Comics! Green Lantern Corps #3


Green Lantern Corps #3

Peter J. Tomasi: Story and Words
Geraldo Borges: Guest Penciller
Scott Hanna: inker

Just realised that there is a guest penciller in this issue. Didn't notice too much, unless you count the lack of severed limbs and blood.

We finish this issue the same way we start the issue: some Lanterns surrounded by the big bad enemies. What happens in between? Lanterns find out that they can't really beat their enemies. So...same as last issue. But now they have one captured. But some Lanterns are still left behind...so...

Blah. Forget this. Too many players, too much of a need to know what happened before with the Corps. Frankly, I didn't read it beforehand, so why read it now? I was only invested in the Guy Gardner character, and I haven't seen as much from him as I did when I read Emerald Warriors before the reboot.

I guess some book had to be the bad Green Lantern book. Considering that I like the other three much more than this, and this story is not entertaining to me. This is probably my last issue.

The idea that there are creatures made of more will power than what the Guardians have harnessed is weird. It is interesting. But there just hasn't been that much here for me to get into. When you really only care about one character in a team book, its a good sign that the book isn't for you.

Words: 5/10
Pictures: 6/10
Recommend: Nah, not unless you were into it before.
Buy Next Issue: I'm not. Maybe later on, but not now.
