Absolute Green Lantern Vol. 3: Anomalies

No ring. No Corps. No rules. The horror/sci-fi reinvention of the Green Lantern mythos continues in its third Absolute Universe volume!

Tomar Re joins the Absolute Universe, and he will not allow Jo Mullein’s inexperience as a Lantern to compromise his mission. She will join him on a journey into the icy-cold depths of space, where they will take the fight directly to Mogo and the Blackstars—but what they find out there might be more than they are ready for!

What intergalactic war has Jo found herself in the middle of, and can she save Earth before it’s too late?

Writer Al Ewing and artist Sid Kotian deliver a story that fuses cosmic spectacle with emotional truth, in one of the most unique and compelling entries into DC's best-selling Absolute Universe line!
