Adams played it slow to start, but he's being rewarded with an excellent ramp-up to the next arc. Read Full Review

Green Lantern #9 keeps building momentum with the reveals as Jeremy Adams and Xermanico team up to deepen Green Lantern's mythology. Lots of changes are happening here. This is the start of a new era for GL, and it is not too late to jump on, charge up, and experience comics in a bold light! Pick this issue up, as this is a milestone moment in Hal Jordan's life.

Green Lantern #9 checks a lot of boxes for me as a veteran Green Lantern reader, and I feel like the series so far has been like the beginning of a roller coaster ride where we are just about to hit the top of the lift hill before the ride really begins. Jeremy Adams has been laying the groundwork for a great adventure and I feel like, as good as this series has been, we are just getting started.Nine out of ten lanterns. Read Full Review

Xermanico delivers some fantastic art throughout the issue. The character designs are beautifully detailed and the art offers some great moments of action and thrills. Read Full Review

Adams Hal stresses on his humanity, giving us a man behind the mask, and lets us in to see behind his eyes. These two have really given us the most grounded Green Lantern Ive read in quite sometime, and Im loving them for it. Read Full Review

Green Lantern #9 is the issue that pays off what's been lacking in this series - meaningful answers. With a new status quo for all GLs and badly needed canon fixes, Adams is on the right track to get the Green Lanterns back to their place of prominence in the galaxy. Read Full Review

Green Lantern #9 answers a ton of nagging questions in a short amount of time making this installment incredibly informative. Moreover, the premise by Adams was quite clever in how he intertwined some minor history to hammer out the why and provide a solid foundation for Sector 2814. Overall, Green Lantern #9 extended the answers that we needed in this run. However, it did so a bit too quickly and left this reviewer scratching his head in a variety of early parts. Moreover, I think the backup is taking some serious page count away from the meat of this series. I get the process BUT I think we need to move past it and let Adams just do his thing.

Green Lantern #9 brings a number of plot ideas together. It feels like the lynchpin to this series and everything will pivot off this issue going forward. The deep cuts are really exciting, as are the potentialities suggested in this issue with the Green Lantern Corps, Jessica Cruz and the United Planets. Read Full Review

Classic Green Lantern storytelling. Stunning visuals, I really loved the scene where Hal charges his new ring. Jessica Cruz side story was also a fun read

Adams does a good job of finding a good reason to have Tom Kalmaku show up, and makes a far more compelling justification for the ridiculous number of Earth Lanterns (although there are just too many imo). With Hal's ring restored the haze of self doubt has been lifted, and Hal has the clarity of emotion to make a crucial decision about Carol - and of course this just means that Adams will have Carol decide she wants to be with Hal since they can never both be in the same place emotionally.
This is all building towards a Green Lantern Civil War of sorts - and I can't wait to see how it all unfolds.

A step right back up in terms of quality, in my opinion. I found the new area that the power battery was in to be very interesting and I hope it's something Adams ends up revisiting. I also enjoyed the backup story for what it was, but I didn't find it was enjoyable as the Kyle Rayner story from the last issue. Either way, I'm really enjoying this series and I feel like something big is coming.

This week marked a turning point in Hal’s story as Jeremy Adams (@spacekicker) began solidifying the foundation he’s been setting up since the series debuted, setting up a ton excitement for the next arc.

Hal’s journey to discovering a previously unknown power source has been hidden on Earth was a well-executed plot device that also gave someone from Hal’s past a nice cameo. Hal is now in possession of three things he’s been sorely lacking: 1) confidence in himself; 2) the courage to leave those he loves on Earth behind; & perhaps most importantly, 3) a fully functioning ring. To say I’m excited for what comes next is an understatement & seeing Jo appear at the end has me anxious for the next issue. This continues to be one of my favorite DC books right now.

It was AWESOME to have both Xermánico (@xermanico) & Romulo Fajardo Jr. (@evergreenfajardo) together again, & their combined art was nothing short of phenomenal. From the breathtaking landscapes surrounding the newly discovered power source to the awe-inspiring vistas of space travel, my jaw was firmly on the ground. Look at the shot of Earth from space!

The backup story by Sam Humphries (@samhumphries) featuring Jessica Cruz tied in nicely w/ the larger GL vs UP plot & I can’t wait to see how her infiltration plan unfolds in the grand scheme of things. more

solid art, action, and plot from the Green Lantern team.

I liked a lot about this issue and it seems to be getting better. Aside from the mystery of the United Planets ringslingers being able to change colors at will, my biggest complaint with this portion of the story was the guy that Hal finds in the hole. Has the guy just been waiting down there for months or years for a GL to show up? If so, that's extremely far-fetched beyond a guy with a green ring. Then, when he finishes with Hal, he just walks off. Hal doesn't have to fly him out or anything which means he could have left at any time. I'm not a big fan of the Sector GL, Jo. I would have rather had Jessica in there instead of using her for the backup story.

I'm not sure of how I'm feeling about these color changing Lanterns, back then only Kyle could do this easily, now everybody's doing it like it doesn't mean a thing. Let's see how it goes from here.

Also, Adams really is going back with MILLENNIUM. Trash saga, but he brought it back in a smart way.

Adams tried to explain why there are so many redundant earth lanterns. But this issue still failed to convince me of their validity. IMO they don't need to be legitimized. They need to be pruned.
And the Jessica Cruz backup story is so stupid. Thaaros just swallowed her clumsy lies and tricks like an idiot? That’s the big bad the corps are dealing with? Is this story written for infants?

Plus, too many earth lanterns are so boring. It would be much better if the one who rescued Hal is Arisia, Trilla-Tru, or Iolande, instead of Jo who nobody cares about.
