ALPHA WAR part two!
Tomasi once again offers another piece of evidence that he's a master of pulling your heartstrings through superheroes, and Pasarin proves the ideal director for that ambition. Read Full Review
The battle may be quick, but it sure looks epicGreen Lantern Corps is a bit of a quick read, but the issue is filled with some great moments that more than makes up for it. As I read the book I was filled with a sense of impending doom, almost like the scene in "Star Wars: The Revenge of the Sith" when we witness the fall of the Jedi. This events of this issue will likely resonate throughout the Green Lantern universe for the next couple of months as the bigger story planned by the creative forces behind the Green Lantern universe continues to unfold. Four out of five lanterns. Read Full Review
Tomasi's script delves deep to provide excellent discussion on the merits of Jon's execution and the ramifications it will have on the Guardians, the Alphas, and the Corps as a whole. Under all of this is a vague hint that there is more going on than meets the eye, but here's hoping that Tomasi sticks to his guns and reaches a satisfying conclusion to what has been his strongest arc, which means not resorting to magically bringing Kirrt back to life or somehow erasing John's crime.

Thankfully, the book does pick up by the end, making excellent work of Fernando Pasarin's style. Pasarin has the composition of a Dave Gibbons, the expressiveness of a Kevin Maguire, and the clean figures of a Barry Kitson. Watching the Lanterns go to war against an ominous force has the widescreen appeal, but Pasarin also sells the quieter moments with aplomb. There are worse ways to score a win than by looks alone.

Green Lantern Corps #10 is easily the most enjoyable issue of the "Alpha War" so far. The first two entries into this arc were mired with legal jargon and judiciary proceedings - not things you want (or expect) from an action-based comic book. And while the best part of this month's issue is actually a debate over an issue of hypocrisy, the fights come out in spades. Read Full Review
Green Lantern Corps #10 is more about the derision of the Corps and the potential for further issues than anything else, which works quite well. On top of John's great moments we are given decent work with other Lanterns and a non-Lantern almost being selected. With a calm demeanor and muted tone Green Lantern Corps #10 shines with 3.5 out of 5 stars. Read Full Review

John Stewart receives a death sentence from the Alpha Lanterns. Guy and the corps bust him out of the science cell. The Alpha Lanterns face off against the Corps - next issue. That about sums it up. The story is ok, but it is the artwork that really shines here. story 7.5; artwork 9.5; = 8.5 overall.
For once I agree with the Guardians that the Alpha Lanterns should perform their own execution.
