Summary: New author, new chapter in the Kyle Rayner GL era...
Review: Although Judd's pacing in the first few issues of his run were a bit off, he does eventually learn to smooth out the books pacing. He introduces growth in Kyle like we never saw in the past seven years under Marz. Finally, Kyle learns to use the power ring in more "imaginative" ways than just plain constructs. I'd definitely want to pick up the start of what I think will be a better GL run.

Summary: This book is HOT! Get it now!
Review: first off,...kyle rayner as green lantern ROCKS. ...i mean, hal jordan and all the other green lanterns were always cheap and just used the ring as a laser or a force field/shield. kyle has got all the creativity and fun and makes the coolest constructs from the ring. this book is packed with action (better than a movie). although its all one main story, there are three separate adventures. the first is about kyle getting abducted by the manhunters of qward. the second is about kyle dealing with fatality again (but this time she has a yellow lantern ring). and the third is about a schizofrenic artist called nero who inherits the yellow lantern ring and causes serious trouble. its a great buy and one of the best comics i've read.

Summary: DC is Daytime soap Opera Comics
Review: First Volume of GL stories by this cheap writer finds cheap story telling with cheap artwork, all coming from AOL books. The Jade/Kyle romance is a joke and what happens to one of the main characters in this book looks like something they would have on the Jerry Springer show.

Summary: Kyle Rayner as Green Lantern RULES
Review: Kyle Rayner is by far the best Green Lantern ever. He was just a regular guy that became one of the greatest super heroes ever. He is by far the most powerful because of his limitless imagionation.

Summary: A transitional chapter for a controversial character
Review: This collect's Judd Winnick's first couple of story-arcs as the first post-Marz writer on "Green Lantern". As a previous reviewer noted, Winnick immediately sets about remedying the lack of character growth and development for which the Marz run was widely criticized. Kyle is much more substantial and well-rounded in Winnick's hands, a most welcome improvement. On the negative side, this is Winnick's first superhero work, and it shows; the pace, structure, and overall execution are awkward, giving the narrative an uneven feel. That having been said, I'll mention that Winnick's work on the title since has dramatically improved; he seemed to really hit his stride a few issues after those collected here. Look for Winnick's next Green Lantern collection to be a five-star winner. As for the present one, I'll still recommend it as a good transitional intro to a highly promising new era for Green Lantern.

Summary: An Inferior Greeen Lantern
Review: This latest version in a seemingly endless troup further cheapens the memory of a classic superhero. Chosen not because he was born fearless, wished to dedicate his life to avenge a wrong or fight the good fight Kyle Rayner just happened to be there when the last of the disgraced Guardians came along. Do yourself a favor and buy one of the GL Archives staring Alan Scott or Hal Jordan instead. Even Guy Gardner would be better then this loser, at least Guy was entertaining.

Summary: Next writer, please.
Review: While I at first eagerly awaited Winick's arrival on a book I had been reading for some time, I found his Green Lantern simply bad. In our first issue, we are introduced to a variety of new supporting characters we don't care about. I didn't mind the new faces as much as I thought it was kind of forced on me. I also thought the character Nero was a hollow antagonist, and while a good effort to give Kyle an arch-nemesis, it just didn't work.On the other hand, the art is well done, and does much to solidify an otherwise weak story. Winick may have done great work in the world of personal drama, but it doesn't transfer into super-hero success. Next writer, please.
