Green Lantern #14 - DC

This is another one of those books that just keeps getting better and better. To start with, we have an Ethan Van Shiver cover. Just spectacular. Geoff Johns is writing this title. He's a relative new comer to the comic scene, but he's adapting very well. I really like his stories. Then we have Ivan Reis an pencils. Did anybody notice how well his art looked when he was working for CHAOS? I remember picking up those Lady Death's and thinking, "Why isn't this guying working for one of the big guns?". Even back then, I could see brilliance in his work. Now that he's doing some big name titles for DC, and he has better inkers and colorists working with him, his stuff is just incredible. The title splash page, I wish I could turn into a painting for my wall. Then his full page Green Lantern on page 12, should be a poster. It's perfection. What I really like about his characters, is that they're full of emotions. And the way his story flows from panel to panel is brilliant. I really can't say enough about this guy. I think he's one of the hottest artists out there right now. But, back to the story. This is the first chapter of "Wanted: Hal Jordan". So it sets up our scenario. Which is that, during one of his missions, in the Air Force, he was shot down and became a POW, along with his 2 wing-men, Cowgirl and Rocket Man. For 3 or 4 months they were questioned and tortured. Hal didn't wear his ring on missions. Finally they broke out. Now, they've finally found the guys who did this to them, but Cowgirl has gone out solo. And she's been shot down. Well Hal decides to do it right, and goes out with ring in hand, to rescue her. But, he's being set up. As he tears through the camp, using non-lethal force, he comes across the main guy that was torturing them. He basically throws him through a wall, Hal comes out and the Global Guardians are waiting to arrest him. Apparently in his rampage, 2 dozen prisoners were killed. And they're blaming Hal. Of course we know, he's being set up by Abin Sur's son. But we don't know why yet. Brilliant book. Kyle is still my favorite GL, but I really dig this book.
