Personally I think that in an effort to meet deadlines (which DC is infamous for missing) they have been hurrying and churning out the last several issues of their entire line up en masse with very little quality control. Everyone is so 'onboard' with the new 52 that they seem to have forgotten about the readers.
I have always preferred DC over Marvel, but lately I find myself reading more and more Marvel because they are at least consistent in their quality and direction. It seems as if the writers and artists pushing for DC's new 52 have their own agenda and if everyone else does not fall in line or see 'their' vision they are proverbially fucked.
If I were a writer for DC and had poured my heart and soul into a series and was then told that I had only a handful of issues to sow up a dozen issue story arc I would be pissed and I would half ass my way to the finish line in anger.
I would rather have a line up of high quality, late comic books than 52 new ones that can only exist by destroying numerous series that have just recently hit their stride story and art-wise.
After reading Green Lantern Corps #63 I was thoroughly peeved. It was just a mishmash of 'perspectives' strewn together that really furthered no plot. It was not apart of something larger or even a one-shot arc akin to the way Emerald Warriors has been implementing since the conclusion of "The War of the Green Lanterns."
In a nutshell Green Lantern Corps #63 is the first Green Lantern comic book that I have been disappointed with and sadly it was the last before 52's new relaunch. And, it is not because of lack of talent...it is because of laziness and a lack of focus on DC's part.
Instead of ending with a bang they went out with a whimper. Hopefully the reboot stuns and amazes, because this comic book fan is now a Green Lantern Corp skeptic.
