It's getting mixed--mostly just decent--reviews...

It's not a bad start, but nothing mindblowing. Could lead to some interesting developments though

I'll give it another issue or 2 of reviews then probably just back-issue or ignore it altogether...

I find it interesting that the Alpha Lanterns are doing some heavy handed recruiting in this issue and I am curious to see how this all comes to ahead. I am still enjoying this book. It should be interesting to see the addition of John Stewart: Honor Guard Lantern added to the mix and Ganthet as a Green Lantern has me all kinds of intrigued. I wonder if his ring will have any special properties or if there will be something different with his power battery. I guess what I am trying to say is that I am still in. Wink

#49 was real good, and better than the last one.

Spoiler:

The Weaponer should be interesting, too.

Green Lantern Corps #49


I really, really enjoyed this issue. I have to agree that it was better than last issue.

I LOVE Cyborg-Superman as a GL villain. I hope to see a lot more of him.

The art was great, though the fact that John's ring changed design in one panel did annoy me.

#49 was great. John Stewart in this series was really very good and I love how he's being written. The whole Alpha Lanterns is very cool and I cannot wait to see how this all plays out in #50. Great stuff.

Relatively new to the GL Corps but what separates the Alphas from the regular corps besides glowing eyes??

The Alpha Lanterns are like one part Green Lantern and one part Manhunter. The Manhunters were the creation of the Guardians before the Green Lantern Corps. The Alpha Lanterns were made originally I believe to be sort of like the Internal Affairs of the Green Lanterns. Also, their power battery is located in their chest maybe even taken the place of their heart. Hope that helps.

Good looking out Jaydee thanks. That would explain their robotic demeanor.

Yeah. I mean they are cyborgs in the sense that they used to be human and now they are robotic but I don't know how much of their humanity they actually retain if any at all which I guess is the whole point of this story. Boodika had a very fiery personality before being turned into a Alpha Lantern which is pretty much shown in John's description of Boodika pre Alpha Lantern. Yeah. I'm a pretty big Green Lantern fan so any questions you have, I am pretty certain I can answer for you.

Welcome to my sector of comic fandom. Wink

Yup.

Also, I loved how John Stewart was written in this book. Like the awesome soldier that he is. I cannot wait for him to be promoted to Honor Guard. At least I hope that's still the plan.

It does look that way but I gotta think if he does go all "Alpha", he'll revert by the end of the story arc.

I love that half of the forcibly made Alphas, like Bruun (chick with the horns) and Relok Hag (centaur), are all pre-existing Lanterns. Whether they revert back or not doesn't really matter since they're not very important, but it really appeals to my love of continuity. I think the flying manta ray one is new. At least, I don't recognize him/her/it.

I'm with you on that. It's nice to know that the writer(s) of this book has gone back to see previous Lanterns and use them. At least that's the feeling I get which is full of awesome.

I do really hope that if John becomes an Alpha Lantern it isn't permanent. I highly doubt it would be though.

I hope he doesn't. I'll drop this book if he does. That said, Ganthet doesn't have inherent powers of a Guardian? A Guardian can go toe to toe with Superboy Prime in yellow sunlight but can't handle a few Alpha Lanterns? Oye.

Yeah it seems he's kind of depowered a bit.

Well the jury's still out for me on Bedard but I'm definitely giving him a good chance. Agree with everyone, though, John Stewart was well handled in this issue.

I hope the Alpha Lanterns can be reversed also not just for the newly made ones but for the originals also (would be good to get Green Man back).

So why does a robot planet have sewers? Hmmmm. Maybe for other kinds of waste - grease and oil?

I'm not entirely sold on this arc yet. This feels like recycled storytelling to me. I hope Bedarad has an ace up his sleeve here...

I liked #50. Not amazing. I don't need another retread of Cyborg Superman's origin. I do want to see more Ganthet kicking butt. I am interested in seeing where this story goes when it comes to the Alpha Lanterns. I wonder if they will retain any of their humanity and still stay Alpha Lanterns. I gotta say, they are interesting but I don't like them as straight up robotic. So far, it's not bad but don't take my word at heart because I am bias when it comes to Green Lantern. I did like it.

I did not like #50. Bedard is starting to annoy me. That whole flashback at the beginning felt very clunky and artificial - just didn't feel natural storytelling to me. Really average writing.

I'm thinking I might stick with Tomasi on Guy's book and Johns on the main one until there's a change of writer here.

Green Lantern Corps #50


This was just meh. It wasn't the worst book ever, but it certainly wasn't really that good.

This did not feel like a 50th issue.

The flashback for Cyborg-Superman was a waste of time. If they need to catch readers up then the should add a damn recap page.

I did like the art.

If Cyborg-Superman wants to die so badly why doesn't he just throw himself into the sun or something?
