Along with some of DC's most unique magical heroes, he descends into the underworld with some brilliant visuals and encounters an old friend who I definitely didn't expect to see again. This plot thread is fascinating, because it's delivering into an era of Hal's history that it's rare to see revisited. Read Full Review

Green Lantern #22 is a fun ride with plenty of action, charm, and a surprising number of obscure cameos. Jeremy Adams digs deep to give readers a sprawling adventure that reads more like an extended Justice League tale, and Xermnico's art is outstanding. That said, the plan to stop Sorrow Lantern feels oddly vague. Read Full Review

This issue produced two jaw drops, one of 2 minutes and one of thirty seconds as well as a fist pump and “hell yeah” followed by a genuine laugh out loud. What an issue with some great surprises and appearances you just don’t see coming. Jeremy Adams puts together another outstanding issue, one of the best of the series. No spoilers here, but you don’t want to miss this issue. Hal’s character is written perfectly and the surprises are truly unexpected and impactful. This is the book of the week!

A significant progress. And I've always loved to see Phantom Strangern and Hal teaming up.

As others have said, this issue is pretty sweet and has a couple of laugh out loud moments. This issue also felt a lot like 'point out silly trope' then proceed to dunk on silly trope. I can appreciate when this is done once in a while. Also all the characters felt like they were written quite in character and Hals outburts were pretty great. Still waiting for Sorrow to get beaten up or defeated in some way. Dude in annoying but I get he was written to be that way, just a mopey sob of a character. Whatever issue that occurs in might be a 10/10 lol Art is wonderful. Xermanico is great as always. Also Gnort is right where he belongs that #$@%#@ aberration. Jk... probably.

Happy Xermanico is back. But wow, Adams is throwing a lot of stuff at us. Dan Garrett AND Gnort?

I want to preface my remarks by stating I absolutely loved Adams’ introductory United Planets storyline, which was epic! By comparison, I feel like this Fractured Spectrum storyline is running out of gas prematurely. The plan to defeat the villains is a little fuzzy and underdeveloped, while the subplots involving Hammond and Hell and Dan Garrett are a bit distracting from the main storyline. The villains, Sorrow and Starbreaker, are underdeveloped and barely involved in the main storyline, resulting in a chapter that seems very…unfocused. I do have faith in Adams to pull it all back together in the next few issues.

If you haven’t read a lot of Green Lantern comics, this is basically incomprehensible.
