The Green Lantern Corps discovers that fellow Lanterns Sodam and Arisia have been captured by Mongul and subjected to the dreaded Black Mercy plant, which drags their deadliest fears into the light! And they're all about to learn a horrific secret behind the Black Mercy!
It was a great issue that had some very interesting developments for everyone. I enjoyed the fear dreams Ion and Arisia had, although I still dislike Ion being out of action so easily, and was impressed with Mongul's continued plans and just about everything was done right this issue with the sole exception being that boring recap section.

This is a strong issue of Green Lantern Corps and Peter Tomasi seems as though hes finally hit his stride Hes doing an excellent job with the Mongul storyline and with capturing each of the Green Lanterns featured in this book. While Green Lantern is probably the strongest title in DCs arsenal, Green Lantern Corps has been an excellent supplement and is certainly rising to the top quicker than ever. Read Full Review
Green Lantern Corps works best as a title when we get a sense of the vast scope of the DC Universe through the lens of GL Corps' everyday procedures, and even though this issue focuses heavily on the Guy Gardner/Kyle Rayner-led strike team on Mongul's planet, it cuts away to other GL Corps happenings just enough to drive home the vast scope that makes this series such a great sci-fi vehicle. This title is in competent, sure hands; I just hope Gleason figures out a better way to balance his out-of-this-world visuals with solid storytelling. Read Full Review
