Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles
Jul 26, 2017What I like most about the end of this arc was how Venditti neatly wrapped up everything that's played out in the first 24 issues. Standalone issues that previously seemed irrelevant took on a new meaning. Events from the initial arc come back in play and Venditti sets things up nicely for future storylines. Read Full Review

Jul 26, 2017Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #25 is like the perfect end to a season of your favorite television show, filled with decisive character driven moment and action sequences which get the blood pumping while setting the stage for the adventures to come when the series comes back for more.

Comics: The Gathering - Hussein Wasiti
Jul 26, 2017If you're thinking about picking anything up this week, this is it. The art is extremely strong and Robert Venditti fills this over-sized issue with so much story. I had a few problems with some story beats that weren't properly resolved not set up, but this is the best issue of the series so far. Read Full Review

Comic Book Revolution - Kevin Lainez
Jul 30, 2017Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #25 delivered an emotionally impactful anniversary issue. With the Green Lantern and Sinestro Corps alliance forever broken and Sinestro's return imminent there is plenty of intriguing plotlines that Robert Venditti has set for him and his team to explore. Adding Ethan Van Sciver's incredible artwork help fuel the impact of all the decisions made by the characters involved. That all comes together for an issue that sets up multiple intriguing plotlines for the series moving forward. Read Full Review

Green Lantern Corps - iggy
Jul 26, 2017While it was pretty obvious that it was Tomar-Tu who killer his Sinestro counterpart, him surrendering his ring was heart breaking. I honestly can't recall seeing a Green Lantern forced to give up his ring. Even if you aren't well versed into the history of Tomar-Re and his son Tomar-Tu, enough context for new readers to feel the same pain veteran readers might be feeling. You add all these elements with a huge cliffhanger reveal and you have one amazing issue of Hal Jordan & The Green Lantern Corps. Read Full Review

Jul 26, 2017I've really loved this run, it's been exciting andsurprising consistently. The events of this issue were pushed to the edge ofexaggeration it felt. There is something about how these events unfolded thatisn't sitting quite right with me, either way a fantastic read. The twist atthe end is going to get a lot of fans excited. Read Full Review

Jul 26, 2017A great conclusion to a story that really only had one conclusion. The writing was crisp and solid, with great moments given to all of the principal characters in the story. The art was amazing and showed the raw power of the corps. Read Full Review

DC Comics News - Matthew Lloyd
Jul 26, 2017Despite the Sinestro Corps breaking the alliance with the Green Lantern Corps, this is a solid issue. The unconventional resolution is welcome and there are some nice character moments. Things aren't done for good between the Corps though, as Sinestro himself will soon be back. Read Full Review

Comic Book Bin - Philip Schweier
Jul 26, 2017My onlyregret is the complete disconnect with the GreenLanterns title featuring Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz. The Corps as a wholewas featured in recent issues of that title, but the entire Sinestro CorpsAlliance was ignored, just as Simon and Jessicas presence on Mogo was ignoredin Hal Jordan.

Weird Science - Reggie Hemingway
Jul 26, 2017Here's a fairly predictable but not altogether unlikable issue of Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps. The story moves along, but I think the arc could have ended here instead of continuing, though not knowing what the continuation entails I could be quite wrong. It's good enough to stick around and keep getting read. Read Full Review

Razorfine - Alan Rapp
Aug 01, 2017News of both a Green Lantern murdering a member of the Sinestro Corps and Kyle Rayner's secret about the paternity of the evil time-traveler recently dispatched by both Corps leads to a fracture no one can put back together. Soranik leads her lanterns off Mogo to instill their own kind of order on the universe. And, because going backward seems to be the main theme of the comic, an old enemy rises from the ashes once more. Hit-and-Miss. Read Full Review

Didn't entirely buy Soranik's jump back to the dark side but the rest was really good. Great EVS art. Solid character play. Though I wonder what happens to the new friendship between Guy and the Ark.

8.0
It does seem a bit of a stretch for Soranik to overreact this much considering she never knew this son aside from the fact that he's bad guy. It's still a pretty sweet comic though, with great art. I love that Guy and Arkillo are ironically the most reluctant to fight each other, that was a nice touch.

Soranik is acting a bit out of character. She's supposed to be calm and rational but then finding out that her kid who mind you was obviously a product of bad parenting is now dead in a meat locker, she suddenly loses it and brands Kyle like some Texan ranchers brand their cattle. I think she forgot they still need to bump uglies for their kid to even exist or else doc brown's lime paradoxes will definitely occur...

7.5
Not a fan of this issue, nor of Venditti's interpretation of certain characters. More than following how the character would act, Venditti shapes the characters to fit the story, not the other way around.
