james_desantis 's review for:
Green Lantern Omnibus, Volume 3
by Geoff Johns
So this is the end.
I started first collection years ago and finally got to the end of Johns run. First let me say the guy truly did make Green Lantern a much bigger more expansive world after this. A lot of writers will have a hard time matching up to it all.
But this volume focuses on the end of the pre-new52 era and the start of the new 52 era. So basically brightest day and also Senistro becoming a green lantern again while finishing up with the wrath of the first lanthern. I reviewed each volume individually so if want all my view points for each arc can read them there.
I think Johns does a solid job finishing his run. A highlight being his final issue with a time skip to give closure to a lot of characters. Of course things will change but it worked well here. I also really dug the evolution of Senistro here and what he had become. Hal moved from my least favorite Lantern to 5th place, so not bad. (Sorry Kyle, Jessica, Simon, and Guy are all better human Lanterns) but the storylines themselves are pretty solid in this last collection.
While not as magical and bombastic as Senistro war in the first omnibus or as dark and gory as Blackest night in the second omnibus collection, we do end on a accumulation of all things green lantern with the first lantern. Probably the biggest threat John has ever made.
I think each Omnibus is very much worth reading. Johns did a outstanding job. A 4.5 out of 5.
