Buonissimo numero di Venditti con un Van Sciver che non delude mai. Pieno di twist a questo giro, dove alcune cose ci stavano anche tanto

Spiacente, ma non sei autorizzato a visualizzare il contenuto degli spoiler.

It should surprise no one that Ethan Van Sciver absolutely kills it on the artwork in this issue. We've said it many times before, but he's simply one of the best Green Lantern artists and the book really comes to life with his pencils. Van Sciver gives this issue all of the epic visuals that anyone could ask for, but there's only so much an artist can do to salvage a story. Robert Venditti had a very intriguing take on the Green Lantern Corps' partnership with the Sinestro Corps, one which he seemed eager to destroy within the last few issues. That destruction finally comes in this issue, but not in a satisfying manner. The heel turn in this issue felt so forced that I kept waiting for the inevitable reveal that the person in question was being mind-controlled. That moment never came, which means that we're expected to believe in this massive change-of-heart despite it flying in the face of all previous characterizations for this Lantern. That is pretty hard to swallow, and it detracts from the overall reading experience. -Blair

Final Score:

6.7/10

Si comincia!
Ottimo tempismo per parlare dei New Gods, questo mese sarà fantastico!
Tra l'altro io ho ADORATO la storyline di GodHead, probabilmente la mia preferita scritta da Venditti, perchè quando è ispirato... riesce a dire tante belle cose!
Vediamo se questa sarà in qualche modo legata a Metal!

Quindi New Gods fa da incipit a questa nuova saga, giusto?

[Man of Steel]

Erm...in che senso da incipit? Parli di GodHead? Probabilmente sì, è ancora presto per dire, però abbiamo Orion e molto probabilmente vedremo anche Highfather!

[No Use For A Name]

Mi riferivo al one-shot New Gods.

[Man of Steel]

Ah nono, quello non c'entra niente con questo, era solo per festeggiare il "100th anniversary" di Kirby, tutto qua!

[No Use For A Name]

Ah ok, visto il nuovo arco su GL, pensavo fosse collegato.

[Man of Steel]

Non penso sia una coincidenza, e va bene così!

This issue of Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps seems destined to be confusing whether you've read Metal or not. It's a pretty intrusive crossover after Robert Venditti destroyed his own status quo in the last issue, for reasons that still aren't very convincing. This isn't Venditti's strongest outing, as his leads have some very out-of-character moments while declaring their friendship for each other. It's very on-the-nose, and Venditti's take on one of the classic New Gods doesn't even seem like the character that we've seen before. Fortunately, Rafa Sandoval picks up most of the slack with a very strong issue. No one is going to confuse Sandoval's art style with Ethan Van Sciver's, but Sandoval is also well-suited for the Green Lanterns. His pages make the issue worth reading, even if the threat to the universe looks like it escaped from a different comic company. Hopefully this isn't the shape of the Metal crossovers to come. -Blair
