The New 52 Green Lantern Volume 5 Test of Wills trade paperback ends with Hal and the Lanterns victorious on Mogo, drinking space beers, and on the final page Highfather from New Genesis arrives via boom-tube with the intention of finding the Life Equation. Things look ominous and I'm looking forward to finding out how it all goes down.
Volume 6 begins with a prologue that explains that Highfather has now stolen one ring from each corps, the New Gods Orion and Metron have attacked the Green Lantern corps and stolen Mogo's ring and the last blue ring of hope from Saint Walker. Mogo is left dying. Highfather has now taken the seven rings and is using them on the planet Aydin in some kind of attempt to prepare an army to fight Darkseid, which we are told, has failed.
And Volume 6 starts at that point.
There is no information about where all these events were published. Can someone please explain to me where all this action took place and why it wasn't covered in the Green Lantern book? I hate going from one volume to the next only to discover that a whole heap of stuff has gone down off panel (in some other book presumably), and that I'm coming in halfway through events.
I feel like it's Monday and everyone's talking about a party that happened on the weekend that I wasn't invited to. Sure, I can kind of pick up the threads and figure out what happened, but I really wanted to be there.
