Comment(s):
- Story continues from Green Lantern Vol. 6 #12.
- Two years has passed in the Dark Sectors.
- Originally introduced in Green Lantern Vol. 6 #6, Igrotti Ki, Pyke and R'Dexa still have yet to be specifically identified. Two of them have remained in Dark Sector 5, while the third presumably returned to the "normal" sectors with their fellow Green Lanterns.
Solicitation:
- John Stewart has been trapped in the dark sectors for months with the rest of his Green Lantern comrades. With the power of the godstorm at his disposal, John’s using everything he can to take down Esak, the mad New God, and bring his fellow Corpsmen home. John will need to become something new to win the war against Esak: he’ll need to become the Emerald Knight!
