Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps Vol. 2: Bottled Light

Robert Venditti — 2017
A part of DC Rebirth! Hal Jordan is about to go from the head of the Green Lantern Corps to an army of one. Jordan's long, illustrious--and tumultuous--tenure with the Corps takes several hairpin turns. At lightspeed. Toward a black hole. In a blender! For starters, the Green Lantern Corps has disappeared, and now Sinestro's own Corps enforces his uniquely brutal brand of law and order in the universe. As a result, Jordan has no ring to sling, or Sector 2814 (a.k.a. Earth) to protect. (So more of the usual for Hal!) Green Lantern veteran Robert Venditti teams up with Rafa Sandoval and Ethan Van Sciver to pilot HAL JORDAN & THE GREEN LANTERN CORPS VOL. 2! Collects HAL JORDAN & THE GREEN LANTERN CORPS #8-13. Rebirth honors the richest history in comics, while continuing to look towards the future. These are the most innovative and modern stories featuring the world's greatest superheroes, told by some of the finest storytellers in the business. Honoring the past, protecting our present, and looking towards the future. This is the next chapter in the ongoing saga of the DC Universe. The legacy continues.

Following on from the previous volume, the Green Lanterns are back but Hal is gone. Sinestro has been defeated, but now the Lanterns are defending a planet from an attack by Starro. While the Lanterns are fighting Starro, Hal Jordan finds himself in some mysterious realm with Abin Sur and other deceased Green Lanterns. The remaining Guardians of the Universe summon Kyle Rayner to try and retrieve Hal. The Starro attack turns out to be a lure, though - bait. Brainiac is behind it, having captured the Green Lanterns (as well as the entire planet). But who's behind him?... It took me far longer than it should've to understand the title of this volume... This is a really, really good story arc. I like this comic series in general, but this was really enjoyable and interesting. 4 stars. As well as the great plot, the writing is clever and pretty funny.
