Green Lanterns #19



Green Lanterns, Issue #19 begins the "Polarity" arc.  It begins with a total quack preaching to an audience of one that magnetism cures cancer and all ills, reminiscent of David Wolfe claiming that gravity is at toxin and that cancer doesn't afflict animals that spend a lot of time hanging upside-down, such as bats (which suffer heavily from arthritis from hanging upside down) and opossums (which suffer heavily from arthritis from hanging upside down).  Enter Doctor Polaris, the quack magnetism guy who - you guessed it - has magnetic powers.

My comics have been piling up the past few weeks.  Right now, I'm at the point of only reading comics right before the next issue comes out.  That means that bimonthly comics like U.S.AvengersGreen Lanterns, and Detective Stories get priority.  Green Lanterns has been a comic I usually read first anyway, for reasons I've gone over in the last 19 reviews I've done on this series.  Doctor Polaris is a pretty formidable foe, and a novel one.  I haven't read the Justice League vs. Suicide Squad series yet (I'm waiting for it to come out on trade paperback), but the changes in the DC Universe are easy enough to catch up with.
