Green Lantern Corps #30

Two Green Lanterns surge forward in crackling emerald energy, fists clenched and expressions fierce, while a blonde woman clutches a glowing construct at their side — all of them surrounded by ominous, darkened crystalline structures that hint at the Star Sapphire threat named in the story arc. Writer Peter J. Tomasi and cover artist Patrick Gleason bring a palpable urgency to this second chapter of "Sins of the Star Sapphire," with Gleason's bold linework electrifying every inch of the composition. If you've been following the Corps through the charged lead-up to Blackest Night, issue #30 delivers the kind of tense, ring-fueled drama that made 2009 such an exciting time for Green Lantern fans.
