Finally, we're getting somewhere.
The power psychic Caul decides to put on some clothes and invites some of his former fortune-telling cronies from his CIA days to a seance. There he takes advantage of their unassuming nature and he destroys them. Now Caul is a super-charged battery of metaphysical energy and he's ready to take on the Spectre.
On the side of good, thanks to the spiritual guidance of Abin Sur, Hal Jordan's has finally been preparing for this battle as well. But when he renounces the power of the Spectre, he finds that he must battle Caul alone. Once free from the villain's snare, Jordan will discover that he's lost more than just his only chance for redemption.
The action and adventure were better in this issue, mostly because there finally was some to enjoy. But the dialogue was lame and the art was even lamer. Though, I really like these painted covers. This one looks like it was painted by Dave (Sandman) McKean, but it's not. But I liked it anyway.
Thankfully, there is only one more issue left. I don't think I can take much more of this storyline. It's not been one of my favorites in an otherwise superior anthology series.
Rating: 5 out of 10 stars.
