The Indigo Ring—The Ultimate Criminal Rehabilitation Tool?
Green Lantern #9 finally revealed most of the truth about the Indigo Tribe and the compassionate tools they wield.
May Day! May Day! — Part Three

The Dark line of titles give a more supernatural feel to the New DC 52 within a super hero universe.
