Green Lantern #0

wolverine0628's Green Lantern #0 - The New Normal review

Why did I doubt?

There has been so much hype about this issue that I almost felt like it was set up to disappoint. I mean, doesn't Earth already have enough Green Lanterns? And won't it be harder to relate to an Arab-American? And why does he need a gun if he has a Green Lantern ring?

I was SO wrong. Baz is a very likable, very relatable, cool character. His origin story is compelling, and I loved it. I shouldn't be surprised, because really, has Geoff Johns written anything lately that hasn't been awesome? Anyway, I'm really excited about this title now. I've only read a few Zero Issues so far, but this has been the best by far.

Bottom line: 4.5/5

We have the return of Doug Mahnke on art which was nice.This story we see the introduction of Baz the character who has been getting a lot of hype as bening the new Green Lantern who is a bit more rough around the edges than most other Lanterns. From the cov...
