    Blog Of Oa - Myron Rumsey Feb 16, 2024

    Green Lantern #8 might have seemed like a bit of a filler issue, but nothing could be further from the truth. Jeremy Adams provides some more clues to the larger story being created without giving away too much and the action and narrative work is supported by some great character moments. Kyle Rayner fans will be really happy to see Ron Marz's name in the credits as he provides a typically grounded story for his creation. Nine out of ten lanterns. Read Full Review

    AIPT - Christopher Franey Feb 13, 2024

    This issue seems to be a breather between story arcs, but Jeremy Adams doesn't let Hal Jordan stay idle as he throws some curve balls that will be a strong setup for later. Things are bad for Odym. Carol has to make some decisions and potential answers about the ring from magic and what it is connected to, plus the United Planets are on the hunt. It is an exhilarating time for Green Lantern fans as some signs point toward big things within the Emotional Spectrum! Also, the 30th anniversary of Kyle Rayner brings back Ron Marz, but what other hints could that present? Read Full Review

    It's a fascinating issue that broadens the story in a big way and sets Hal off on a new adventure that will likely lead him right back to Oa for an epic showdown. Read Full Review

    Major Spoilers - Jonathan Cadotte Feb 17, 2024

    Green Lantern #8 brings some progress to a series that has been sorely missing a sense of movement, even with the big moments that have happened in the last couple of issues. Its backup story is also a nice addition that doesn't come off as filler. Read Full Review

    The Comicbook Dispatch - Dispatchdcu Feb 13, 2024

    This issue is a prime example of the normal setup and plot of each issue. We get a minor fight scene, outstanding art, and a small new plot thread that sets fans up for the same premise in the next issue. However, we just keep getting appetizer after appetizer. Wheres the main course? I hope we get answers soon as to what the United Planets are actually up to as well as how Hal is capable of harnessing raw willpower to make his own ring. But until then, readers will certainly enjoy the usual stellar art and guidance from Adams that normally drives this series. Nevertheless, Im getting nervous that if we dont get some answers, direction, and more explosive discoveries soon, people may jettison the series altogether. Read Full Review
