Book Review: Green Lantern Vol. 1: No Fear

-

Green Lantern Vol. 1: No Fear by Geoff Johns
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

"The plane engine goes dead."
"Warning. Power levels at 0.0%..."
"The ring follows."
"Believe it or not...I still got a plan."

This book heavily focuses on Hal Jordan and his past as well as the reprecussions of the last book. We meet the pilot, Cowgirl, Hal tries getting back into the Air Force and Kilowog tries rebuilding the Green Lantern Corps.

We also get some awesome villains such as the Manhunters, Black Hand (again), King Shark (!!!) and a very moonstruck Hector Hammond.

I enjoyed learning that the German language is actually Krolotean, and that the other new Lanterns are surprised that Hal Jordan is smart enough to speak since he's from Earth and all.

Yep, I'm quickly becoming a fan of this whole world. It really doesn't hurt when there are stories illustrated by Darwyn Cooke and Simone Bianchi.

Criteria: -Must be in a fantasy or period piece (exceptions where time-travel or feudalism is involved) . -Must wear some type of armor  (cloth, fur, etc. armor acceptable) . -Must actually be capable of fighting  (not just wearing armor for show). -Must wield a weapon other than a gun (i.e. a staff, a bow, a sword, etc) . They are listed alphabetically according to the movie or show they appeared in.  If you can think of anyone I've missed, feel free to leave a comment. ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭
