    Is It Too Late To Make a Captain Planet Joke?

    The Good: The way Kyle's multiple flow of energies looks, using all at once, is incredible. The blend of colors and the unique flow of the energies is beautiful in action.
    I'm now impressed by the mystery behind the Orange Ring. It was one of the few we didn't see prior to joining Kyle, and it makes a lot of sense. Plus it leads directly into a wild new direction for the plot.
     
    The Bad: Why is Fatality the only one absent from the cover?
    Why would a human be unable to wield all light? Seems to me a human would be MOST able to, they always say we have strong unchecked emotions.
    When the Guardians say that Kyle can't maintain the new form too long due to stress from the ring, then Kyle immediately starts feeling the effects, it seemed far too convenient. The pacing was really bad there.
    Now that Glomulus has appeared, he almost seems like a spoiler being on the previous covers.
    There's still 2 clashing artists.
     
    In Conclusion: 4/5
    I still don't have a whole ton of things to say about this series, but I'm still really enjoying it. The interplay among the various lanterns is unique and interesting, and the plot is an excellent mystery. If you're a Green Lantern fan, this series is not to be missed.

Why can he wield all the power of the emotional spectrum? Sure we know he was Ion at one point and was essentially God but with the recent reboot we have no clue if this is still applicable?!

      I found this to be another outstanding issue. The emotional spectrum powered Kyle Rayner turns on the Guardians in a rage over the other guardians stripping Ganthet of his emotions—which I am just as enraged over to be honest. As the cover suggests though Kyle is unable to control all the rings and is quickly depowered. The Guardians once again show just how powerful they are by taking down the other lantern corps members as well, including the orange ring which turned out only to be a construct...
