'Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #2' by Robert Venditti with art by Rafa Sandoval feels like a huge story, and I really liked it.

Something has happened to the Green Lantern Corps and their numbers are rapidly dwindling. Sinestro is trying to gain control. Guy Gardner gets sent out on a mission to face potential pain and suffering, but he's crazy enough to do it (I've always kind of liked Guy Gardner). Hal Jordan is still alive and word of this gets to Sinestro and his daughter Soranik.

I love the feel of this book. An overrun Green Lantern Corps putting up what looks like a final stand against incredible odds. A big story that almost feels like the page can't hold it. I loved the story and the art. Hal Jordan especially looks completely up to the task of fighting this alone if he has to.

I received a review copy of this issue from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this comic book.

So due to various reasons I wasn't able to read this till today , but It was totally worth it.

It almost feels like nearly all the August 10th release of DC were above expectations and nearly every comics delivered , Hal Jordan and The GL corps was no different .

The rebirth one-shot was really annoying and the 1st edition was also a bit absurd , partly because of my lack of abundant backstory knowledge and partly due to awkward and confusing details in those issues , but this one was different and Guy Gardner is sent on a recon mission and Hal Jordan starts kicking some Yellow Lantern ass as soon as you open the comics . Sinestro explains his plans to his daughter and nearly becomes complacent when he gets to realise that the most baddest-of-badass Green lantern a.k.a Hal Jordan is still alive and kicking , literally

Rafa Sandoval's sketches are still in need for some fine tuning but it has improved tons and the art just looks stunning in most pages meanwhile Robert Venditti's story is finally making some headway making this an action-packed must-read
