The Radiant Dead is stalking John and his new Lantern ally, Shep, as Johnson is not revealing many flaws in their power just yet. War Journal has been a pleasant surprise so far and this creative team seems fully dialed in with making this book one to keep an eye on in 2024. Read Full Review

Montos art is as visually compelling as the story. The characters and world they inhabit looks amazing and allows for some dark imagery throughout. Read Full Review

Green Lantern: War Journal #5 continues the first arc with some lumpy pacing that, for the most part, doesn't take away from the building climax this issue has setup.

A good solid issue, but it feels like too little happen. I mean at the end a bunch of stuff happen and we get to the start of the epic final fight, but I dont know where the pages went. I do appreciate the stuff with his mom at the start and how he pushed himself to go further and really test the limit of what he can 'build' but I think it could have been done in fewer pages.

Great art, the last 4 pages are where it really pops. Well that and when he makes his sister. That page was adorable.

It sets up the final issue, but I think this could have done a bit more to get a higher rating.
