Green Lanterns #23


Green Lanterns (2016-) #23

Green Lanterns, Issue #23 begins with Jessica Cruz stripped of her Lantern emblem and undergoing basic training with Guy Gardner, while Simon Baz is undergoing advanced training with Kyle Rayner and Volthoom in the body of Rami is tasked with the rebuilding of the Green Lantern Corps rings.  Then it goes into a story from 10 billion years ago that I didn't quite follow, something about the Old Gods.

I don't see where this title is going right now.  "Training" arcs can work pretty well, in genres as diverse as Rocky and Hunter X Hunter or Naruto.  I just haven't gotten into the Volthoom arc yet, but it seems likely that the creators know where they're going with it.  I do like the Rayner/Baz and Gardner/Cruz scenes so far.  We'll just have to see where the title goes from here.
