Green Lantern

Summary

Kyle arrives at his apartment beat up and bloodied, Donna tends to his wounds as he recounts what happened. He fought with neron and the demon lord tried to sway him to his cause by way of offering him the opportunity to bring Alex back from the dead. After he refuses Neon beats the snot out of him and he barley manages to leave with his life. Donna tries to tend to him but he decides he must warn the titans so they take neron out before he can get that “purer soul” he told Kyle about one that can only belong to Superman. He suits up and gets ready to leave.

Elsewhere the cripple who neron gave his power and gave back his legs in exchange for getting rid of Kyle, neron appears to him and tortures him until he agrees to engage kyle. He finds Kyle at home and attacks him and Donna. Kyle keeps him busy while Donna evacuates the building, she runs into a very concerned for Kyle model who kyle met a few issue back.

Kyle then defeats the man and neron takes him to hell. When firemen arrive to douse the flames Kyle is entranced by the models’ ½ naked body, Donna is not pleased. Kyle then quickly departs to converge with a meeting of the justice league on the moon.

The Good

Drama- I am a fan of drama in my comic book (shoot me a lil y&r   is good) and in this issue the otherwise boring couple gets its first dose of drama in the form of Alison the model who kyle just can seem to keep his eyes of   off. Great stuff, these human moments always add some much needed depth to the average issue.

Characterization- all characters acted based on established normal behavior for them, which is good.

Action- the fight scenes were well choreographed and written able to keep action junkies happy.

Art- the pencils, pens and coloration continue to add much needed weight to the story while maintaining a good comic book feel.

The Bad

While the issue lacked wow factor……… it was better than last issue

The Ugly

3.5/5 stars
