It’s great to see Green Lantern is getting good again; after a slump over the last few months where the issues didn’t feel as enjoyable as they were surrounding Blackest Night, we come to a resolution of sorts surrounding the New Guardians arc and the implementation of the entities into the main story. This issue focuses on Hal’s battle with a Parallax-possessed Flash, and sees the identity of the mysterious villain revealed, as well; it’s great fun, and shows that Geoff Johns clearly planned for the slump to end on a resounding crescendo. The art by Doug Mahnke is great, as ever, and draws us further into the space epic; the only flaw with this issue is that, for a space opera, we’re spending an awful lot of time on Earth, and maybe now is the time to head back out into the stars and see Green Lantern return to it’s space opera roots.
