Green Lantern #12 puts Hal Jordan back on his heels when the Durlans swarm him with overwhelming forces, but the sudden appearance of a Sapphire light may be Jordan’s salvation.
Is Green Lantern #12 Good?
When last we left Hal Jordan and his merry band of rebels in Green Lantern #11, they stormed the United Planets council to stop the council’s destructive misdeeds. Sadly, the rebels found out too late that the diverse group of council members had all been replaced by shapeshifting Durlans. Meanwhile, Carol Ferris hastily decided to elope with her boyfriend, but the ceremony was interrupted at the last minute by the materialization of a Star Sapphire ring.
In Green Lantern #12, we start with Thaaros’s lanterns surrounding Kyle Rayner and his allies in a lower level of the United Planets (UP) headquarters. Rayner is still disturbed by the emotional spectrum, and when the guards try to take him into custody, Rayner explodes with a light that knocks out the guards and obliterates their Lantern uniforms and rings.
In the UP council chamber, Hal Jordan and his allies desperately fight against the Durlans and their guards, but the numbers are too strong. Before long, Jordan’s fellow Lanterns are captured. Jordan tries to escape to get reinforcements, but he’s blocked by the Unseeing in orbit because they want to know where he got his ring and its power.
The blockade gives Thaaros’s Lanterns time to catch up and batter Jordan with a hail of punches.
Suddenly, the group is blinded by Sapphire-colored light. Carol Ferris has arrived, and she’s pissed. Carol scatters the Unseeing with a race car construct and blasts the attacking Lanterns back. She swoops in to support Jordan and teleports them away to Earth.
Later, Thaaros is enraged to learn Jordan got away, and more importantly, Jordan has access to an undocumented Battery. Thaaros appears in holographic form to Amanda Waller on Earth and coerces her into cooperating with his effort to capture Jordan, starting with military support for his agent en route to Earth.
The issue ends with Jordan and Carol having a tender moment in Jordan’s trailer when joint UP and Earth military forces arrive to take the rogue Lantern in.
