Green Lantern #6

After being returned to Earth with no way to power the ring Sinestro left him Hal Jordan picks up the pieces of his life, and his relationship with Carol Ferris, and puts his past as Green Lantern behind him. Of course the universe has other plans.

As Carol tries to get used to the new Hal, Sinestro searches out Lyssa Drak but what he learns from the Book of the Black shocks him to his core. Now knowing what the Guardians of the Universe have in store, with foreknowledge of his own death, and with the entire universe on the brink of disaster, Sinestro has no choice but to search out the only man he can trust - even if that man's name is Hal Jordan.

I really enjoyed this issue. It was nice, given the tumultuous events of Jordan's life over the past few years, to see him given a chance to enjoy life - even without a ring. Of course this respite was going to be short lived, but now we'll find out just how far Sinestro is willing to go to stop the future he glimpsed from happening. Worth a look.
