Big swing on this one. Alan killing the unseeing and them saying how beautiful the Starheart is... I feel like there is a lot going on there and a lot more information to take from that then I can appreciate but that was a great start. The united planets governing body being torn apart by their own weapons is great. You still see the structure and the power they have but it is quickly cracking. And as we know in real life, when the corrupt structure falls, sometimes what is left in its wake is even worse. With that in mind, that is what keeps me turning these pages. Adam is just winning non-stop here. I love everything about this run. Also what in the world was Sinestro rage punching Mogo. That was... that was just so much fun! A bit of a cop out but a super fun one at that! Like a moment of action insanity that I enjoyed. And that last page... Adams and Xermanico just knocked it out of the ball park- Kyle lives! This run continues to bring out child like joy of superheroes that almost no other comic in modern times has been able to do. I cannot say enough good things about this run. more

this is pretty underrated. It's cosmic space stuff but the dialogue and writing are executed well

I like how this series feels very scifi, more than most GL runs. I like how all of the normal colors for the characters are being swapped. We all knew that Kilowag wasn't dead, but him coming back as a yellow lantern is unexpected. Meanwhere, the head of the yellow lanterns is a red lantern who goes after Mogo. Thaaros is a Darkstar. Interesting stuff. I missed seeing Carol/ Star Sapphire in this issue. My Comic Review Channel - https://youtu.be/H-a8eggTES4

My thoughts and feelings towards this issue are very similar to those I had towards the last issue (#16), so I'd recommend reading my review of that. Aside from that, though, I will say that it was nice to get a stronger focus on Kyle Rayner this time around. Hopefully that continues, maybe even in the upcoming Green Lantern Corps series.

The art is stellar. The story is kind of a muddle, though if the Gls don't know what is going on, why should we?

Did adams know Hal is supposed to be the protagonist of the book? 3 points for Sinestro. Rest is abomination.
