Great kids book!
I love reading this empowering and fun story to my kids (age 6 and 3). It’s important that they see their heritage and their community depicted in a popular medium.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique story, great art, and awesome representation
Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2020

I've been hoping for an Asian American Green Lantern, and this story did not disappoint. It's definitely geared towards younger readers, but I absolutely loved it! It's more focused on the characters and their world, and less on just straight battles/fights. The art is amazing, and the story felt very real. As an Asian American myself, I am so glad to see representation like this - respectful, empowering, and engaging. I hope DC continues to publish books like this!

For a creative person it's always cool to see how who someone is makes a huge impact when given a similar storyline. It's like two painters painting the same sunset. We might start out differently and paint differently but we end up with our own vision of that same sunset.

As someone of mixed Chinese descent, it was so cool to see an Asian character be written with respect to the culture without it becoming a caricature of itself. The art is gorgeous and the message, powerful. Even if you don't even know an Asian person, and maybe even especially then.... Buy this book. We need more stories like it.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Elseworlds story
Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2020
Verified Purchase
Look the book is a Elseworlds tale in which Hal Jordon and most of the other Earth based GLs never came to be. But they appear as Easter eggs of sorts in the story. Being .The Book focuses on Tai Pham and his journey to becoming a Green Lantern. Their is minimum fighting however but considering his young age its not to be expected. Also it has a theme of honoring the past. I like the art and cast it also features a preview for another batman novel form the same imprint. And if your wonder if it beats you over the head with modern social issues no it doesn't. Overall I enjoyed this book its something I feel new and old fans can just jump right into. And as of this review it can be bought fairly cheap 10$ US and below.

The book was cool. Seeing the green lantern on a young kid was unique, different.. An Asian main character is always welcome. And their plight as immigrants was a nice touch to the story.

5.0 out of 5 stars The legacy continues

Hal Jordan is my favourite GL and yes this book is written with younger readers in mind, but I don't care I thought the book was great.

I have noticed the more multicultural elements and people in comics. I always go back to Stan Lee's said. If you want multicultural character. Make one. Do not just chande an established characters, nationality or orientation. Make a new character and establish it. I think this was done very well here.

The story and art work are great. I also like the background story that superheroes do not just beat up the bad guys, but also help out the community in the small things as well, this is also something we can all do. A very enjoyable quick read. Great old and new fans of any age group.
