In 1994 Judd Winick (the writer of this comic series as represented in this graphic novel) was one of the featured cast on MTV's "Real World". He wrote a very moving (and much awarded) book called "Pedro and Me" based on his friendship with his HIV positive roommate on the show, Pedro Zemora.
Why is this relevant to this Green Lantern comic? Because Mr. Winick has a gift for taking the complex and making it accessible. For writing a comic book that deals with issues, but stays in the genre, and more importantly - stays true to the characters already established.
The story arc in this graphic novel concerns one of gay-bashing and its handled excellently, with no easy solutions and no cliched answers. The emotions are real.
Visually, the pages pop with very well done art and ink, but it is the combination of the strong imagery with the polished and thoughtful writing that make this novel stand out.
Try this graphic series - you'll be introduced to a much overlooked and very human superhero (The Green Lantern) and still be entertained with a well written and thought provoking (but not preachy) story.
