As the roller coaster heads up the hill again with The Green Lantern: Season Two #9, one can only hope that there is no crest ahead. We don't want to come back down to the bottom of the hill. If Morrison continues to work the characters then he should keep the reader on a plateau and perhaps take us a little bit higher by the end of Season Two. Read Full Review

This is the best Green Lantern book to come down the pike in quite some time. I will be sad when it all ends for sure. Read Full Review

As they get deeper into this run, Morrison is indulging many of the most bizarre quirks that made them such a distinct writer for decades. But Green Lantern lends itself to bizarre, and so far this continues to be one of the most ambitious and complex series DC is putting out in these last months of the current status quo.

The Green Lantern: Season Two #9 is a fun issue that plays with the multiverse concepts with some humorous results. The story reminds me of some of the over the top stories from the height of the Silver Age and I mean that as a positive thing. Nine out of ten lanterns. Read Full Review

The Green Lantern Season Two #9 is, once again, a great comic. You don't even have to have read the whole series to enjoy the fun, cover, but be prepared as it'll hook you into continuing the wild ride Sharp and Morrison are creating. This is great escapism and entertainment with a dash of the uncultivated chaos that comics can bring. Read Full Review

Hal Jordan travel back home only to find he's on the matriarchal Earth 11 and witness to a wedding proposal that will have your head spinning. But, with Liam Sharp on art duties, once again this title rises to the top of the pile. A true classic of the medium in the making and the penultimate issue of this epic run. Read Full Review

Every aspect of this issue has managed to hook me in some form or fashion, and if the rest of season two can deliver a similar experience, this could be one hell of a ride. Read Full Review

Another mostly weird issue is marginally easier to understand than the previous issue, so it's not a total wash. But weird storytelling choices have really run this comic off the rails. Read Full Review

MGTOW Green Lantern Corps, brilliant

MULTI-CRISIS ON INTIMATE EARTHS

Never did I think I would see a Green Lantern book that looked like a flagship Vertigo title. Sharp & Morrison are revolutionaries as far a I see it.

Incel Lantern made my week.

As the Wedding of Hyperboy and Princess Illistra enthralls the denizens of Kranaltine, the true Union of the Trillenium shocks the Multiverse as Will and Love remain in constant synchrony across endless worlds.

Wow. Absolutely fantastic issue, this is Heavy Metal for pop-culture folks.

Although Hal's proposal idea comes a little too abruptly for my tastes, Morrison again shows he's otherwise showing a complete understanding of Hal and celebrating every era of his existence with this series. The little bits of history and new ideas that pop out make for a read and read again kind of story. And love how he's bringing in other earths, deeper cuts on other GLs as we build to a crescendo on this beautiful series.

And as for Sharp's art and colours - my god, I can't say enough.

As much as I love Morrison, I find myself being more excited for the art. Last issue was fantastic, but this one was just spectacular. I'm getting early Vertigo vibes of surreal/expressive art. Just great.

I can't lie. I don't care much for the multiversal characters in Grant's run, and I feel like he is kind of squandering the potential this title had by focusing on them so much. I was also disappointed by the story here as a standalone issue. I would have given it lower even, had I no faith it will go somewhere.

I really liked some of this (InceHal) and was really confused by the rest. Why does this comic torment me like this. Let me love you, Green Lantern Season 2!!

I seriously only read this for the art otherwise it’s a such a mess of writing. I’m confused more often than not by this whole series, one issue good and then complete change.

I'm really starting to get annoyed with how this series is written. It's like every single issue is its own thing, and it makes as much sense as it can in its own context. But there is an overarching story that I just can't figure out. I see the hardcore fans of this series praising these issues as revolutionary, and they also allude to this vague overarching narrative that I feel like I'm only realizing in the most surface level sense. If someone wants to comment and explain what the fuck the narrative is, be my guest. This issue has its moments. I think incel Hal is fine. I think the art is cool at times. That's about it though. I find the story kinda boring.

Liked the art but hate everything else.

Ugh...This was horrible. DC wonders why sales are tanking. Crap like this passes for a storyline. The pandering in this book is just gross.
