Although the book have good action this isn't really the meat of it, but the magnificent way of how little by little the Green Lantern Corps has change since Sinestro Corps War.Characters like Soranik Natu, Arisia, Sodam Yat, Sinestro, Mongul, Kyle and Guy have a huge part on this book and the events to come.As usual I don't gove any kind of spoiler, but I'll say this: If you still don't have it and you are going on the road for Blackest Night... GET IT!. I got the hardcover edition, which is pretty standard and overpriced for the number of pages, so if you get the paperback edition you'll get the same content for a WAY better price. That way this book would be a perfect 5 stars. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Emerald Excellence! *by A***L on Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2009* The concept of the Green Lantern Corps is one of the genuinely genius ideas in comics period. Superficially similar in nature to the Jedi Knights of Star Wars, the Green Lantern Corps are essentially space police, and their tales chronicle the exploits of sentient representatives from various solar systems around various galaxies, given immensely powerful green rings that are powered by will. Lanterns know no fear, or are at least able to overcome it.This volume collects issues 33-38 of the regular ongoing series, and NOT 33-39 as you will see from the inside page if you purchase it. There are however, pages from issue 39 included in this volume as part of the collection but they're sandwiched in so sneakily you won't realize unless you own the individual issues. I suppose there are two ways to look at it. You can see the "extra" pages as a bonus or you can see it as a rip-off considering that they could have just thrown in the entire issue 39 and be done with it.In whatever event, Emerald Eclipse is yet another excellent collection in one of the best series being published by DC comics right now, which is the Green Lantern Corps (GLC). It builds on an increasingly impressive library of great stories about the GLC that are all available on Amazon and which I highly recommend for anyone interested in science fiction/fantasy, comics, horror, superheroes, space, alien worlds, aliens, and the military. It's a dense volume in which a lot happens, many characters lives are changed or affected by the events unfolding and where the action, once it starts, is pretty much non-stop.Essentially two stories told side by side, the main plot of the volume revolves around a riot on Oa, the home planet of the GLC and the Guardians of the Universe; incredibly old immortal beings who have appointed themselves as cosmic judges over all creation. The other plot involves the attempted occupation of the planet Daxam by the ruthless and cruel alien Mongul, who has usurped control of the fear powered rings of the Sinestro Corps, (so called because it is named after the founder of that corps and the greatest enemy of the greatest Green Lantern, Hal Jordan. Hal's stories take place in the main GL series.) Members of the Sinestro Corps wear yellow rings analagous to the rings worn by members of the GLC, only powered by fear instead of will. And in addition to these two main stories, writer Peter J. Tomasi weaves in one or two additional subplots which dovetail in and out of the main action pretty seamlessly and expand our understanding of our cast of characters.Everything about Emerald Eclipse is dense. From the art to the plot to the dialogue to the cast, the story is chock full of everything. For one thing, expect something significant to happen in each chapter and for events to unfold at a breakneck pace. The book itself is about a large rotating cast of characters, which adds to the sense of complexity and which could make this volume tough for newcomers to the GLC concept. Sparked by the "accidental" release of a newly incarcerated Red Lantern, a full blown riot on Oa quickly engulfs the planet and the Lanterns must do all in their power to prevent it from destroying everything they hold dear. The riot itself is entertaining and is the result of a betrayal from a source the Lanterns would never suspect. Compromises are made, uneasy alliances forged, and brutality ensues at some cost to the rioting prisoners and the Lanterns as well.The writing by Tomasi is solid and even confident in places, if also somewhat bombastic. Tomasi's villains are grand talkers, and Tomasi continues an error from previous chapters by making Mongul - one of the main villains here - a mad despot suffering from delusions of grandeur instead of a simply menacing manifestation of evil incarnate. His dialogue is occasionally over the top ("It's blazing combat time," exclaims Lantern Guy Gardner, while even Mongul quotes "The Ten Commandments.") In the first chapter, the writer's habit of having main characters quote lines from famous films is a little silly and draws you out of the action. But overall, Tomasi's strength is an ability to deliver complex plots and to write action that always entertains. A brutal fight between Mongul and Arkillo, one of Sinestro's first lieutenants, is a highlight, as is the actual riot sequence itself. And Tomasi gives his characters some shades beyond the simple archetypes normally served up in comics. Kyle Rayner's method of dealing with his grief over the loss of fallen comrades is much in character, while Sodam Yat's response to the plight of his own people is surprising but nonetheless reassuringly heroic. The intrigue involving the truth about Soranik Natu's true lineage is genuinely ironic, and all the characters seem distinct and mostly three dimensional.Perhaps my only major complaint with the story is that in the end, the intervention of the Alpha Lanterns helps to resolve the wholesale violence somewhat too easily, but Tomasi is smart enough to understand that the action is merely a prelude to the real story going on in GLC at the moment, namely the role and nature of the guardians and their recent decisions, and the ethical implications of their self-appointed status. Part of the attraction of GLC and the Green Lantern concept as a whole these days is all the political and cosmic-moral intrigue that informs so many of the stories.As usual, Patrick Gleason does a reasonably good job on the art, and produces some of his most assured, most consistent work to date. Although he never completely surpresses his cartoonist urges, he manages to be more penciller than cartoonist in this volume. The problem with Patrick continues to be that his panel and page layout leave something to be desired and his story flow suffers a bit. He's not a lazy artist though, and his panels are all full of astounding detail which unfortunately add to the confusion on some occasions. Basically, he sure can draw the heck out of a panel, but don't always count on being able to tell what's going on. I think Patrick just doesn't realiz that a human brain just can't process the level of information he's tryng to include in each panel on each page. But overall? The art is entertaining and serves the frenetic, intense energy of the writing and multi-plot approach reasonably well, and the good outweighs the poor.I highly recommend this volume. And you can tell it's something special, as it's the first hardcover collection of GLC that DC has done since this new series was launched a few years back. All the others have been paperbacks. If you're a GLC fan, and just want some GL goodness, you can't go wrong with Emerald Eclipse! ### ⭐⭐⭐ Good story but not needed too much *by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2018* Although this was good to see how dark the Guardians have come, I would not seem this volume was particularly needed. The plot was a bit everywhere as well, and although there was some nice revelations, it felt more as a filler story to Blackest Night --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/13339366-green-lantern-corps-emerald-eclipse](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/13339366-green-lantern-corps-emerald-eclipse) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
