Editorial Reviews:

Test pilot Hal Jordan was chosen to represent an intergalactic police force created by the oldest beings in existence, the Guardians of the Universe. He now protects Earth and all of space sector 2814 from every extraterrestrial threat imaginable, armed with a specially crafted power ring that turns his will into reality.

In this volume, Hal has been framed for murder and is a fugitive on the run from a legion of intergalactic bounty hunters and the new Global Guardians. He must clear his name and discover who put a price on his head as well as the shocking reason why.

Summary: Green Lantern Vol. 3: Wanted - Hal Jordan
Comment: A good read, not what I expected as far as the actual plot went.
I was looking for something closer to the Inifinate crisis time line.
This was not it. I only gave it 3 stars for my personal disappointment.
The story is well written. If you are a Hal Jordan Green Lantern fan, you will not be disapointed with the read.

Summary: Wraps up the first two volumes
Comment: Altough theres some good Green lantern action, this is not the most inspiring of Green Lantern comics. The stories presented here are really worth something for those who have read the previous two volumes, if you have read them and you like Grren Lantern it may be for you.

The first story arc completes the story of the plot against Hal Jordan, wich is nice, but is not as impressive as the lost lanterns or Hector Hammond and Black Hand. It's nevertheless a good story, with good art, and someinteresting insights in Hal Jordan's character. It aslo show some interesting pages (one or two) introducing elements form the Sinestro Corps Wars, wich is also nice.

Ths second story its interesting as it shows the forging of the first violet ring, and explins its relation with the Star Zaphire and the Zamarons. The real problem is the art, which is really, really awfull. It takes at least one star from my review.

Summary: Don't buy this book.
Comment: DC Comics should not be giving Daniel Acuna work. He is horrible. This book is a waste of time and money because of his idea of art. Run far, run fast.

Summary: He's a wanted man...
Comment: Hal Jordan has been a busy man since writer Geoff Johns brought him back from the dead. He's re-joined the Justice League, played a vital role during the cataclysmic events of Infinite Crisis, and now he's been framed and is wanted for being an international terrorist. Yeah, the poor guy just can't catch a break. This is why Geoff Johns is one of, if not the, best superhero writers in comics today. His obvious affection for the Green Lantern mythos has made his run on the title the best the character has seen in eons, and the new twists that Johns has put on old foes has been a sight to behold to say the least. Case in point, old foe Star Saphire gets a new twist on her powers and abilities as she and Hal go head to head; all the while Hal fights to clear his name and save the day. The artwork by Ivan Reis and Daniel Acuna (to a lesser degree) is wonderful as well to boot. As the previous review stated, one gets the feeling that Johns is gearing towards something big happening in the near future, and indeed something is as the Green Lantern mythos is getting re-established for a new generation of comic readers, and will attempt to be propelled to big time territory. The best part of this is with Johns at the helm, the possibilities are almost endless. All in all, Wanted - Hal Jordan is the best TPB in Johns' Green Lantern relaunch yet, and even for those who haven't been following his run but are fans of the character, consider this TPB a must own.

Summary: Geoff Johns hits his stride
Comment: Green Lantern: Wanted - Hal Jordan compiles issues 14 through 20 of the current GL series. The first story covers the capture of Hal Jordan and two of his fellow pilots by terrorists where they are tortured for over three months prior to escaping. When the terrorists are located again, Hal goes in to capture them and rescue a recaptured comrade when an unexpected turn of events causes all hell to break loose and he ends up being branded an international criminal. This roller coaster ride ultimately leads Hal Jordan to a figure linked to the day Hal first became a Green Lantern as well as events that will play a large part in his imminent future.

The second story arc in this collection features the return of an old Green Lantern foe, Star Sapphire. This time around there is a new twist to how her powers are generated. I won't spoil the details but it is an interesting spin on an old character and could have major ramifications for the Green Lantern Corp in future stories.

Both stories move along very well and appear to form a foundation for larger events in the future. The art switches from Ivan Reis in the first story to Daniel Acuna in the second. Acuna paints in a somewhat funky style, while Reis provides highly detailed pencils makes so it is a particularly jarring change. Fortunately, Geoff Johns writes the entire volume so there is at least some cohesion.

This book is not only very entertaining in its own right, it appears to be a foundation for major events in the future. I'm wary of every saying "Green Lantern will never be the same again" because that tag line is used all the time and is virtually never true. I will say that in the near future, events will likely unfold whose seeds are planted here. The bottom line is that whether reading solely for the present or preparing for the future this book is well worth owning.
