"HOUSE PARTY"! Their trip through space and time complete, Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz find themselves back home on Earth, but new family strife makes the duo wonder if the threats of the cosmos were less taxing than dealing with your siblings.

A quiet issue compared to what's gone before, but one that's worth reading to see that the heroes are trying to lead normal lives when not fighting aliens. The visuals are good, especially since they're set in a house during a party. Everything about this works, continuing its streak of excellence. Read Full Review
This was a great issue to read for anyone interested in superheroes. No capes or rings, only the people behind them. It was a great character building issue, and a ton of fun to read. Read Full Review
I really dug this issue. I imagine a subset of readers wont, but I do highly recommend this comic if you are a fan of Simon and Jessica. Their charisma and charm carry this issue, and you should give it a read. Read Full Review
Green Lanterns has a been a wild ride and while I didn't enjoy every single aspect of Sam Humphries' run I did enjoy enough of it to recommend to anybody whether they've never read a Green Lantern comic or if they've been reading it since the 1950's. Read Full Review
A nice farewell issue though it leans heavily on the street clothes drama. Read Full Review
A decent no stakes story that takes the time to conclude a personal arc for one of the characters in a pretty realistic way. Read Full Review
Humphries really had a blank slate with Baz and Cruz and made them a fun pairing. I wish other writers utilized them as well in other books. Hopefully, incoming writer Tim Seeley maintains and continues to build on the terrific bond Humphries established. Read Full Review
This issue of Green Lanterns acts as just a silly palate cleanser to everything we've dealt with lately, but even as that it doesn't really come off all that fun and just feels like a filler issue in the long run that doesn't really accomplish anything at all.......... besides for saying pancakes over and over again.

All in all an enjoyable story, but nothing really relevant to any ongoing plots.Enjoyable, but there was nothing particularly great about the issue.The art is great for the story, and really the Green Colors shine in this issue.The highest point is definitely the cover art by Tomey Morey.

In a weirdly bad issue, Humphries ends his run. As far as I'm concerned, Tim Seeley should do a better job with these characters and their stories. Read Full Review
Green Lanterns #32 showcases both writer's Sam Humphries greatest asset and his greatest weakness as a writer. Strong but inconsistent character work coupled with a shaky narrative defines his run on the series which reaches its conclusion with this issue. Five out of ten lanterns. Read Full Review
It holds no substance to anything happening in the Green Lantern universe, or the DC universe for that matter. I totally love Sam Humphries' work, and I am by no means taking a stab at him right now, this issue just felt very out of place next to the work we've seen thus far from him. I look forward to his upcoming work on Nightwing. Read Full Review
Sam Humphries' "swan song" issue. Personally, I think he should have ended after the last issue. This issue felt like a filler with lots of characterization and not much action. Although I'm sure that's what he was going for, it feels like he's going out with a wimpier instead of a bang! The art didn't help either, as I didn't feel it was as good as past issues.
A decent character building issue.
Apparently they like pancakes... This title betrays the fact that Rebirth while initially brilliant is getting a little stale. New creative teams can't hurt at this point. Ditto for the Flash, Williamson has done a tremendous job but the title itself needs some fresh elements. If it wasn't for Metal, I'd say the second act of Rebirth is not nearly as impressive as its debut. I would not be against reverting all titles back to once monthly schedules. I actually think Aquaman got better when it became a once-monthy title with the same writer. Green Arrow is another one going to the once monthly format, Green Lanterns should follow suit.
That was almost unreadable. Glad Humphries is gone from this book.
