Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps, Volume 4: Fracture by Robert Venditti

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This book collects Issues 22-29 and contains two separate stories:

The first half of the book shows the inevitable crumbling of the alliance between the Green Lanterns and the Sinestro Corps. It's a story that's full of emotional moments and puts several characters including Kyle Rayner, Soranik, and John Stewart through their paces. It's a story that has some great twists and some stunning emotional moments. I have troubling a couple of scenes including one character switching to a villain. Still, it's a well-told tale.

The second half is the Fall of the Gods, and it finds the survivors of New Genesis hunted and the Green Lanterns having to save them. This story is a great action piece and each of the major human lanterns plays a key role.

It should be noted that the art throughout this volume is just great. The stories come to life and it's skillfully used to add emotional impact. Another great read from one of DC's greatest series.
