Green Lantern Corps #34 - DC


Another fantastic issue in this series. Peter J Tomasi and Patrick Gleason are really doing an incredible job here. In the beginning of the story when Sodam Yat is yelling at his mother . . she's come in search of his help as Mongul has taken over Daxam . . the dialogue between them is perfect. Sodam is still upset that his 'people' killed and stuffed his alien friend, Tessog. Also he's infuriated that his own parents tried to force their world's racist ways down his throat. There also some touching dialogue between Kyle and Soranik. They're in love, but it's come at an inconvenient time . . the Guardians have just enacted the 3rd rule which bans intimate relationships between Corps members. However, it's also what both of them needs. Meanwhile on Zamaron, the rehabilitation of Kryb is still underway. To me it seems a bit naive that the Star-Sapphire's think that they can 'fix' this one. They may have bitten off more than they can chew here. We also see the outcome of the fight between Mongul and Arkillo. Arkillo challenged him for the leadership of the Sinestro Corps last issue. Was there ever really any question as to how this one was going to turn out? Finally, at the end, the Green Lanterns have captured, and incarcerated in one of the science-cells, a Red Lantern. However, it seems that this was just the thing that Scab needed to create an uprising right here on OA. I think things are about to get a lot worse before they get better. This is a great series. It seems to get better with every issue also. If you aren't reading it . . you definitely should. You won't be sorry.
