The story telling in the series has been pretty strong to this point but this most recent episode was a disappointment. Seems like Carol and the Star Sapphires have just been shoe-horned into the story. It just didn't gel with the rest of the series for me.

You probably would have thought differently had Carol kept her ring.

This episode completely erased the foul taste of the last. Nicely done. Prelude to Blue Laterns I'm guessing? What is Hal's team going to do for a power latern now?
Completely off topic. The Animal Man shorts are AWESOME. They need to adapt that into an on going series of it's own. I love art style and the stories are just hilarious. MAKE IT HAPPEN DC!

^That wasn't the only power battery on the ship. Hal and Kilowog each have their own. So one of them was turned blue, my guess is it was Hal's. Remember though, the ship itself is powered by a rather large power battery.
Saint Walker will showing up again soon, I'm sure. |

Just finished the episode. I thought the mind-control device was a nice twist to get the real pass-code. Didn't see it comin'.
Hawkmen served their purpose, I guess. They didn't steal the show or anything.. the fights with Bumpy were cool though. Solid, Solid episode. It will be interesting if any of the hawkmen do in fact show up at some point in the future to fight the RLs

Plus, their ship is powered by one ginormous GL battery. I think they'll be fine.

Well let's just say that things just got real and hit the fan. I knew as soon as they dropped those planet slaying bombs that the asteroid gate was not going to be enough to stop Atrocitus. You know, the Red Lanterns seem to be REALLY compelling and resourceful villains here. I wonder how the Sinestro Corps will be able to top them. I am on the edge of my seat for the next episode...I must know what happens next!

Good episode. Curious to see who the next Blue Lantern is going to be.

Last week's episode "Invasion" was amazing, I liked how they included the Saint Walker's back story before he becomes a Blue lantern, but this week's episode is all out action packed !
The next one "Homecoming" is the season one finale episode, where Hal is about to reach Oa. As Guardians are left with almost no GL Corps to defend Oa and Hal, Razer and Kilowog are left stranded in space and Atrocitus reached there, things become ugly. Preview clips VIDEO-CLick to Watch!:

Looks mind blowing.

A good ending to the first half of the season with lots of action and drama. We have the return of the Star Sapphires and the debut of Saint Walker as the first Blue Lantern. Good to see Hal and Carol reunited while Razer and Aya also together. Aya shed a tear was her moment. I hope they keep the cast intact for the second half while add more characters like Saint Walker and the 4-armed GL, along with Star Sapphire Ga'Tia. I'm surprised Queen Iolande didn't appear.

Fantastic episode to close the season. If the movie was half as good as this series they would have made fortune.
Brilliant and this is coming from a Marvel guy who cares little for DC. I wish season 1 was released on Blu ray rather than DVD as it would be a day 1 purchase. |

Pretty cool series so far. Howzabout they introduce Tomar Re soon. Still Sinestro can't be too far off either....

I liked everything about this episode except the fight between Hal and Atrocitus, it was almost as if they suddenly realized that the episode's time was running out so they took the shortcut.
The main high points were - Saint Walker as Blue Lantern fighting along with Mogo and kilowog. Star Sapphires helping Hal and Razer to reach Oa. Aya shows emotions like Humans. Overall a good finale, but it could have been much better. Looking forward to the start of the next season, hope that they show more GL corps and continue with Aaya and Razer as supporting cast.

It's so obvious that Saint Walker represents Christianity. His transcendental pose is very similar (in fact a mirror image) of this:

Mogo stole the show for me.
Solid episode. I don't read GL comics, do blue lanterns really boost GL's powers or is that created for the show.

That's really how it works in the comics.
