Episode 123 - Emerald Dawn

Co-hosts Myron Rumsey and Phil Bova are back to talk about more Green Lantern comics in an oversized Podcast of Oa episode.   To kick off our comic book talk Phil and Myron talk about what books we'd recommend to someone new to Green Lantern and then discuss the recent tease for DC's Heroes in Crisis event and what impact it could have on Kyle Rayner.  The pair talk about the latest issues of the Green Lantern comics, first with Aaron Gillespie's second issue in Green Lanterns #49 and then with the latest chapter in Robert Venditti's "Darkstars Rising" arc in Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #47.  There's also some listener feedback and Phil and Myron launch a new "Retro Review" where they talk about the classic Green Lantern: Emerald Dawn miniseries from 1989.
