    Haven't really been feeling Young Justice for a while now, but there's a lot to like here. The art and the feel of the whole thing are fantastic. The image of some kids watching a GL get stuck up is very striking in a good way.

    We walk on the path to Secher Nbiw. Though hard fought, we walk the Golden Path.

    Issue 7 was amazing.

    Superlad, have you not read 7?

    You need to read 7.

    Kinda not surprised Bendis wrote a Green Lantern getting shot to death by normal bullets, but I guess it's probably the gauntlet's fault.

    If a GL is on his knees in a trash heap, I'm assuming the ring is offline. There's no rule saying an alien life form needs to be more durable than we are, so I'm willing to accept an execution working. This isn't too egregious for Bendis.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I have a Legion status quo to be humdrum over.

    It's probably the gauntlet. It's just having something so mundane happen to a GL that just kind of rankles me a little.

    The issue agrees with you. A character just outright verbalizes it.

    I read it, and thought it was a whole lot of fun, but this was the issue that got me back in. Pretty sure this is my favorite issue of Bendis' Young Justice so far. Very well put together.

    Well, is good that Bendis is finally delivering some origins. Mind you, this should have happened very early on but hey, better late than never?

    And Teen Lantern's backstory is interesting enough, Bendis plays with the source of her powers as a mystery which is something that he also did in Naomi which makes this seems a bit repetitive but at least allows for a decent plot-point.

    The Earth 3 setting is still good, mostly because Bendis is handling brand new characters he created instead of messing-up established ones like he did when he handled the Crime Syndicate. There's also a compelling idea about if the team should save this world or escape.

    Nice art. A decent read overall.

    It'd be nice on that front, but I can never be too sure in these kinds of instances .
