With Khan now truly in control of the Red Ring of Rage and Sinestro on the way to the centre of the Universe to locate the Planet Oa and recharge the Yellow Ring of Fear, all isn’t looking rosy for the Federation and their Ring Bearer allies.
So far throughout these previous issues Mike Johnson and artist Angel Hernandez have delivered another excellent crossover series of Star Trek and Green Lantern. Though, being honest, I am learning more in the way of the Green Lantern lore with Stranger Worlds than I did with the previous chapter Spectrum War.
With Kirk and the Away Team – which also consists of Hal Jordan – finally coming face-to-face with a now insanely powerful red ring-wearing Khan and his zealot-like augment army, things are not in all honesty stacked in their favour, as Khan decides on which crew member he should murder first.
Elsewhere Sinestro has discovered Oa and its occupants, who are oblivious to this Yellow Ring-Bearer and his powers; here he doesn’t waste time in showing his true colour. Meanwhile on the Klingon homeworld a new contender for the throne of the Emperor has arrived and Larfleeze is caught off-guard.
Again as with last month Star Trek/Green Lantern #4 has certainly found its stride, from the opening pages of Khan showing off his new-found powers, to Sinestro wasting no time on Oa and to the Klingon Homeworld. Everything is moving rapidly in this issue, with only a short break for breath as the crew of the Enterprise discuss being stuck between a rock and hard place.
Another great release from the pen of Mike Johnson also a special mention must be given for Tony Shasteen’s ‘Retailer Incentive Cover’ which is very good indeed.
Rating: 8/10
