This is another great issue of the Corps, and it looks like things have taken another step closer to
Blackest Night. Sodam Yat has used his Ion power to turn the sun of Daxam from red to yellow. He's doing this to allow his world a fighting chance. Even if it does mean that he's committing suicide. The survivors on his world have become enslaved by Mongul and the Sinestro Corps. But, with the sun changing to yellow, they'll all basically be given the power of Superman. But they're mad and angry, and thirsty for revenge. So Arisia has to calm them down to plan out their attack rather than letting them act out of blind emotion. It's a tenuous agreement at best. We also see the Ash and Saarek have both been tasked with finding the Anti-Monitor's corpse. Scar seems to be manipulating them to some end, but we don't know what that is yet. For the time being, they've agreed to work together. And back on OA, there's a whole lot of crap going down. The Corps are trying to round up all the recently released convicts from their sci-cells. The only thing working in their favor is that the prisoners are surprised by their release, so there's no real structure or team-work in their attack. In fact, some of them are just as mad at each other as they are at the Corps members. Lyssa Drax, from the Sinestro Corps, is tunneling deep into OA in search of her book of Parallax. Instead, she finds Scars book, and Scar soon traps her in it. Also, the rookies are tired of not being able to fight for their team-mates, so they band together to break the shield that contains them.
However, before they can do much, the Alpha-Lanterns show up and start to put a quick lid on everything. They seem to be containing all the prisoners in some kind of construct, but . . at that same time, Scar decides that it's time for her to make her move. She does something with her power, and her book, and on the final page of the issue, the Central Power battery begins to fall apart. Peter J Tomasi is doing a fantastic job with this book. Between him and Geoff Johns, over on the GL title, they've really intricately stitched together a fantastic story-line here. This is definitely going to be the story of the summer. Hats off, again, to Patrick Gleason for some fantastic visuals. I don't know how the guy does it, but he's drawn an incredibly eclectic assemblage of aliens here. The guy must have an incredible imagination. I never would've expected how strong this book has become. Get it. If you can.
