It's probably too early to ask this question but I wanted know other people's opinion on the current run.

What's the difference between Geoff Johns' run and Robert Venditti's run ? Is it good ?

It's good so far, It's not blowing me away but it's good. I was actually getting bored with Johns towards the end of his run so I welcomed the creative change and i'm giving it a good solid chance.

I read the first two issues it was average but he seems to be building to another event. What bothers me is once again its DC attempting to corner you into buying multiple books to understand what is going on.

Its good and the new villain and cross over seem interesting if you like johns run this should be a good substitute

It is normal.It's not brilliant because there have been only three issues but it will become better probably.

Less than a handful of issues in, I'm enjoying it.

I feel like it's still kind of ramping up but it's good.

Its fairly good in my opinion. I wasn't the hugest fan of John's GL, so I guess there isn't much for me to compare it to. I recommend it.

Nothing spectacular yet because not enough issues have been out but I am enjoying it. Lights Out will be a good judging point.

@ccraft: @life_without_progress:

It's good. V-Ditti (as us fanboys call him) is one of my favorite writers. I like what he's doing with the title thus far.

Its hard to compare anyone to Geoff Johns when it comes to Green Lantern because the dude redefined the whole universe. He took GL and made it arguably DC's biggest title. The new and young fanbase for GL being so big now is all because of johns' mythology building.

That being said, V-Ditti is probably the best choice to carry the torch. He knows how to pay respect to what came before, yet forge ahead with his own ideas creating new intersting stories. Johns laid out the groundwork, now V-Ditti has a big sandbox with which to have fun and tons of avenues to explore that Johns didnt. V-Ditti is a great, epic storyteller. So it seems its going for that grand type epic with GL. For those who don't know, read his X-O Manowar as proof.

I hope this helps without giving much away. Basically if you're a GL fan you're lucky to follow up Johns with V-Ditti. The dude knows how to keep his readers happy.
