Green Lantern Corps #26


One-sentence summary: The Mongul storyline concludes in an amazing explosion in this excellent title.

Man, when did every space title become awesome? On the Marvel side, all of Annihilation has just been incredible, and for the last 2 1/2 years Green Lantern has just again and again been one of the best titles in the DCU.

That continues this week. Both GL titles are taking a bit of a time-out from the mega-arcs they've been on, but while GL has been doing the origin story, GLC has been following Mongul and the Black Mercies. This issue concludes it in a thrilling fashion, giving us plenty of good fight panels, as well as an amazing finale to it. The conclusion is interesting, too, and goes to illustrate a bit about the green and yellow rings which, while obvious, was neat nevertheless.

So, yes, Green Lantern Corps maintains the record of space titles being awesome.
