control of the entire Green Lantern Corps. The human Lanterns get their rings off in time, but how will they save

I really needed this book to get me back in the spirit, it’s the core of why I loved these books and recently I just haven’t been able to enjoy reading as much but this was awesome.Alright so krona is pissed because the guardians kicked him out because he thought having emotions would be fine and so he comes back for revenge with the 7 entities and takes control of the green battery using parallax and all the green lanterns are trying to murder each other. Hal, john, guy, and Kyle save the day a...

This is very close to a 5 I really enjoyed it. I thought the flow was surprisingly good despite going back and forth between three different series' each with a different creative team. The writing and art felt distinct but fitting to the stories/characters. I liked that the premise of the story was pretty simple and then established rather quickly so the rest of the book could be spent with the four main human GLs dealing with it. That said few moments felt off or inconsistent but it worked out...

I thought that I'd eventually get tired of this rainbow coalition of rings. Not yet. After the shocking ending (which I shall refrain from exposing), I can't wait to read the next volume.

Well it's official, I am obsessed with Green Lantern and I guess anything Geoff Johns writes. He has made GL almost as badass as he made Aquaman- almost. This collect complies the crossover stories from GL and the GL Corps and promises big action and fights, but my favorite part was all 4 Green Lanterns of Earth working together to solve this crisis. The solution involves them having to wear the rings and colors of other Corps which make for not only a great story but a beautiful book for the ey...

When these stories were originally published in 2011, I was in the middle of a transition away from comics (which is something I'm in the middle of once again). I didn't have a chance to read most of them, only the concluding issues and a brief epilogue. I assumed that "War of the Green Lanterns" was less inspired than some of the other grand arcs that Geoff Johns brought to the franchise.Well, I was wrong. As with most chapters of his grand design, Johns wove crucial elements into the narrative...

Its the corps vs Krona who is controlling the guardians and even the corps using Parallax and so the 4 Corpsmen must don the rings of other lantern corps and battle Krona from annihilating the corps and the world at large, its a massive story and has many moving parts but ultimately the ending is just too epic and there are moments in the middle of the story where you see them making bold choices and something they normally wouldn't and its normally interesting to see these new side of emotions....

Well, this certainly was... colourful. I don't deny the creativity behind the storyline and the obvious love for these characters that the writers & artists have, however this particular book didn't do it for me. I'm not particularly surprised, though. After The Sinestro Corps War and Blackest Night, the bar was set pretty high. This book was just... too much (as in, not enough). But the ending? Now *that* I didn't see coming.Bring on the New 52 reboot.

I liked this, the art was pretty good and the plot wasn't as convoluted as I thought it'd be. The only minor problem I had was Hal seemed to be a bit Mary Sue/Gary Stu-ish towards the end, but other than that, pretty good
