I this story by Doug Mahnke, Is a story That I really liked. The main character is Simon Baz, in the beginning Simon grew up in a muslim home and people beat him up because of that and were mean to him and his sister. That led to the problem in the story because that resulted into a life of crime for him in robbing cars. One time there was a bomb in a car that he stole and he was blamed for that act of terrorism. He was put in jail so he wouldn't do it again.At there solution of the story he broke out of the pentagon with the help of the Green Lantern Ring. At the end he becomes Green Lantern.
My opinion on the Muslim Green Lantern is that he might be not so good because one he had a life of crime by robbing …show more content…
I also think that the story might have more than one purpose to the book because that would make it a lot more interesting for the readers. Also they might ad that simmons sister joins him in a crime fighting task force to make the story move to make some more books in the series or make a whole new series with the task force.
A connection to this story is the batman comic book. Because they both have a similarity, they both had something bad happen to them. So they wanted to get back at the people so when they had the chance to become a superhero they took the chance so they could do something about there family or friends.
My final thoughts on this great comic book is that the author tries to tell us that no just white people can be superheroes. Also that there needs to be more diversity in the world. The theme of the book is I would say action mostly because it’s not the same as the original green lantern so you can’t tell what's coming or not. My opinion on the book is I love the idea of putting a new face on the Green Lantern but at first I didn’t get the idea because I didn’t know really who was who because it jumped from then and now and at first I didn’t know who the main character when it switched to now. After all though I really enjoyed reading this
