Green Lantern #14

Part of the 2013 "Rise of the Third Army" crossover, this issue brings the title story "Courage" — and the cover by Doug Mahnke and Mark Irwin delivers on that promise with a striking collision of DC's heaviest hitters. A Green Lantern blazing with emerald energy squares off against Superman at center stage, while Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and what appears to be Sinestro round out a tense, chaotic confrontation set against a backdrop of fire and destruction. Geoff Johns leads the full creative team through what looks to be a Justice League-scale reckoning that raises the stakes for any Lantern fan following the New 52.
