The Green Lantern is a jewel in the DC lineup. Its midseason finale is thrilling, engaging and leaves one wanting more. This is All-Star Green Lantern. Read Full Review

Granted, a few moments might take a re-read to fully digest, but it's well worth the time and effort, and ultimately rewarding as the possibilities going forward are just as exciting. Read Full Review

Morrison, Sharp, and Oliff work together to make something truly magical for longtime fans of the Lantern mythos as well as anyone looking for a new point to jump in. Their ability to bring entirely new aspects to this series while still using deep cuts and continuity long since forgotten displays the affinity and love for these characters and the medium as a whole from all parties. The Green Lantern continues to set itself apart from not only its predecessors but from any other book currently on the market. Read Full Review

The Green Lantern #6 is an amazing conclusion (maybe!) to the Controller Mu story that sets the series up for what might be an interesting bit of introspection as Hal Jordan is sent on a whole new journey. The creative team is going to have fun with what's ahead and I can't wait to see where the book goes. The Green Lantern is a big bright shiny emerald light in the DC Comics catalog right now!

Whatever bizarre cosmic walkabout he's planning for Hal on those final pages, this is easily the most invested I've been in a Green Lantern run since Geoff Johns' days. Read Full Review

If this creative team keeps going at the rate they are, this could easily become one of my favorite Green Lantern runs to date. Read Full Review

I am a little sad to say the prolific Steve Wands' letter work is perfectly serviceable, but a couple steps down from industry legend Tom Orzechowski, who is taking a couple issues off presumably to work on Spawn #200, a series he helped launch. Read Full Review

Even if everything isnt completely clear this issue, Green Lantern is the most ambitious and challenging superhero comic DC is putting out right now. While its not the strongest installment, theres enough here to be excited about where Morrison and Sharp are taking the title next. Read Full Review

Green Lantern #6 is an exciting conclusion to the first chapter of Controller Mu's larger story. The artwork heightens the tension that is inherent to an issue where Hal Jordan has to kill Adam Strange. I've read this issue 3 times now, and each time I like it even more than the previous read. You are sucked in from the start and it leaves you wondering what is next for Mu. Before we find out, we need a break and I am very excited to see what Morrison, Sharp, and Oliff do with our new big bad and the emerald wasteland Hal finds himself trapped in. Read Full Review

If you are a Green Lantern fan or a fan of Morrison, this is a fantastic issue and I highly suggest you pick up this series. Its a must have for anyones pull list that loves the wild sci-fi stories. So for me this issue get 4.5 stars out of 5 and I look forward to this series with Grant Morrison at the helm. Read Full Review

I feel the same way after I read an issue of The Green Lantern as I do after watching an episode of Twin Peaks. I am not 100% sure what I saw or what it was about, but I liked it. We saw some crazy visuals and it had familiar story points, and then it went in an odd direction. And, much like a Twin Peaks episode, I immediately wanted to talk with somebody about it. The Green Lantern #6 is a great "episode" in this series; if you have been liking it so far, then you will adore this issue. Read Full Review

Hal Jordan has to kill Adam Strange to maintain his cover as a Blackstar. Hal saves Adam Strange but blows his cover in the process, putting the universe at stake. Hal apparently saves the universe, but disappears in the process. Where is Hal and will he know how to return to our universe? Read Full Review

The Green Lantern #6 was another fantastic issue by Grant Morrison and Liam Sharp. These two just continue to outdo themselves with each passing issue. They understand how to escalate things quickly and play up the drama of different moments. With Hal Jordan now stuck inside the mysterious world of his Green Lantern ring who knows what will happen next. And its that state of unknown that will continue to make The Green Lantern one of DC Comics best comic books on the market right now. Read Full Review

Bottom Line: It's rare that a comic builds up to a face-off or a pivotal turn of events and actually delivers well. If this weren't already an entertaining book, that would be enough to justify putting your money here. Morrison still has a winner on his hands. Read Full Review

A showdown for the ages - Hal Jordan and Adam Strange. This issue takes a serious look at what happens when we lose faith in our protectors. Read Full Review

The new issue of The Green Lantern takes some really interesting turns, while delivering a fun, old school adventure. Read Full Review

There's a stylistic gimmick happening here that somewhat supersedes actual Green Lantern characters or continuity. If you enjoy the gimmick, like I do, then you could enjoy this book. If you're Eric, then this series will leave you furious. Read Full Review

Next time, we get Emerald Sands and hopefully a resolution to a weird ending that left a lot to be desired. Read Full Review

The plotting feels a little rushed, but the art is weird enough to sell even the strangest parts of the plot, and the ending is ominous and moody. I like it! Read Full Review

Though we know the universe still exists, just what actions Hal took remain a mystery as is the fate of the Green Lantern. Just where have he, the Darkstars, and the U-Bomb been taken? For fans. Read Full Review

Asfor where the story leads, I am uncertain. The future of Green Lantern seemsless about traditional super-heroing, and more about a grand cosmic adventure.But thats par for the course at DC Comics these days. Everything must be doneon an epic scale, because small, personal stories to which every reader canrelate just doesnt measure up anymore. Read Full Review

Really stunning art. Loved the silver age vibe.

I really appreciate how full these issues feel, with plot and movement. This didn't play out as I expected, and I love it.

Pure silver age extravaganza! I continue to love this book!

Grant Morrison is really good at pandering to my GL Silver Age nostalgia, but even that aside the book is just good. Controller Mu is actually a pretty intimidating villain, I dig it.

What a great issue. Morrison definitely knows what he's doing here as all the pieces finally fit together. Liam Sharp's artwork is just insane as well. This is one of the best books out on the stands these days.

THE GOOD:

-This comic continues to be a stellar series, and one I look forward to consistently.

-Liam Sharp was great. There wasn't as much for him to draw this time around, but he still knocked it out of the park.

-I really liked the Green Lantern/Adam Strange shootout arena scene.

-This was a good end to the first story arc.

-Yes! Finally they got Hal right. He felt like a character for once. I have a feeling the next arc will be even better considering this issue fixed the one thing that was wrong with these otherwise great first six issues.

-I really liked the whole "my willpower is stronger" bit at the end. That was neat.

-I have absolutely no idea what was going on at the end there, but I'm excited to see more.

THE BAD:

-This issue just didn't quite have the same magic that the previous issues had. Maybe it's because this issue was so much more normal than the others. Maybe it's the lack of goofy creatures. I don't know. more

i'm just gonna keep letting these pile up, then binge read.

That's a good idea. I think this series will read really well in one go. I personally am too impatient to wait, sadly.

This was so Grant Morrison.

A pretty solid end to this first arc with mysteries and wonder still to be explored. The next arc definitely catches my interest and I can't want to keep going.

So somehow I never reviewed this issue. Ever. It's not as though I forgot to post it or something... I just skipped reviewing this one
I read it though and I had a good time with it. I assume I just didn't have much to say about it at the time.

So far, this has been the best issue of this run. This story was good, but really should have been a multi-story arc.

Confused many times but somehow, enjoyed it!Hopefully next issue clears somethings up
