This is the last volume right for Blackest Night. Things are about to go down!

This is a big volume. Starting from just a regular hang out with a bunch of lanterns helping each other build and paint things to finding out Natu's true past, to learning the Guardians new ways of dealing with their foes, to the build up of the blackest night, and even some goodbyes to characters that we got to know and love in this series.

Good: It's fast paced and a lot of twist and turns to our favorite heroes. The return of some villains, even though some are dealing with even worse villains. The Glooming Blackest Night moments are creeping up. The fights are big and epic and the deaths actually feel like they matter. Kyle and Guy's growth is great.

Bad: The exposition dumps here and there can be annoying. Especially since they cover stuff I read in the regular green lantern side of things. I also think, while finding out who Natu was, the background was kind of shoved in.

Overall, pretty great. Sure, some issues here and there, but the fun is to be had. Obviously Tomasi loves these characters, and for that, he's writing them really good. Helps the art is kickass too. A 3.5 out of 5, pushing it to a 4.
