The RING THIEF – unmasked! The NEW GUARDIANS vs. LARFLEEZE! The final judgment of INVICTUS!
I have a lot of love for this book because it's incredibly fun and builds well upon a greatly developed universe. I love how Sayd is portrayed in this issue and the explanation for her losing it. Levitucus finally grew on me as a character and the conclusion of that part of the story was really satisfying. I loved the action sequences and writing here, and the art is top notch.

Green Lantern: New Guardians #12 brings the first saga to a close, and while the ending is a bit of a letdown it's a necessary component in how this book dovetails into the greater fabric of the Green Lantern universe. Definitely not the book to pick up if you're thinking of jumping on board, but a must read if you've been following this story to any degree. The stage is set for the rise of the Third Army and the major events that will shape these books for months to come. Read Full Review
With the first big storyline coming to a head, Tony Bedard delivers a fitting conclusion. The idea of the different colored Lanterns coming together to form a team is ludicrous at best, so he plays it smart and goes for an ironic ending that promises to shake up the series during its next year. While this series still has a ways to go to catch up to the quality of the main Green Lantern title, it is still the place to go for brightly colored action, big personalities, and more rings than you can shake a construct at.

Other than that it was a good conclusion to the story arc. Read Full Review
These days, Green Lantern books are all about the future, which makes sense with "Rise of the Third Army" coming in October and November, but it can be off-putting to continually buy issues that are only leading to something else. I'm all for proper build-up and development, but when actual plot is sacrificed to create a trumped-up prelude, things start getting annoying. Read Full Review
