Green Lantern Corp #10 - DC

I really like the approach they're taking with this book. When the original Green Lantern switched over to Green Lantern Corps, we got the proving ground where a lot of these characters came from. But it was always like the Green Lantern Corps were the supporting characters. And really, with the Corps members counting in the 1000's, Hal Jordan, John Stewart and Guy Gardner really should've been the supporting characters. But for some reason, the minds at DC couldn't focus on that fact. Instead we got a lot of Corps members as guests, but it was always a story about one of the 3, with some other members thrown in, to show that it was a team book. Then we got the Green Lantern Quarterly book. That one seemed to focus more on the alien races. Of course there was still always a story about one of the 3 in there. But, it was a step in the right direction. I mean think about it, we are one race in a universe of millions. Why, would so many of this cosmic police force's stories evolve around us? But, now with this new book, we have characters that we've come to acquaint with over the years, and we can focus stories on them, without the human factor. I mean we got Kilowog, Salaak, Mogo and Natu to name a few. And with this series we've been getting to know more and more of them. I also liked with this issue, how Dave Gibbons does the art for the part with Guy Gardner, and Patrick Gleason does the art for the alien parts. It worked very well together. Of course I'm sure it helps that Dave Gibbons is writing it also. He does very well with these alien races. He recognizes that even though there are so many races that are humanoid in form, they all have different needs, priorities, customs, societal tendencies, etc. Which, when expressed in the story, just makes them all that much more interesting. This book, I feel, is definitely going in the right direction. My only criticism is that if we're going to see so much of Guy Gardner, just give the guy his own book. Keep this book for what it needs to be, to focus on the diversity of the corps.
