A new life for Hal Jordan! I bought this in its single comic book issues, but I chosen this TPB edition to be able of making a better overall review. Hal Jordan is once again a member of the GL Corps, having John Stewart as his back up partner, in the space sector. Black Hand lost his right hand due a harsh judgment of The Spectre when Hal was still inside, and obviously wants payback. And… …the first option for space law officers of the Guardians of the Universe, the fearsome Manhunters are back, updated and under new management! Green Lantern is back and better than ever!

Anyway, I am on a perpetual quest to get into more of DC universe with books on my DC shelf, I still admit that I know next to nothing about it! How crazy is that? Unfortunately, the only good modern run of his character is written by Geoff Johns, whose books are almost always hard for me to enjoy for some reason. Villain after villain comes after him, from a robot Manhunter to german-speaking gremlins to No idea who he was. It gets a bit too convoluted near the end, just like most other Geoff Johns comics, as Some Dude starts pummeling Hal and pushing some ham-fisted message about the nature of humanity and life and death and all that. Not very subtle. And every other page there is somebody usually Hal himself who will say how fearless he is. Green Lantern as a superhero is also pretty fun, his abilities are cool and imaginative, and his suit looks rad. I am willing to give Johns another chance here to win me over, and will check out the next volume. Want to get my attention? Have the late, great Darwyn Cooke illustrate the opening chapter. It sets a nice, properly nostalgic tone since Hal Jordan and his GL origin is briefly again re-hashed for readers. From there we are also introduced to the intriguing new co-star character Captain Jillian 'Cowgirl' Perlman, a USAF pilot, and thrown into the rest of the 'Manhunter' plot that encompasses the volume. The first half or two-thirds of the bo 3. The first half or two-thirds of the book is just great. Curiously, around the time a trio of villains make their simultaneous appearance and the artwork changes. In one specific instance, the 'Shark' attack sequence seemed overly graphic for this otherwise middle-of-the-road type of book. Still, I'm curious to check the subsequent installment to see if things get back on track. Nov 26, Maria rated it really liked it Shelves: ebook , graphic-novel , dc. I've never been really interested with Green Lantern , but my friend is, and so far, he hasn't let me down with his recommendations, which is why I gave this a go. I was a bit traumatized when I watched the Green Lantern movie with Ryan Reynolds which was why I was a bit hesitant to read anything with that character. Surprisingly, it wasn't bad. I actually, kind of, like it, if only I understood what happened before the events of this. I wonder what happened and why everyone thinks he died. I w I've never been really interested with Green Lantern , but my friend is, and so far, he hasn't let me down with his recommendations, which is why I gave this a go. I wonder what it was he did that made him feel so guilty. On this six part issue, i felt that I knew Hal quite a bit now, as well as his family, and the people he works with. I liked the drama, i felt it worked well with the story. Hal fought quite a lot of monsters here, some more terrifying than others, and it puzzles me why he was the only one fighting them. There were a lot of other Green Lanterns out there, as you will see here, and Hal almost got himself killed quite a number of times and no backup arrived. The other GLs must have been so busy to help him out. The illustrations were great! I loved them. Overall, I really enjoyed it and would definitely be continuing on with the rest of this run.

Returning to Coast City, which was destroyed by Parallax and has now been rebuilt, Hal Jordan finds his return from death a difficult adjustment.

While trying to earn back his wings and reenter the Air Force, strange supernatural events occur: manhunter androids start killing people, a prototype jet using alien technology nearly crashes, the Green Lanterns Corps is reassembling, and an alien is broadsided in the middle of the desert. Hector Hammond, whose powers were acquired from a meteor in Africa, asserts that the "alien" was evolved by the same meteor. And then there's the B movie mutated shark attack! And the plane incident involving Gremlins! And then the Black Hand destroys everything in his path. Amazing read. Hector Hammond creeps the fuck out of me. View all 3 comments. I loved that this volume kicked off with Darwyn Cooke's art! I'm a big fan of his work and for me this was a definite treat. All in all this was an okay start to the reboot. I didn't enjoy it as much as Rebirth - but it got the ball rolling well enough. It was a little 'jumpy' but I managed to stay on target and had some fun with it. My favorite thing about Green Lantern has always been his corps. While there was a touch of that in here, most of it took place on earth. H I loved that this volume kicked off with Darwyn Cooke's art! All said and done, some great pictures and some fun adventure. Still, it just never really felt all that 'balls-to-the-wall'. I guess that can't be expected right off the hop, though. Good things come to those that wait. Mar 19, Martin rated it really liked it Shelves: reviewed. Good stories by Geoff Johns, which lay the groundwork for future storylines, such as Blackest Night. With amazing art, especially the three issues by Carlos Pacheco , this book is one that is a quick read and very easy on the eyes. Best story of the bunch here has to be the one with the Manhunters. No Man Escapes The Manhunters! Jul 08, Stephen rated it liked it Shelves: comics-graphic- novels. Flashes of excellent interspersed with a lot of okay is the best way I could describe this first Volume of the Green Lantern reboot. The excellent portions were enough to make me read the next volume, but I hope for a tighter story next go around. Jan 19, J. I was also bummed to find that Ethan Van Sciver only drew one issue of the six in this collection! I didn't mind Carlos Pacheco's art, but he's been better.
