Collects: Green Lantern Corps #1-7

Peter J. Tomasi is also writing one of my favourite of DC’s New 52 titles: Batman & Robin. On the strength of that series, I decided to try out the zero issue for Green Lantern Corps. I enjoyed that, so when this book came out, I figured I’d give it a try. I’m still relatively new to the Green Lantern mythos, but the more I read the more I enjoy. This book was a fun read, but it didn’t quite rise to my expectations. The second half of the book, however, taps into the emotional darkness Tomasi is very good at writing.

DC Comics New 52 #0s… (2nd Batch)

One more selection of DC New 52’s #0 issues, which I read on a bit of a whim. A broader mix, I think, with a couple more thus-far not read series. There were a couple of surprises and a couple of very promising issues that have managed to change my mind. As a result, there are now some more series I will be checking out.
