"Nah. Just came to see the Show" - John Constantine
This comics came out during a time where everyone was changing. Superman died and came back, Batman's back got broken, now Hal went nuts and got himself killed... Thank God there is a new sheriff in town.
Funeral comics are ultimately worthless continuity wise, since the two big American companies never let their characters stay dead. Even Hal Jordan.... He is back and bigger then ever. I am more of a Kyle fan and seeing Hal dead was the green light I needed over 16 years ago. I like Hal a lot now and rereading this comic is weird now.... I use to hate the guy because he was a killer. Now Geoff Johns showed me I got it all wrong and Hal is not to blame. Ron Marz is. DARN YOU RON MARZ! But I forgive you, since there is no Kyle without you.
If you are new to GL I won't break the bank on this comic. Its a nice keepsake and really nothing more.
3.5/5 Stars for the Story. 5/5 for both awesome covers.
Cheers!
