Good thing the ring doesn't run off intelligence.

Mostly because Ron marz fucking sucks.

Collects GREEN LANTERN: REBIRTH #1-6, GREEN LANTERN SECRET FILES 2005 #1, GREEN LANTERN CORPS: RECHARGE #1-5, GREEN LANTERN #1-17, GREEN LANTERN CORPS #1-6, RANN/THANAGAR WAR #1-6 & INFINITE CRISIS SPECIAL #1, GUY GARDNER: COLLATERAL DAMAGE #1-2 and ION #1-12.

so this is just collecting everything in the green lantern line from this time? wonder how the issues will be ordered in this.

While Kyle admittedly held the book going for a period, he's arguably the shittiest Earth Lantern. Mister "Oh I mastered the entire spectrum and can create anything because I'm an artist".

Give me a fucking Warrior Compendium.

I never read the ion stuff and I didn't even know there was a guy mini at this time

Should I just sit out on the Geoff John’s and Green Lantern Corps omnibuses and get this?

depends. the omnis are pretty much guaranteed to be finished, while compendiums are hit or miss. some have been finished, while others seemingly won't be touched again. compendiums are only $60 though, so that is a pretty big upside.

kyle rayner compendium did so bad

Of course. NO ONE LIKES THE CHARACTER!

a lot of people sure pretend to like him then

The real issue is that pretty much everything in the first compendium had been released already, most notably having just been released in a series of "complete Kyle Rayner" trades that stopped around #75-76.

The compendium just repackaged those three complete collections. Adding to this, even the most ardent Kyle stan will admit the run stopped being readable the second Byrne got Donna banned from appearing in the book around issue #89.

Like said it was a lazy ass release of something majority already had since 2017 and can still get both volumes cheaper. DC just did us dirty

Also "Compendiun"

Wasn't Hal an engineer in the Broome originals

it looks like the whole epic green lantern stuff 2005-2012

what did you expect when they had to keep bringing hal back during kyle's run to keep people interested?

Isn't some of Kyle's stuff radioactive because a pedo wrote them?

If you are talking about Gerard Jones, I don't think so. He did write Hal, John, and Guy, but he wasn't on Green Lantern when Kyle was around.

I love Kyle so take that back

I gotta give it to Geoff John’s he really pulled Hal from the depths of khia ville.

to be fair, Kyle's run takes A WHILE to get going

Kyle is a far better approach to GL, he's an artist and therefore his constructs are much more imaginative

he's an artist

this is why he is unlikeable, artists are fags.

Nah Late JLI to early Death of Superman is the GL era we'll never see in Omni cause of that fucker.

Kyle's run was comfy but wrought with troubles outside the book. Fans wanted and liked Hal more so they kept bringing Hal back, at the same time they still wanted to push Kyle so they kept bringing up how much better he was than Hal despite not actually living up to that. Then Donna got kicked off the book which really didn't help because she was the main love interest and most prominent supporting character I will say Marz did the best he could but he couldn't overcome the Wonder Woman editorial and once Marz was off the book the quality dipped even more, the run with the Jim Lee art (I forget who wrote it) is one of the most flaccid comic book runs I've ever read

test pilot from what I remember

hal chads can't stop winning

Anon you should probably see whats going on over here before you say that

absolute universe

Nobody cares.

he's arguably the shittiest Earth Lantern

Still Jonh Stewart

hal chads can't stop winning.

Except you can't have a Hal run without a Kyle run to establish it.

test pilots are usually engineers

they just dont want to pay johns or evs, so avoid reprints.

There are only three runs worth reading for Green Lantern: Mainline GL by Geoff Johns, GLC by Peter Tomasi and the Kyle Rayner era of Ron Marz.

Nah, he's cool.

That's Baz and Jo

Adding to this, even the most ardent Kyle stan will admit the run stopped being readable the second Byrne got Donna banned from appearing in the book around issue #89.

That's not the reason why the run went down the drain. The real reason is that Kyle Rayner lost his greatest enemy, connection to the GLC, and his crossover/event meal ticket. Remember when Kyle and Hal crossed over with Marvel and fought Silver Surfer and Thanos? Remember Zero Hour? Their final interactions in Final Night? When Hal was gone, that's when everything went to shit for Kyle.
Donna Troy was damaged goods and had Terry Long's spawn. Trying to hook Kyle up with a single mother made him look lame.
