So the truth about the Indigo Lanterns is revealed, and it’s pretty much what we all expected after the last few issues, they are basically an army of evil criminals who were brainwashed by Abin Sur into feeling compassion. Creepy stuff, but what I liked most about this issue was that it pretty much confirmed that the Guardians are the next big villains and that the next GL event will be about the fight against them. I’ve hated those little blue bastards for ages now so it’s good to see Johns take the first steps towards ending them. Although of course, now that the strange little monkey dude destroyed the Indigo Lantern, getting rid of the Guardians will probably be pretty hard. It was also cool to finally get to see some more Sinestro back-story, to see what his relationship with Abin Sur’s sister was like. Is Arin Sur the mother of Soranik Natu, or was that just a one-night-stand for Sinestro? Next issue looks like it’s going to be a good’un, the Indigos are now back to their normal, totally crazy bad-guy states, things are not going to be pretty for Hal and Sinestro.
