sold 122,221 copies. The subsequent issues sold 106,523, 108,077, 115,006, and 114,354 copies, respectively. The final issue was ranked #8 in sales, and the #4 selling DC book for that month. Tony Isabella, reviewing the series in Comics Buyer's Guide #1616 (May 2006), gave it five out of five "Tonys", praising the story's characterization, the book's art, and opining that the explanation of the Parallax Fear Anomaly was "one of the single most brilliant concepts" he had ever seen in a Green Lantern comic book. ShakingThrough.net complimented the story's "many rewarding moments", also naming the Parallax Fear Anomaly. Long time Green Lantern fan and author Jim Smith reviewed several issues in the Shiny Shelf web magazine and opined that the series "demonstrates, in every panel, the futility of endless Silver Age retro [and] is, in a quite meaningful sense, the very epicenter of all that is wrong with contemporary comic books". Sean Ferrell of numbmonkey.com called the story "strong", though opining that it had some flaws, including Van Sciver's art. The success of Green Lantern: Rebirth led to popular acclaim for the team of Geoff Johns and Ethan Van Sciver, and allowed them to revisit the concept for another classic DC character in 2009's The Flash: Rebirth. Collected editions The miniseries was collected into a single volume in November 2005 as a hardcover () and as a trade paperback in April 2006 ().
