Opera di medio livello (Red Lanterns), con alti e bassi. Benes sembra rinato, migliorato tantissimo rispetto alle vecchie produzioni, Milligan fa una discreta trama anche se potrebbe fare qualcosa di più.

Green Lantern: New Guardians è carina, si apre in modo interessante e si va a screditare a trama inoltrata, lettura ideale per chi ha apprezzato la Notte più profonda e vuole leggersi un fumetto tranquillo, tronfio dei rappresentanti secondari dei vari Corpi delle lanterne.

Green Lantern Corps apre in maniera molto interessante, ha un forte calo nei numeri centrali della prima narrazione e si riprende sul finale con un espediente particolare che riesce a non stonare con il resto dell'opera. Ripercussioni molto particolari nel futuro di uno dei membri del Corpo delle Lanterne Verdi.

Where the last issue of Green Lantern Corps was a bit of a letdown, this issue did not disappoint at all. Peter J. Tomasi spends the majority of the issue introducing the next conflict, involving the Alpha Lanterns, as well as giving a lot of face time to everyone's favorite bad boy, Guy Gardner.

Recently, Peter J. Tomasi made some major waves on the Green Lantern Universe by having John Stewart kill one of his own Green Lanterns, Kirrt, when he was begin tortured into giving away information about Oa. The last issue dealt with the epilogue of that story but in a very corny, saccharine way. This issue goes immediately back the main story, but Tomasi puts most of the emphasis on Guy Gardner.

For a long time now, Guy has been a fan-favorite. He's crude and egocentric, but also quick thinking and stubborn — the right mixture for a great Lantern. Much of the issue focuses on Guy and his arrogance, and I couldn't help but love every page. Guy is at his arrogant best, but he's also reasonable and thoughtful. When he argues with Salaak about Sinestro being a Green Lantern again, I had to sympathize with Guy. While Salaak is the enforcer of the guardians, Guy is the sensibility of the Green Lantern Corps. He may be self-centered, but he also has the best interests of the Corps at heart, and this is fully on display in this issue. The Guardians have a new assignment for Guy, but given their sinister motives in the most recent issues, I don't trust their intentions.

I usually praise Green Lantern, and this time is no different. While Fernando Pasarin's art is clean and smooth, Scott Hanna's inks help the comic come to life. Each image is highly detailed, and Hanna knows when to add depth (usually in close up images involving shadowing on people's faces) and when to back off (particularly in the action sequences). Also, the colors of the comic are beautiful. Gabe Eltaeb does a phenomenal job adding green auras to the Lanterns, as well as changing the tone of scenes with a shift in color. As usual, Green Lantern Corps is, above all else, fun to look at.

I was wondering when Tomasi would come back to the elephant in the room that was John's killing of his fellow lantern. To see that finally addressed is exciting, as is the extra time given to Guy Gardner, particularly since Kyle Rayner now has his own series, New Guardians. Recently, Green Lantern scribe Geoff Johns teased a new story called "The Third War." This may be the beginning of it, and if things are going the ways they're hinted at, I see major changes in the Green Lantern universe. Now is a great time to jump on board.

Tra le due serie continuo a preferire NG perchè imprevedibile, ma GLC continua ad essere solida come serie, anche se vorrei Kyle scritto di nuovo da Tomasi (mi piace Bedard, ma il Kyle di Tomasi era stupendo)....
