The book serves as a continuation from the previous series of ''Franchise/GreenLantern'', ''Sinestro'', and the Green Lantern Corps books ''Lost Army'' and ''Edge of Oblivion''. Despite the [[SpotlightStealingSquad name]], it features a huge cast of characters, though mainly focused around the primary Earth Lanterns. The series is published concurrently with ComicBook/GreenLanterns, which focuses on the Earth adventures of Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz.

--> '''Soranik:''' You forget that I'm a Natu by name, but a Sinestro by blood. Fear is the family gift. I feel it throbbing inside you. The fear that made you keep your secret. Fear that I wouldn't want to be with you. Fear that I'd be the love you let slip away. You fear a wounded heart! You can't hide from your fear, ''alley rat''.
