Green Lantern #24

Green Lantern #24
I tell you what, if Infinite Crisis had been half as cool (damn cool) as this book and story, it wouldn't have sucked as much as it did. Why couldn't Johns have made this story the finale to Infinite Crisis instead of that awfully rushed ending? There were so many things in that story that made no sense. Yet, it this story, where one would logically expect the same thing to happen, Geoff Johns has taken several long percolating stories, from the original Crisis, to the Death of Superman, to Parallax, Rebirth, the recruitment of Kyle, Ion, and obscure Alan Moore stories, and has built them up into a cohesive whole. And by god, if that cohesive whole doesn't seem to promise to be cool. Damn cool.
EXCELLENT.
