And Then I Read: GREEN LANTERN CORPS ANNUAL 2

Do villains sell comics these days? They seem to get a lot more attention than they used to. In the Green Lantern saga, a group of villains, some familiar to me, some not, have been invited to join forces with the Corps, and this book not only details that, it gives all the unpleasant background information on each of them. Sinestro certainly played well in GREEN LANTERN in the recent past, but so far I haven’t seen anyone in this group that intrigues me as he did. They’re more like Larfleeze or some of the Red Lanterns, but putting on a nice face for company. Perhaps they’ll grow on me. Is this another bad decision by the Corps leaders, a DC marketing ploy, or a real idea from the writers that will go somewhere interesting? We’ll see.

Mildly recommended.
