Green Lantern #5 (DC): This is shaping up to be an incredible run, and it struck me that Grant Morrison is pushing Hal Jordan to places increasingly odd, reminiscent of Colonel Willard straying too far up the river in Apocalypse Now. It's got insanely intricate full page vistas that stop you in your tracks from Liam Sharp, and a last page reveal that promises to be lots of fun.
