    Green Lantern: Lost Army is one of the best books of DC's cosmic line up. It has a good mystery, compelling drama, and a great character showcase. Cullen Bunn boasts his typical jack of all trades with what is at its core a military story. Jesus Saiz remains one of the best Green Lantern artists in a long time and deserves an ongoing in this type of setting. Lost Army is exciting and comes well recommended. Read Full Review

    While I get the point of the flashbacks that are being used to John's days as a soldier they're also becoming a problem in the flow of the book. I generally prefer a show me not tell me aspect to most series but with the way these hit it ends up being a distraction and playing out longer than it should, even at just a page or two.

    For a book supposedly outside of the main Lantern universe, The Lost Army sure has a lot of connection to it. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but after a bright start the series is veering dangerously close to rehash territory. Read Full Review

    "Green Lantern: The Lost Army" #3 is a solid story packed with details and mounting suspense. Six Lanterns and two of their most noteworthy foes packed into tight quarters with potential disaster creeping in is a fine recipe for an interesting story. Bunn, Saiz, Richards, Atiyeh and Sharpe appear to be making the most of the combination and give readers a dramatic adventure sure to appeal to most every Lantern fan. Read Full Review

    "Green Lantern: Lost Army" #3 is another solid issue with the build-up enough to keep us intrigued to continue with this new series. Read Full Review

    Green Lantern: The Lost Army#3 sees some minor developments as John Stewart gambles by having his team join with Relic in order to learn more about their location. Unfortunately, these developments aren't quite enough to keep the series from losing steam. The art by Jesus Saiz, Cliff Richards, and Michael Atiyeh is good, but there's a lack of visual excitement here which only exacerbates the issues with the script. There's a lot of setup in Green Lantern: The Lost Army #3, and hopefully that pays off in later issues. Read Full Review

    Green Lantern Lost Army while it has some interesting plot lines, nothing has really grabbed me through three issues. It's not a terrible book mind you, but the plot or future of the Lanterns have me needing the next issue. Hopefully that changes before the year is over. Read Full Review

    Overall Green Lantern: The Lost Army #3 is an average book that does little to propel the overall story but does succeed in terms of creating some friction between Guy Gardner and John Stewart. The art is pretty but neither Jesus Saiz or Cliff Richards are given much to do and in the end the issue feels like we've "been there, done that" already. Read Full Review

    I really don't see how anyone can be enjoying this book as of now because we're three issues in and nothing has really been explained.  All that's happened is new characters are introduced, the occasional fight and flashbacks to John Stewart when he was in the marines that doesn't really do anything for the story.  I do love the inclusion of Relic in this title, but all we get is information we already know and in a book that's keeping the story so hush hush, old information just seems like a tease.
