I am surprised that this only has 3.5 star rating on Goodreads , coz honestly I had a proper blast reading this .
This one continues from the previous appearance of General Zod and his family in Action comics , and from the first panel this is full of action as Zod family deliver the ass kicking of a lifetime to nearly all the big GL corps member .
The book showcases how powerful Zod actually is , and by the end of the book , we are also witness to the awesomeness of the greatest Green Lantern to ever live .
The art style really complements the story ,as panel after panel action scenes are depicted both beautifully and in detail making the reading experience awesome
And honestly I don't know why this is rated so low on Goodreads , coz Epic action sequence and setting in motion a mysterious evil masterplan by Zod family , I mean I really like where this is headed . A definite recommend 4 out of 5 stars for me

Synopsis: The Green Lantern Corps encounter Zod and his family on the planet Jekuul. Hal and Kyle engage them without the Guardians' permission, because the Guardians, of course, want to take a super long time to discuss the issue. The Guardians intervene on Jekuul and tell the Lanterns to go home, which they reluctantly do. During this whole thing, at one point Hal and Kyle lost their rings and got them back, but Zod did get something from the rings. At the end, Zod tells Ursa and Lor that he downloaded all the statistics for all sectors in the universe.
Review: Didn't care for this one. It felt like a filler arc that didn't really have any consequences and only affirmed what everyone knew: the Guardians being back sucks. I was so annoyed when they were like "oh, we need to convene about this first." Fuck you. Even with Ganthet and Sayd with them, they're still assholes and I have yet to see how this arrangement is different from before. Why should they be allowed to veto John's orders? He's been leading the Corps just fine without them. Whatever.
It's action packed and pretty to look at, but there's not much substance there. Hal does some impressive shit yet again, which I love, so 2 stars.

Zod has always been an interesting villain and this volume shows what a formidable opponent he is (together with his family of Kryptonians). Kyle was not looking great this issue with how injured he was in the fight, but seeing Hal and him team up to work their way out of this one was amazing. Hal is stubborn and smart and Kyle has all the willpower worthy to be a Green Lantern. The solidarity the Corps holds with each other was my favorite part of the issue. When it comes down to it, if they have to disobey orders in order to fight for each other, they all will. I'm almost done with this run and I'm going to be quite sad when it's over because it's been such a positive experience.
