Ok last issue we learned that who we thought was Kyle Rayner, tearing across the galaxy causing death and destruction, was actually Alex Nero, a street thug whom the Qwardians gave a yellow ring to thwart the Green Lanterns. But why is he pretending to be Kyle? And why does he seem to be on such a murderous rampage? Well, we don't get all the 411 this issue. But we do get to see Hal Jordan as he comes to face down Ion, whom he assumes is Kyle, and finds out that it is Alex. This really throws him for a loop, and of course they have a huge battle. But then the real Kyle shows up, fully rested and suprisingly in control of himself, after a brief respite on Mogo. Nothing like a little Mogo therapy. Hal can't make any headway with him, but, with Kyle's new powers, he mops him up pretty fast. Now he's on his way to OA with Alex trussed up looking like Hannibal Lector. I like the way their streching this mystery out. And I like the new depth and character their giving Kyle. I really hope he gets his own book after this Maxi-series. Ron Marz, keep up the good work.
