Well, with this issue, Guy and Kyle have decided to hang up their Earth-bound shoes, and take up permanent residence on OA. Actually, I think, after the whole war thing, plus they've both been out in space for quite a while now, that when they've come back to their normal lives, they're feeling a bit bored . . and listless. So they've made the decision together, since they couldn't make it on their own, and . . they are partners now in the honor-guard. Plus Guy figures he can just take his Warrior's stuff along, and open up a bar on OA. They do need a little diversity, after-all, from the cafeteria food. Once there, the interaction between Guy, Kyle and Salaak is just priceless. We also follow the Sinestro rings this issue. They're on a course to find new recipients. The Guardians are following them, but, half-way through their flight, something . . or somebody . . blocks their signals from them. They were trying to be pro-active, by finding out who ended up with the rings, but someone doesn't seem to want to let them have that advantage. Meanwhile, Mongul has been trying to learn everything there is to know about the ring that has been delivered to him. He intends to make every use of it's advantage, and, I think, he's decided to appoint himself the leader of the Sinestro Corps. Not a good development. Peter J Tomasi is doing a fantastic job with this book. I just really can't believe how much better it is, this time, as compared to it's last incarnation. But, I thought, Green Lantern Corps Quarterly was fantastic. They did some stuff in that book, that they couldn't do in the regular title. It's worth looking for. If you can find it. Patrick Gleason had some help on the art this issue. Which, I guess, I really can't blame him for, after the last few action packed issues. But, I hope he gets back to the solo stuff soon, because, it's much better that way. I'm sure he appreciates the other guys help this issue. But, they really didn't do the book justice. So hopefully, after a little rest, he'll get back to handling the art chores solo. But, other than that one small complaint, I thought it was a great book.
