    The main plot is excellent, but there are also some excellent hints at larger plotsincluding what Guy Gardner is going to be up to now. Adams' run is picking up steam just the way his Flash run did. Read Full Review

    Green Lantern by Jeremy Adams and company continues to be an excellent series with answers and exciting new questions that want to be explored. With this new issue, we see the fall of a favorite Lantern as we remember how dedicated these heroes are. If you haven't put this series on your pull list, get on it, as this issue is a great starting point. Read Full Review

    Green Lantern #7 is another great entry in the Jeremy Adams run of the book and this issue does a great job of bridging the narrative from the previous one to where we are today. The true agenda of the United Planets still remains to be reveled, but the slow burn has been a great ride so far. Nine out of ten lanterns. Read Full Review

    Nahuelpan delivers some beautifully detailed and visually immersive art throughout the issue. The visual style lends itself perfectly to the otherworldly action and adventure of Green Lantern. Read Full Review

    As a Green Lantern story, there is a good combination of drama and action although the writing could have benefited from less is more in the dialogue department. Still, its an enjoyable read and sets up an interesting arc going forward. Read Full Review

    Green Lantern #7 is an issue-long flashback answering the question of Kilowog's death. For his part, Adams gives readers a thorough depiction of events, showing how Kilowog gave his life doing his duty, even if his death feels meaningless. Whether or not Kilowog is truly dead remains to be seen. Read Full Review

    Green Lantern #7 missed the mark in terms of its artistic nature. The dull colors and disproportionate characters looked different in a variety of panels. The illustrations lacked detail and the realism this comic once had that frankly this reviewer loved. The story itself wasnt bad but it was slow-moving and didnt have the punch fans are used to with this series. Plus, the normal, subtle humor and organic plot development that Adams infuses into his stories wasnt present this month either. This very well could be the worst issue in the run so far.

    I'm enjoying this run. It's fresh but grounded in tradition. All of the main characters are spot-on. The art is spectacular. I would grade it a 10 but for the backup story. Good to know this is spinning off as a new title because I could not have less interest in a book aimed at 10-year-olds. I would have preferred another 8 pages of the main story. I hope future issues don't include back-up stories a la Tales of the Green Lantern Corps. However, with the team splitting off in different directions, it would appear inevitable. As long as the tone and quality of the main story are maintained, it will be OK with me.

    I really love the interaction between Hal and Sinestro in this issue. Also the backup story is shit. Just stop it, Tomasi. Nobody likes your cheap copy of supersons.

    This issue offered quite the curveball in the best way possible. Jeremy Adams rips back the curtain on so much of the story that happened before his Green Lantern #1 occurs, without making it feel like he was trying to pull wool over the reader's eyes. It was a really well crafted and timed unveiling of what Hal's been through and the trauma he still deals with because of it. Adams also fills gives context to explain Sinistro's present-day motives. I really enjoyed all these new details which gives us a brand new perspective on the story Adams is telling. I wouldn't be shocked if we got a few more twists and turns along the way. Amancay Nahuelpan steps in for Xermánico on art duties on this issue and does a standup job, especially giving u more

    Superb issue despite a good, not great, fill-in artist. Adams pays off much of the mystery he set up in the first 6 issues with a fantastic story featuring our favorite corps legends, while teasing several new mysteries at the same time! It's so nice to have the GL franchise back on track this year, and it reminds me of the peak era 15 years ago when Johns was on fire.

    After the amazing and off the wall issue that was #6, this was a good slower pace that set up the conflict with Sinestro and leads into questions why he may be around Earth in the present. Let's get the fan service out of the way; it's very cool to see all of Earth's Green Lanterns in a line up, even if most of them didn't get anything to say (but Guy got the best page, that's what counts). Not to go into spoilers but a very integral plot point is revealed regarding Kilowag's apparent d**** and a negotiation talk goes south after a group of Yellow(?) Lanterns crash the meeting in what can only be called an assassination attempt on the new leader of Oa. It's evident that Jeremy Adams has extensive understanding of the characters that are more

    Another solid issue by Jeremy. Art was a step down but still quite good. So overall no complaints there. Good action, GL actually policing was nice. Get to see a bit of the mystery box opened and the 'death' of ol'Kil. Poor guy. I dont think he is dead though with all the oddities of the emotional spectrum. Adams is keeping the cards close to his chest with what is really going on, the underlying big issue that keeps getting hinted at but never revealed. I love how each issue has its own plot moving forward with Jordan but we have a much larger overlying plot that we get drip fed. This feels like stories of old, where multiple lines of plot were going on at once with hints dripped here and there. This feels like this was written in a better more

    A strong issue here, possibly the strongest of the series thus far, but it doesn't quite reach the 9/10 mark for me. Nahuelpan's art was solid, but it doesn't quite match up to what we've been getting in the past six issues from Xermánico. Either way, I thought Adams wrote a good, engaging story to give us some context as to what happened between the previous Green Lantern run and this current one. I continue to look forward to what comes next. One other point I want to make is that I'm glad we're done with the current run of backup stories. They've never been bad, but they've also never got me super interested. That said, I am excited that it seems Kyle Rayner will be getting a backup story in the next issue.

    This felt more like an issue of Green Lantern than any of the others. I'm friends with Jeremy and I love to support his work, but Hal having all of the powers of every spectrum and producing Kilowag as a living, breathing entity rather than a green construct is weird to me. This felt back to basics. They're cops protecting their bosses. I do like how they replaced the Guardians. I was wondering how that was going to go since the Guardians have been a staple of GL for decades. My Comic Review Channel - https://youtu.be/qmkQnhPWN3E

    Fuck it, I agree with the United Planets there's already too many heroes at Earth.

    Not a bad issue, but I don't appreciate the narcissism this shows toward Jordan and it feels like that's the driving force here. it feels like he is the only lantern here or more like it's only the earth lanterns that matter and Killowog a bit. The thing with the UP is treated as such a small mundane thing when everything leads me to believe that should not be that. Part of the reason is how nobody really reacts to them, there is not much build-up to their coming and only the earth lanterns communicate with them, as if they are the only lanterns. The United Planets do not give any vibes of authority when again we are led to believe they are. But even any vibe at all, they sound tired tbh. but the arguments they make are really sound. more
