Flashpoint Issue 1: Abin Sur review by Marcmann comics

The Flashpoint series has been so far an interesting cycle. With wonders of whether or not this series will expand upon the DC Universe, It's guaranteed to bring a power impact to the comic world In general. With a Flashpoint for Batman, Wonder Woman, Power Girl, the Flash, and now we have a series for Abin Sur. This Is apart of the Green Lantern collection, but It's documentations are slightly different the least to say. Issue 1 pretty much explains the whole she-bang.

The story starts off as Abin Sur telling his beliefs of how all life Is eternally sacred, and that his sister, Arin Sur, who Is believed to be dead In the actual Green Lantern series, goes back Into time and has not yet found the bond between Cyborg and other fellow DC Universe characters. Sinestro then arrives onto earth to warn Abin Sur about the incidents that took place In the Blackest Night days. Sinestro and Abin Sur must team together to defeat Nekron. With Killwog found dead, Abin Sur Is the last hope. So Sinestro and Abin Sur have a talk with the Guardians of the universe to have a talk about the next move, but the Guardians have a much different agenda In mind.

Upon the planet earth, there are over 6 million lives at stake. The Guardians are doing everything In their power to make sure sector 2814 which Is In serious doubt by Abin Sur. Theres a White Entity that floats upon the universe and everything within power must be stopped from getting within the hands of Nekron. Abin then takes a ship to earth for safety, which Is then Attacked by a source of Purple energy. Meanwhile Sinestro Is on the planet Ysmault, home of the Red Lantern Corps. Come to find out, there Is only one Red Lantern left and thats Attrocious, whom Is now Sinestro's prisoner. Since Attrocious Is responsible for the release of Nekron and killing others In the Blackest Night, he will be held responsible for the trail of Flashpoint.

This Is a good first read. I could tell they focused the look of Abin Sur and Sinestro based on the upcoming Green Lantern movie. The artwork Is fantastic. The Flashpoint series Is definitely looking to be a great ongoing series for the summer of 2011. Good read for anyone who Is Into Blackest Night series, especially If you want a new follow up In the DC Universe.
