Kyle is trying to find peace with himself and what happened in the last volume but instead we get a zanny space adventure with the return of a certain Planet Lantern. Like I said, the characters and dialogue are top notch fun. I love the dialogue between Kyle and Green Lantern: Volume 4 and really all the characters. Feels well crafted and well But the actual plot of the bad guys here is silly, everything wraps up quickly, and the ending kind of leaves you like "okay what's next? This was a middle of the road adventure but it was pretty fun regardless. Jun 10, Douglas Gibson rated it really liked it. Winick continues to make me fall in love with Kyle Ranyer! Nov 30, A.

Dale Ealesham's art is also clean and mostly consistent. Even if it was healed upon Ganthet's return on p. Also, the extra content about the power rings, the three page timeline, and the family tree were cool. Maybe even the best parts of the book. Weaknesses: these issues didn't feel or read like one story and so the collection suffered as a whole. While the overall story of Kyle Rayner was nudged forward with each tale, the individual issues felt very individual. Where was issue ? What did have to do with any of the other issues included? Why introduce "Fatality" Green Lantern: Volume 4 the beginning of the book and then not come back to her again? And the same question applies for John Stewart in this book. Re: the title, who passed the torch? Also, GL's exile seemed more like cosmic pouting than anything else. Hadn't he already seen the worst of humanity? This could be debated, I'm sure. This book was a collection of the filler issues between major storylines in the comic. On a month-to-month comic reading schedule this can work well. Compiled into one book it just seems fragmented. As DC continues to re-publish every or almost every issue in trade paperback format I anticipate seeing more mediocre collections like this. Jun 28, M rated it it was ok. Having left Earth to reconsider his role as its protector, Kyle is helping rebuild Oa with the help of fellow GL Green Lantern: Volume 4 girlfriend Jade. Their space sojourn leads Green Lantern: Volume 4 to rediscover a long-lost Lantern, raise the reborn Guardians alongside Ganthet, and tackle the possibility of parenthood. Despite some fun couple moments with Kyle and Jade, the book feels uneven; most likely due to editorial trying to decide of John, Kyle, or Hal would be returning to the main book as its sole ring-slinger. This indecisiveness hurts the current protagonists, leaving them unable to truly move forward within their own stories. While the title does indicate a passing of the torch, this collection has already lost its fire. Jan 19, Eric Mikols rated it liked it Shelves: green-lantern. Judd Winick's whole run gets four stars, but the series does end less dramatically and with less fanfair than I would have liked. I really enjoyed reading about Kyle Rayner's adventures, and he Green Lantern: Volume 4 a decent supporting cast. Winick really just focused on telling strong, superhero stories with no frills. Oct 13, Sean rated it liked it. What Judd Winick has always excelled at has been interpersonal stories. Here, the strongest portions are not the super powers and alien battles. The drawback is that Winick's big picture action stuff leaves a lot to be desired. The book is hit Green Lantern: Volume 4 miss but Green Lantern: Volume 4 worth the read for the dialogue alone. Aug 22, Eric rated it it was ok Shelves: comicssuperheros. Again the cover fooled me. I was expecting to see pivotal points where the ring was passed on from one incarnation to another. Instead there was a series of stories about Kyle Rayner that really weren't that interesting. The history and family Green Lantern: Volume 4 in the beginning were the best part.

Green Lantern Volume 4 – Comicnewbies Green Lantern is the name of several superheroes appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. They have been adapted to television, video games, and motion pictures. This Green Lantern's real name was Alan Scotta railroad engineer who, after a railway crash, came into possession of a magic lantern which spoke to him and said it would bring power. From this, he crafted a magic ring which gave him a wide variety of powers. The limitations of the ring were that it had to be "charged" every 24 hours by touching it to the lantern for a time, and that it could not directly affect objects made of wood. Alan Scott fought mostly ordinary human villains, but he did have a few Green Lantern: Volume 4 ones such as the immortal Vandal Savage and the zombie Solomon Grundy. Most stories took place in New York. As a popular character in the s, the Green Lantern featured both in anthology books such as All-American Comics and Comic Cavalcadeas well as his Green Lantern: Volume 4 book, Green Lantern. After World War II the popularity of superheroes in general declined. When superheroes came back in fashion in later decades, the character Alan Scott was revived, but he was forever marginalized by the new Hal Jordan character who had been created to supplant him see below. Initially, he made guest appearances in other superheroes' books, but eventually got regular roles in books featuring the Justice Society. He never got another solo series. Between andDC Comics changed Alan Scott's superhero codename to "Sentinel" in order to distinguish him from the newer and more popular science fiction Green Lanterns. Inthe Alan Scott character was revamped. His costume was redesigned and the source of his powers was changed to that of the mystical power of nature referred to in the stories as "the Green". Hal Jordan's powers were more or less the same as Alan Scott's, but otherwise this character was completely different than the Green Lantern character of the s. He had a new name, a redesigned costume, and a rewritten origin story. Hal Jordan received his ring from a dying alien and was commissioned as an officer of the Green Lantern Corpsan interstellar law enforcement agency overseen by Green Lantern: Volume 4 Guardians of the Universe.
