| Fun new start to the updated Hal Jordan staus quo, with some re-imagined classic villains. Of course the first three issues about Manhunters. The art is a little inconsistent, all good on their own merits but drastically different styles every few is ...more | |
"Wow what a stunning book this is, certainly makes it into my top 10.
Brutally violent and amazingly moving this is a book that will have you rooting for the bad guy. The style of writing, no quotations, little grammar and words melting together was co" Read more of this review » |

"A searing sift through the slurried slums of post-war Brooklyn. The only book that uses shock, violence and vulgarity to depict a world of tragic isolation that truly pierces the heart, gets you so deeply you feel you are THERE, in this boneyard of b"

"I really love this run and the further it goes on, the better it gets. Here we're still letting Hal get his life on Earth back together. I like how we see that the old timer GLs on OA don't trust him after all the stuff that went down in the 90s. Joh"

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

Hi, Ray! I am more than thankful to find someone who truly puts their time into weighing out all of the necessities for when it comes to finding info! How do I see if there's a book you've read, because I would love to read your review? I want to read your 'Less Is More by Jason Hickel' if you've done it? Many thanks :)
