Pick of the Week: Green Lantern #29
Friday, March 28th, 2008 running time 03:15
This week Josh goes with a re-telling of Hal Jordan's origin, giving the Pick of the Week to Green Lantern #29.
There are a lot of re-hashed stories out there, and Josh usually isn't a big fan, but this issue of Geoff Johns' Green Lantern is an exception. Hal needs some fleshing out, and this tale of his youth really does help, even if it's been told before. Strong art from Ivan Reis certainly helps as well.
