La historia está muy interesante. Me encantó la dinámica de los personajes. Aunque siento que quedaron algunos cabos sueltos pero quizás se resuelvan en War of the Green Lanterns. Aún así le pongo 5 estrellas porque sin duda la leería de nuevo.

just when Green Lantern deserves a rest...oh no! A whole new devastating crisis...
Couple noteworthy quotes:
Intergalactic Bounty Hunter of the Universe, Lobo: "Feetal's gizz! Ya can't swing a dead cat without hittin' someone wearin' a power ring anymore! I don't know what god ate a rainbow and threw it up across the universe - but I'm gonna find out so I can shove it back down hs throat! You flying glow fairies have been clogging up the place - and it ain't big enough for all a' us!"
Great quote from the new queen, Star Sapphire: "Destiny doesn't exist, Hal. Life happens. And we all make a choice when it does."

Taking place after the main events of Blackest Night, would you believe a new threat is forming that endangers all of the Lanterns and requires everyone to team up? You would? You think that this whole saga starts to feel more like a marketing scheme to sell a bunch of special issues and series?
Well, yeah...comics is a business. I get that in the end sales are the driving force, but it starts to feel like this story is chopped up and spread wide less because it makes sense to do so than because it amounts to more pages, more issues and more money.
Don't get me wrong, this is a perfectly enjoyable series, I just find I almost never think about any of the individual elements once I finish the story, I just move on to the next.
Geoff Johns does clearly have a vision and he does execute it well, the individual characters are well done, and I definitely want to read more, I just also start to feel like I will never be done reading these sagas and they are going to spiral forever and I won't be finished until my wallet runs dry.

A fun look at the War of Light, and it's great to get more in-depth into this side of the Green Lantern mythos.

I read this before, and on that reading this seemed like an incomplete story. In the meantime I've read the brightest day comics (and did not really like them) and this time this story makes way more sense. So be warry of the fact that this is a tie in in the brigthest day event and that you need to read those books, to understand this book.
But reading this I can't shake the feeling that the whole brightest day event was meant as a backdrop for this green lantern story. Geoff Johns tells a way better and more compelling story in this trade then in the brightest day main books. here at least I had an idea what was on stake, who the characters were, and why they did what they did. And the main thread in this story makes the brightest day story also a bit more believeable.
I'm still having fun with the green lantern books, so I'm still on board for the series.

Probably my favorite GL book from Johns's run. It has humor in the form of the always greedy Larfleeze, and I love whenever all the color corps are together for a common cause. Fun book with colorful visuals!
