We get some clues through the issue, but the real highlight here is the stunning art by Montos. This guy sort of came out of nowhere with this book, but man can he draw the heck out of a cosmic battle. His characters are distinct, his abominations are terrifying, and it's great to see some big-scale sci-fi Lantern action taking over this title for a bit. Read Full Review
Montos delivers beautiful art throughout the issue. The visuals are darkly detailed and perfectly capture the tension of the story. Read Full Review

Green Lantern War Journal #8 is another chapter in the story of John Stewart as he battles his heroic responsibility with that of his family. The inclusion of Guy Gardner makes for great continuity and reminds us of the Lanterns' connectivity with each other even with the change of the status quo. Though the villain leaves more to be desired, John's dementia-ridden mother makes this a story worth telling and I can't wait to see how that plot thread gets resolved. Read Full Review
The ongoing Dark Star storyline is wearing a bit thin for me in this issue, but the Earth-bound story with John’s mother and a Guy Gardner “appearance” continues to be captivating, along with the great artwork.
