3.0
Unfortunately almost a 4 star. The first arc is strong, giving us a better sense of what Jessica lost and contextualizes her lack of confidence. I strongly recommend it if you like the character. The second arc had a lot of potential, but wastes it. It’s not bad, but it’s not good either.

Wow . This sucked . Like Sucked real bad . Ever since Sam Humpries left this book series , it's gotten awful . Don't know if I want to continue to the next volume even .
"Well what's wrong with this one?" You ask (or I imagine you might ask) , well this volume had 2 stories . The first one was kinda cool , where Singularity Jane makes Jessica re-live the moment that changed her life course forever , and in doing so Jane gets to feed on a huge amount of power (don't ask how , I am still confused) and ergo to get out of this mess , Jess has to deal with her past and overcome her anxiety issues . My problem with this story was that we have already had Jess overcome that incident , we have seen her really progress as a character all by herself , this just felt needless.
Besides that, the book felt really confusing , as idk what Constantine did to make it all right in the end , or what was going on inside the Ring of Jessica and if they had left the ring outside why was it useful inside the black hold .
The 2nd story was even worse , Jessica is accused of a crime she didn't commit but she can't remember how she is at the crime scene . This story has been done to death , and not just for GL but for every character in the comic world . Worse yet , why and how did Every other Lantern decide she was a criminal and not allow her to explain herself .
The art was a bit better but the tales repetitive and confusing , filled with plot holes . It's a NO! For me
