    A dramatic cliffhanger puts some punch into this Lantern tale. Some characters are no longer on the “Edge of Oblivion” — they're in it! Read Full Review

    Green Lantern: Edge of Oblivion has quickly established itself as the must-read title in the Green Lantern franchise. Between Taylor's top-notch characterization, Van Sciver's epic artwork and the general sense that anything can and will happen to our heroes, there's a lot to love with this mini-series.

    Green Lantern Corps: Edge of Oblivion #2 raises the stakes for the Corps as more obstacles prevent them from focusing on getting back home.  Tom Taylor introduces to the story's main antagonist and possibly kills off two more ring bearers while creating tension between two of the Corps mainstays.  The team of Taylor and Ethan Van Sciver are making this six issue event something not to be missed.  Four out of five lanterns.

    A solid issue from both Taylor and Van Sciver, hopefully issue three will kick the series into gear just in time for the second half of the series. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Eric Shea Feb 11, 2016

    While the artwork and colors in this book are beyond top notch, I have to say that the story is conveniently stalled so that we can have ourselves a token action sequence, complete with a shocker ending.  That's par for the course though, but this situation does little for me than make me question how bright our heroes really shine....... mentally.  This series is still moving a lot faster than Lost Army ever did though and for that I'm grateful, but some of the best aspects of that story even though this is a direct continuation are left behind and I'm just left scratching my head at the deliberate omission.  This is still an enjoyable issue, full of Lanterns doing Lantern things, it's just a little sparse on the forward momentum.

    Classic comics are back with heroes punching and rushing to save the day with as little thought as possible! This proves to be troublesome for a complex story and the lack of understanding the villains or stakes hurts it in the end. Read Full Review
