Das Trade fasst die meissten One-Shots zum Sinestro Corps War zusammen. Leider sind die einzelnen Geschichten eher Hit or Miss, und ich fand eigentlich nur die Cyborg Superman/Superman Prime sowie die Tales aus dem Book of Parallax interessant, der Rest eher Filler.
So ist der Buch eher Mittelmäßig und kann eigentlich auch übersprungen werden.

This is the first skippable portion of Johns's run on Green Lantern/Green Lantern Corps. It's not by any means bad, it's just a collection of filler stories to flesh out some of the characters involved in the Sinestro Corps War. And while it starts out focused on members of the Sinestro Corps, eventually it, like all Green Lantern books, ends up being about Kyle Rainer, Hal Jordan, John Stewart, and Guy Gardener.

There are some helpful backstories for those completely unfamiliar with Lantern lore, but none of it is necessary, nor did it add to my enjoyment of the larger series.

This was a nice intro to the Sinestro Corps! As a complete newbie learning about the GL universe, it was good to get a look at "the other side."

A good collection to get caught up on the who's who in the current Green Lantern arc, but most of the stories are weak. For new readers and complete-ists only.

These backup stories from the main event aren't much to write home about.

I talk a little about this run in a Green Lantern themed episode of the All the Books Show: https://soundcloud.com/allthebooks/off-the-books-no-one-asked-green-lantern-first-flights

Really helps you understand everything that happens in The Sinestro Corps War. Highly recommend it.

Some background tales of Sinestro Corps members and a few Green Lantern ones too. I really liked the first part of this but the last half seemed kinda filler, as it was Green Lantern Corps stuff and then files on different things involving this story. Still a great read.

Good but confusing and there's a lot of dead-ends or TBCs for other comic titles I'm guessing.

Since I hadn't read far enough back to get some of the backstories, it was nice getting a look at pieces of them.

I liked that this was a collection of short stories (so to speak), it helped me understand more about what's going on with this storyline. Also the list of Green Lanterns and Yellow Lanterns was pretty helpful.
