Those who have been following Philip Kennedy Johnson and Jeremy Adams' recent work on the characters should have little problem catching up, but the issue may not be a new reader friendly introduction, but wouldn't require too much catching up to be up to speed.

Green Lantern: Civil Corps Special #1 is an odd, double-sized issue that integrates the main plot point from the main Green Lantern ongoing and the recently canceled War Journal series to clear the board of dangling plot threads and reset the status quo. The art is fine, and Green Lantern fans will have plenty of stories to chew on that aren't interrupted by Absolute Power or any other external events. That said, this issue relies heavily on War Journal, which may leave some readers confused and feeling left behind.6.5/10 Read Full Review
Very cinematic kickoff to a thrilling new chapter of an epic storyline! The best this franchise has been in over a decade!
As a catch up issue it kind of had its problems and at times some of the dialogue was a bit over written but all in I would say I mostly enjoyed it. The plus points were the wonderful art and colours that really did move the story along nicely........JM
I haven't been reading GL books in quite a while so I was a bit lost but it really says something about good writing when even new readers can enjoy something with this much backstory involved. Fun and action packed ring slinging is what this book is all about and that last page was epic! The cover is cool but misleading, purposefully so I guess. Fun issue.
