The improbable redemption of Sinestro continues this issue as he successfully convinces his bitter fellow Korogarans to trust him long enough so that he can clear his home planet of the scum that usurped his yellow-ringed corps. Neither his countrymen nor Hal Jordan are actually convinced that he's much better than the rogue Green Lantern who was rightly considered a villain for years, but that only makes things more interesting. A Sinestro who's allowed to be portrayed as a three-dimensional personality , who retains his backstory but can now operate once again as a hero in his own mind is so much more interesting than most characters in comics normally are. The story now shifts, at least apparently, to Hal's future with Carol, and whatever the Guardians are planning, which will probably lead into the next giant crossover event...
