Green Lantern Corps #23

A Green Lantern streaks through space with ring ablaze, reaching desperately toward a pink-clad figure below whose outstretched arm and anguished expression suggest a connection hanging by a thread — while two Yellow Lanterns close in from the background. The cover tagline "He Can't Save Them All!" frames the tension perfectly, and Bernard Chang's linework gives the whole scene a kinetic, cosmic urgency that fits squarely in the New 52 era. "A Date with the Executioner" sounds like exactly the kind of high-stakes chapter that Van Jensen and Robert Venditti were delivering to Corps fans in 2013.
