Guy was still doing the 'Warrior' thing right up until Rebirth, where the powers/Parallax nearly killed him and he took up a ring again.

Medical Ethics? Did you catch what they did to the Alpha Lanterns? I wouldn't want any cybernetics from the guardians.

Anyhow this looks most likely something Natu and the small group decided on. In some older previous GLC issues, someone loses an arm, and the best Natu could do was give them a construct arm that only worked in range of the central power battery, and the dude was just thrilled to still be able to contribute. Keep this in mind they are a military group in the middle of a war.

That was in the after-math of the Sinestro Corps. War and yeah, it was kind of wierd and out of place, but a little bit fitting for what the Corps. were going through at the time.

Describe a feminazi makeover. I'm curious.

Yeah, I really cringed when I read that and I can't wait to hear Ryebed's explanation.

Kyle, blah, blah, blah, everything in Morrison's JLA run featuring him, blah, blah, blah.

But seriously, that 'containing a supernova' trick and making a big Calvin knock-off who picked up jets off an aircraft carrier and threw them like paper planes were pretty solid.

The Calvin thing happened in the last ever arc of that series (Green Lantern volume 3, before it was rebooted with GL Rebirth) when he was fighting John Stewart I believe, written by Ron Marz.

I thought he was fighting Fatality or someone?

I'm pretty sure Hal Jordan's the one who's going to lose his ring, just by process of elimination.

Drunk Driving accident again, he get's his ring license revoked. Come on, who'll take the odds on this?

Got to get paid, son.

Its a Crisis on Infinite Earths all over again. If they are going to do a reboot they need to start from scratch, doing it so some stuff is in continuity while others is not is how we got into this mess in the first place.


This is the smart way to do it, yes, but there are some stories that would wipe out which just wouldn't be worth losing. The wierd half-way they're doing things really sucks, and is kind of needlessly convoluted even in and of itself, but it'll live or die on how easily people are able to get into it once the stories start.

Hal Jordan is Han Solo. Of course he's going to come across as a jerk.

Except Han Solo is charming and witty and Hal is just kind of an rear end in a top hat at all times.

Holy poo poo, there needs to be a Bunk and McNulty alternate dimension Green Lantern comic.

Hal Jordan is pretty much McNulty and John Stewart is a black man. Which is generally close enough for most comic fans to make similar comparisons.

Apparently the Green Lantern in the FCBD issue has a tatoo on his arm with Arabic writing that translates to "courage".

Hal Jordan has a tattoo that he tells everyone who'll listen is Inuit for 'strength'.

Well, that is loving spot-on casting for Sinestro.

Really? Much love for Ron, but that sounds like a loving terrible fit.
