And Then I Read: HAL JORDAN & THE GL CORPS #26

A new storyline featuring Jack Kirby’s New Gods, or at least one of them: Orion. He’s under attack by an unknown force, and Hal and Kyle Rayner offer rescue and medical help. Meanwhile, Guy Gardner is looking for a new assignment, having lost his Yellow Lantern partner, but John Stewart is keeping him on Mogo for now. Mysterious powerful figures are behind the attack on Orion, foreshadowed by GL Graf. All he can offer is the warning “Metal.”

I’m not crazy about big interstellar battles, but so far this one has some interesting aspects. Recommended.
