The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of STAR
TREK/GREEN LANTERN #2 from IDW Publishing. The story is by Mike Johnson, art by
Angel Hernandez, colors by Alejandro Sanchez and letters by Neil Uyetake.
The Green Lantern Hal Jordan does his best to handle the
powerless Enterprise AND the newly yellow ring powered General Chang. Chekov
quickly masters the blue ring and assists with the starship’s getaway. And a
new alliance is formed, if only to solve the mystery of what is happening. Chang
returns to the Klingon homeworld of Qo’nos to seize power, but meets resistance
from an unlikely source. Meanwhile, the red and orange rings find a wearer of
their own on the planets Gornar and Romulus. A dicey situation just became even
more complicated…
This has been an intriguing crossover so far. We haven’t
yet discovered how Hal got here, but I have a feeling that shoe will drop in
the next issue. Mike Johnson is no stranger to rebooted Star Trek and I kinda
like how he’s handling Hal Jordan so far. Bringing in General Chang this early
was an interesting choice, given that there are other classic Klingon foes that
he could have used. Angel Hernandez’s art is very slick and beautiful; really
like the Lantern/Trek mashup designs. Can’t wait to read the next issue!
STAR TREK/GREEN LANTERN #2 is in stores now, or available
for ordering at www.idwpublishing.com.
