    The friendship between the two youngest Lanterns should be intriguing to follow. Add in Larfleeze on the rampage, and there are a lot of stars here but the biggest may be Carol Ferris, who has to stand on her own and save the ship in a dramatic segment that goes a long way toward explaining her rise as a member of the Justice League. Adams has also been doing some great work in building her and Hal's relationship, potentially elevating them to the status of one of DC's true power couples. Read Full Review

    DC Comics News - Matthew Lloyd Oct 16, 2024

    Despite the "Negatives section, Green Lantern #16 is a very good issue. It's the hangover from the Green Lantern Civil Corps Special that lingers that informs the "Negatives. Even that isn't so much about the story in the Special, but the other things it builds on. Green Lantern #16 has great art from Xermanico and Adams works his magic with character and interesting creative story ideas involving DC Universe connections. It's the interruptions and unhelpful connections that are the "Negatives for this series. Read Full Review
