And Then I Read: GREEN LANTERNS #30

Simon and Jessica have been sent a billion years back in time to the planet Malthus, home of the blue guys who became the Guardians of the Universe at a time when they were still figuring out the first power rings. They have teamed with the first seven recruits from the Green Lantern Corps and are trying to take down Volthoom, the first Lantern, whose ring combines the full spectrum of colorful powers. It’s making him rather crazy and extremely dangerous. Simon does not even have his own power ring, it was destroyed by Volthoom, whose powers seem to trump even the team set against him. How can they possibly win and get everyone where they’re supposed to be?

Well done, and I enjoyed the many art spreads in this issue. Recommended.
