    While a Green Lantern without a ring still is an odd development, John Stewart's run has been exactly the kind of fresh idea this new era of DC needs. This creative team is locked in and hopefully this is a title with a very bright future ahead. Read Full Review

    PKJ's a massive fan of John Stewart, and this book is a poignant exploration of the person beyond those green constructs. And while #1 was a truly solid start, I think PKJ and company hit the veritable second gear with issue #2. Read Full Review

    Graphic Policy - Brett Oct 18, 2023

    Green Lantern: War Journal #2 is a solid second issue. We got through the emotional hit of the first issue and this second does an excellent job of building off of what Johnson is focusing on. There's some interesting underlying themes and concepts here that'll hopefully get readers to think but the issue emphasizes experiences many comic readers are going through and can relate. It reminds us that these godlike heroes are just people in the end and despite their grand adventures, they do have to deal with life, much like us. Read Full Review

    Blog Of Oa - Myron Rumsey Oct 26, 2023

    Green Lantern: War Journal #2 does a nice job of balancing the character and world building aspects of the series with the overall plot. In fact, Phillip Kennedy Johnson is moving the series along faster than I expected, which isn't a bad thing. Just as the future is looking bright for John Stewart, Johnson and Montos throw us a curveball, albeit a bit of a predictable one. Regardless, this series is another must-read Green Lantern book from DC. Eight out of ten lanterns. Read Full Review
