JUSTICE LEAGUE of AMERICA
Kyle Rayner never asked to be a hero. But a chance encounter with an extraterrestrial leaves him in possession of a powerful weapon in the form of a ring. With godlike abilities and a new name -- Green Lantern -- Kyle becomes a super hero and a member of the Justice League. But when he arrives at League headquarters to nd his teammates missing, his investigation into their disappearance leads him on a journey unlike any he, or anyone else, has ever experienced before. Traveling to the end of space itself, where the universe is in the process of coming into existence, Green Lantern must unravel a strange series of secrets before he and the Justice League are annihilated -- along with every living creature in the universe!

Having very little familiarity with the Green Lantern arcs, I was still familiar enough to feel that this story was a complete travesty. I spent most of the book trying to follow the convoluted storyline. I borrowed this and several other Justice League novels from a friend and, with the exception of this one, I rather enjoyed them. I did not enjoy this one at all and am very glad I did not spend any money on it.

do you really want to read a book that has Superman say "Go ahead, lovers of evil,"??? because I don't, but I did...regretfully. I know that writers are allowed to write poorly, so this isn't an attack at O'Neil, he just seemed uncomfortable writing about the character. So, bottom line, the story is really bad, the only reason I gave it 2 stars is because the last paragraph is one of the best paragraphs I'd ever read

Like others, I felt compelled to write a review of this book. Many others have taken offense at how this book changes the origin story of Kyle Rayner.

This one became interestingly philosophical. A nice thing to do, given how the Lanterns work, plus, it had Hal and Kyle, a neat trick. This does show the origin of Kyle Rayner as Green Lantern, and how hopeless he is to start with. He picks it up though, and later on he ends up in a thought construct with Hal Jordan, and another representation of a hero, which involves some more in depth discussion of being a GL.

I give this book 4 of 5 because I read it in under 2 days...so that means i was hooked. the beginning was a little shaky, its written from Kyle's point of view. like a memoir or a biography. very strange and it takes some time getting used too. but the plot and characters are strong and well as the setting and the overall theme. i would have preferred that the book be about the bestest green lantern: Hal Jordan, alas it was about Kyle Raynor and its rocky beginning as the new Green Lantern. but, its still ...
