The Psions have done the unthinkable: captured and incapacitated the Guardians themselves! Can Carol and Kyle get to them in time? Or will the Psions discover the secret of ultimate power locked inside the Guardians very DNA?
Overall, I think this is the best single issue of Jordan's run. The interplay between Kyle and Carol is believable and fun. I'm glad that the Psions have kept their driving need for knowledge in this incarnation, even if a lot of the rest has changed. The art had some really amazing pages, as well. I highly recommend this series, and this issue, to anyone. Read Full Review
Justin Jordan returns to what makes his take on this book so great. Kyle and Carol are reunited and Jordan charmingly pokes fun at his own book over the craziness that Kyle has recently been through. It's honest, funny, and gets us right back where we need to be. Read Full Review
This is actually quite a unique issue for mainstream superhero comics. Horror is a theme very, very rarely attempted and, as a result, seeing it pulled off effectively is an even rarer treat, and one that deserves both spotlight and praise. This arc has already gone to some very weird, disturbing places, and it doesnt look to be letting up as we're only in issue two. Read Full Review
As the second installment of a multi-issue arc, GREEN LANTERN: NEW GUARDIANS #33 isn't the best place to jump in, especially with a much more convenient starting point back at #31. But if you've got a taste for sci-fi and interpersonal drama set against the backdrop of alien body horror, this is the book for you. And if you don't? Give it a shot anyway. You might find yourself pleasantly surprised. Read Full Review
The horror continues this issue as we discover the new/old origin of the Psions. The main appeal for me in this issue is that we've got Kyle back together with his New Guardians team and we explore the emotions that present themselves with Carol and being forced to face the horrors of the Psions. It's a good issue and moves the story along to our heroes meeting the big bads face to face. So go check out this suspenseful issue and have a good time seeing Kyle back in action with his lady love.

My rating for this comic will likely be lower than other reviews that are written for this issue not because of my disdain for the budding romantic relationship but for the fact that issue doesn't move the story along much further than providing some background detail on the antagonists for this arc, information for anyone who remembers the Psions that added nothing new. While I can't give this issue much in terms of substance I do credit both Justin Jordan and the art teams with well earned style points. What the issue lacks in overall narrative it makes up for in tone and atmosphere. Three out of five lanterns. Read Full Review
The issue itself was another solid one in this long run for the New Guardians. It was all over the place in terms of emotion but it never took this reviewer out of the story. While there some problems they were minor at best and didn't hinder the enjoyment of the issue, Read Full Review
The new Psions fall flat. I'm hoping this is all a front for something to be revealed later, because they are just rehashes of other franchises' villains. Read Full Review
