Writer: Van Jensen / Art: Bernard Chang & Moritat In the Second part of Sinestro Corps War we see… huh? oh that’s right this story is called “Uprising”. My fault. It just wants to be Sinestro Corps War sooooo badly. John Stewart leads the corps to Daxam with Sodam Yat in order to warn the Daxamites of the Durlans. The Daxamites are still as xenophobic as ever but Sodam’s father seems to be more caring. Until things start to go awry and the corps find out they are too little too late.
