I'm looking to gain some more knowledge around the lanterns. Besides Brightest Day and Blackest Night, what lanterns stories should I be reading? Doesn't matter the color of the lantern either.

Sinestro by Cullen Bunn. GLC by Tomasi probably much more of the Geoff johns GL run than you've already read. GLC Recharge, Edge of Oblivion by Tom Taylor, Red Lanterns by Charles Soule, Larfleeze by Keith Giffen.

The Geoff Johns run and the one that introduces Kyle Rayner (I forgot if it was Emerald Dawn, or Emerald Twilight. I'd read them both though)

Emerald Twilight and Fear Itself are excellent.

@jedixman: isn't Fear Itself a Marvel crossover or am I missing something?
