Comics this week

Green Lantern #10- Oh my? Just when you thought that’s it for the Indigo Tribe, they returned from the dead (pun intended). Writer Geoff Johns did a fine job here, not least of which was to show just how great of a lantern Abin Sur was. Even in death, his actions have an effect on everyone including his enemies. Artist Doug Mahnke also shows he does not need great battle scenes to show off just how good he is. After a few lackluster issues, it’s good to have Green Lantern back to greatness!

Demon Knights #10- This is a strange issue. Everything you need for a good fantasy issue is here; the travel, the magic, the battle, the monsters, the great art of Diogenes Neves…but the issue just didn’t gel. After some thought, I finally figured out why. The issue starts with the knights at sea in the midst of a long sea voyage. They landed and have a long overland journey to the ruins of Camelot.  By the end of the issue, they reached Camelot. So much for the long journey! This issue was too fast. Writer Paul Cornell seems to be rushing things and that ruined the issue for me.
