    AIPT - Christopher Franey Feb 12, 2025

    Seeing John Stewart as an enlightened hero is terrific and the perfect centerpiece of this new Green Lantern Corps series. The Green Lantern Mythos is taking off again, and keeping that momentum going forward is the best idea for another book. Having the main series creative team join up with Morgan Hampton is excellent as it is a Creative Corps working on this book. You can tell they have incredible chemistry together as their characters shine. It is the perfect time to join the Corps and get this series on your pull list, no matter how long you've been a Lantern fan or who your main Lantern is. Read Full Review

    Super Hero Hype - Matt Morrison Feb 10, 2025

    All in all, Green Lantern Corps #1 is everything one could hope for in a first issue. It sets the stage for a grand conflict, but offers continuity without drowning the reader in exposition. The artwork is simply amazing and the story full of surprises for old and new readers alike. Read Full Review

    This first issue is maybe a little dense and wordy at points, but it does a great job of balancing a huge cast and a lot of plot. Read Full Review

    Fun start to the series, focusing on a Green Lantern Corps that taps into my own personal interest in this franchise, so that was nice. Good introduction of all characters, and put everyone and the Corps to good use. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Theron Couch Feb 12, 2025

    Aside from Sinestros appearance, Green Lantern Corps #1 isnt a spectacle. Its not a splashy first issue. But its fun and entertaining. And most important, Green Lantern Corps #1 absolutely drives interest for the new series. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Gabe Hernandez Feb 13, 2025

    Green Lantern Corps #1is a decent beginning to a new series that follows the renewed Green Lantern Corps as they undertake monthly missions to protect the galaxy. Morgan Hampton and Jeremy Adams's script is a solid complement to the ongoing Green Lantern title, and Fernando Pasarin and Oclair Albert's impressively detailed artwork is excellent. That said, the big threat of the Sorrow Lantern, established in the previous one-shot, takes an odd back seat.7/10 Read Full Review

    Very strong kickoff for the new title with a great story and amazing artwork that tees up exciting things to come while setting a nice foundation for a variety of stories and characters. I’m delighted to have this book back where it belongs, front and center in the All-In DCU!

    This debut issue is great. It catches up readers on the Lanterns and their current status. We get John Stewart, Jessica Cruz and surprisingly, Sinestro featured! There are appearances from Jo Mullein, Teen Lantern and Simon Baz. Jeremy Adams incorporates a lot of history as well as getting things going with the Sorrow Lantern. Brining Sinestro back into the Corps is an interesting idea and it’s done wonderfully in this issue. There are lots of little bits that make this a great issue. Only one thing stands out as a possible concern…is that Shayera (Hawkwoman) Hol on the last page? She’s on Oa as a royal ambassador to work with John Stewart to help salvage what’s left of their homeworld. It doesn’t look like Shayera’s h more

    I didn't hate this issue as much as some people did. I thought some of the jokes didn't land like the MIB reference and I do agree that there are too many human characters in the book. I did like some of the interactions. I liked the reveal as I'm a fan of the relationship between Hawkgirl and Stewart, however, I don't like the designs on either. Everyone said that Jeremy didn't really write this issue. I'm not sure how true that is.

    Very disappointing that Jeremy Adams chose to pander to the DCAU fans who don't buy comics and ruin Shayera's character development. John/Shayera is just a shit pairng that has done dirty to the Hawks franshise. Also it is really a bummer that while every fan wants to see is Hal/Sinestro dynamics, Jeremy Adams stole Hal's frenemy relationship with Sinestro and gave that to John. Come on, hasn't John taken enough things away from Hal?
