What a fantastic book. This is probably one of the best books on the market right now. It's got so many things going for it right now. First is Geoff Johns writing. Well . . . that in conjunction with Dave Gibbons over on Green Lantern Corps, and they're putting together a fantastic epic about the battle between the Green Lantern Corps and the Sinestro Corps. Great stuff. Then we have the amazing art and covers by Ivan Reis. Man . . this guy gets better and better every issue. And he's already amazing! His take on these characters is nothing short of brilliant. Then . . to top it off, we have a interstellar cast of characters. There's Hal Jordan, Kyle Rayner (possessed by Parallax), Sinestro, the Anti-Monitor, the Cyborg Superman, Superboy (earth prime), and the entirety of the Green Lantern Corps. And that's just the main characters. I'm telling you this book is visually, and story-wise, absolutely stunning. If you aren't on this band-wagon, you need to get there soon. I really don't think that DC realized what a hot commodity they were going to have on their hands with this story-line. Between the 2 books, the Sinestro Special, and a few after-math specials, this is turning out to be the event of the summer. And honestly, this book is non-stop from the opening page with Natu, to the final page with Lyssa Drak, " . . the keeper of the book of Parallax" Ok, there's one calm page. It shows Superboy sitting, calmly, eerily staring. He's out in space, on the moon maybe, and he laughs and says, "Stupid Earth." He's looking kind of psychotic actually. Want to know what happens next? Then get out there and buy the damn thing!
