Green Lantern, Volume 2: The Power of Ion
by Brandon Badeaux, Pat Quinn, Dale Eaglesham, Jamal Igle, Judd Winick, Eric Battle
This just solidifies my love for Kyle and he is by far my favorite Green Lantern (Though Jessica is next up!)
So what is the power of Ion? Well, the story here starts simple enough. Kyle and his girlfriend doing daily superhero stuff. Even dealing with life situations like Kyle's assistant coming out to his parents about being gay. But then the story goes into a bigger scope. What if you had the power of a god? To control and protect people, or possibly hurt them? Kyle gains the power of Ion and is able to do pretty much anything. Being at different places at different times. But maybe too much power is not a good thing? How will Kyle react.
I personally enjoy a lot of Winick's writing. It's fast paced and fun. Kyle is a loving guy who always wants to do the right thing. I think I can relate to him in a lot of ways. I also enjoy the romance stuff, the social commentary stuff, pretty much it all. I think there's a little too much dialogue at points and John's story isn't particularity interesting but it works decent enough.
It's not amazing but very strong character development for a character I enjoyed. A 4 out of 5.
