Green Lantern Corps 2 - 5

Once again, I went into this issue expecting not to like the space-opera storytelling. But once again, I was pleasently surprised. I am diggin the whole murder mystery feel of it and I have suspicion that Ragnor or whatever his name is is behind it all. I do hope that Natu isn't dead. I like her character a lot. The art is pretty good too.

Wow, Gibbons just keep surprising me with these issues. This issue brought out a lot of emotion in me. I was sad to see Ragnar's execution, I know he was a killer, but he seemed so sad to die, and sad to see his sister become a green lantern and not him. It was kind of upsetting. Next issue should be less sad and more Guy Gardener fun. But anyways, this was another great issue.

I think this was my favorite issue so far. I loved everything about it. The Guy Gardener moments were so reminiscent of his JLI days and it really made me smile. I wasn't reading comics during the JLI era but I have recently gone back and read them and to my surprise I did like them a lot. Anyways, the Natu visiting her dead partner's parent's home was great. It paralelled how parents often feel when their child dies in the military. And I love those thanagarian lizards, they make me laugh.

I liked this issue a lot as well. I love how Gibbons is portraying Mogo as the therapist for the Green Lantern Corps. I always thought the idea of a planet that is a Green Lantern so awesome so I am glad Mogo is being featured. I think I am liking this series even better than the main Green Lantern series. Bravo.
