Wow! This is quickly becoming one of the hottest stories on the shelves right now. We don't learn a whole lot this issue about the whole Sinestro Corps thing. Or how or why the Qwardians are all wrapped up in it. But we do see that they are basically the Corps' members slaves. Since they're a warrior race, I don't think that this relationship will be stable for all that long. But we'll have to wait and see about that. Something we do learn this issue, as does Natu, is that the GL rings won't allow their bearers to take lethal action. She is fighting Sinestro, over the future of Korugar. She tries to do the surgical approach and take him out with a missle, but her ring won't allow it. " . . . now you've seen the true weakness of the lantern power rings. They lack the power to kill. And without the fear of death . . . what being will truly fear those who wield them?" But Sinestro has plans for her, whether she'll come over to his side or not. He's going to let the people of Korugar believe that she may have defeated him, and in doing so ensure that they'll demand that she guards and leads them. I guess so his planet will be safe until he returns. Who really knows what his motives are? Meanwhile, across the rest of the universe, Green Lanterns are being mowed down like sheep. There's more and more falling in every chapter of this story. I don't think any of the big-guns have gone down yet. But, it's only a matter of time before Sinestro goes after some to aid in the psychological defeat. Plus we haven't really seen what Kyle, Superboy or the Anti-Monitor are doing to aid Sinestro in this war. We know they're there, but we haven't seen them in to much action. Yet! This story is just beginning, so I'm sure we still have a long way to go. At the very end of this issue, we see that Mogo is the next GL to come under serious attack. I think it's going to be by Ranx. Phenomenal story. Very riveting.
