Green Lantern Corps #47

The Epilogue to Blackest Night finds all members of the Corps rebuilding after the devastation that reigned on Oa.
 

What You Need To Know

Peter Tomasi and Patrick Gleeson's run as creative team on Green Lantern Corps ends with this issue. Kyle died, but came back due to the love he shared with Natu.  Kilowog lost numerous recruits during the attack on Oa.  Guy was a Red Lantern.  Mogo engulfed the Black Lanterns attacking Oa.  
 

The Good

 Peter Tomasi ends his run on top of his game.  He concludes some issues and opens new ones for the next creative team. 
Patrick Gleeson delivers some very strong panels.
Kyle and Guy's character interaction, both with themselves and with the other members of the Corps
Kilowog has a nice scene that is short but effective.
Mogo.
Arisia doesn't let anyone forget about Sadam Yat.
 

The Bad

 Besides the fact that the amazing creative team is leaving? 
Patrick Gleeson doesn't have his strongest issue, felt a little rushed on some panels, but others were really good.
 

The Whole Isamot + Vath scene

 I didn't think that scene needed to be in there.  I won't say what happens, but it felt a little awkward.  Although I'm sure it will lead to an interesting development.  I just really didn't care this time,
 

The Verdict.

 For the most part it was a well-paced story that added new developments, while closing some others.  This series is one that spotlights the Corps and not just Kyle and Guy, which is what it did for a while during Blackest Night, so it's nice to see where everyone is at.  It's fairly new reader friendly, as it closes out the Blackest Night, while setting up future events.  If you only followed Blackest Night then you should be fine, if you've followed GLC then you're more than fine.
