![]() Rating: - Bad art brings down this trade!While the general plot and storyline are pretty good the art by Patrick Gleason and Dave Gibbons takes some of the seriousness away from the book. The ultra-cartoony aspects of the art also make it hard to take in some of the scenes. I usually focus on the writing first but here its hard to avoid. Overall, just a decent read that could have been so much better. Rating: - Highly recommended.The idea of the Green Lantern Corps is one of the genuinely genius concepts in the DC universe, and Green Lantern Corps: A Dark Side of Green, achieves success at exploring it to it's fullest potential.

Rating: - What are the Green Lantern Corpse?This trade is comprised of two different storylines. The opening three issue arc introduces us to the Green Lantern Corpse, an unknown covert black ops style faction of the GLC that will do the dirty deeds others will not or should not do. Keith Champagne's fascinating new premise in the GL lore is an absolute winner, with much to be further explored and developed down the road along with paving the path for a plethora of interesting plot possibilities. He barely scratched the surface here and certainly ... Read More Green Lantern Corps: The Darker Side Of Green. Buy superhero comic book collectibles at the Superhero Mall! |
