    Reporting for duty

    In what seems to be a continuing trend across the entire Blackest Night series, the action is relenting here as is the immediacy of the plot.  At the end of the previous issue we saw the arrival of Mogo, here we see what Mogo has planned.  First though the Lanterns have to deal with the continued assault on the Central Power Battery.  Kyle decides (against the advice of others) to try to get the red power ring off of Guy, but then Mogo decides that the time for action is then and there.  The solution to the assault of the Black Lanterns is handled well, and really forms the main part of this issue, its just that the other parts are not as strong in comparison.  Still a decent overall issue, just the story arc in itself seems to be lagging a bit at the moment.

      This is hands down one of the best issues of Green Lantern Corps the art is some of the best that I’ve seen and two of the splash pages are frame worthy. There were some problems it follows the type of story we’ve all come to know and love (if you don’t know what I’m talking about BL shows up, torments then a deus ex machina happens) well at least the third part of the pattern but it is used to set up the next part of the story. With all of the set up for Red Lantern Guy Gardner you think he’d g...
