The Sinestro Corps War - Parts 1-3

I was able to sit down tonight and finish reading all three parts of the Sinestro Corps War. Written by Geoff Johns and Gibbons, with art by Van Sciver, Reis and Gleason. I've included all of the covers (plus variants for you cover hungry Fanboys). Quite frankly it is one of the best Crossovers I've ever read and literally has me counting the days until the next issue comes out. Basically Alan Moore set the stage for this entire thing, he wrote an issue about Hal Jordan's predecessor going to a forbidden planet. On the planet he was given a prophecy about his future, this is the last part of that prophecy coming true. If you didn't pick up the Sinestro Corps Special, don't worry they did a second printing of it... that being said if you missed out on the second printing, don't worry they're doing a third printing of it. So right now there's the Green Lantern's that represent Willpower and the absents of Fear, then there's the Sinestro Corps that represent Fear. Back in the day the GL Corps' rings didn't work on yellow, because Parallax (The Embodiment of the emotion Fear) was trapped in the central battery for the GL's (The Central Battery is what charges all the GL's rings) and his presence made their rings useless on yellow. I know that was way to nerdy for anyone to follow but hey it doesn't matter, you can't still enjoy a good story.

So here's some basic info for you, Sinestro was Hal Jordon's teacher. Jordan caused Sinestro to fall from grace as the Greatest GL ever, and Jordan took his title. Sinestro's back and he's not happy with Jordan or Kyle Rayner (Ion the Torchbearer aka the embodiment of Willpower) I'll just let you read the first 3 pages of the Special and it will pretty much tell you why. Like I said it's only three issues into this crossover and I'm not even sure how many there are. Love has it's own Corps starting, as was learned in issue 20 of Green Lantern and there's still 4 more emotions out there. Each of these emotions may or may not have it's own Corps, but only time will tell. Over all I'm giving this crossover a solid 10.0. The writing is top notch and with Johns working with his 2 best Green Lantern artist, it will be hard for it not to look as good as it's written. I'll do an update on the Crossover and if the scores changed I'll let you know but right now it's sitting on Pretty St. riding it's perfect 10. Enjoy the first 3 pages of the Special and oh yeah the last page too! SPOILER ALERT!
