Green Lantern: DCnU-style
Posts
But I really think we're watching a cool evolutionary process with this book. I could see the RLC becoming some sort of "Batman Corps of the Universe."
Ffff-
Oh well, at least some tidbits are bound to be revealed in #8.
It's funny, but I always felt that the Sinestro Corps had the potential to be this, especially in light of Sinestro's recent changes. Which other hero uses fear to instill order better than Batman? Hell, he almost got a ring once - all Sinestro has to do is tweak the criteria for finding members a bit.
Johns kind of sucks at doing press. I kind of understand now why he rarely does any.
Any kind. After GL was released he basically stopped talking about it everywhere. Sometimes they talk, but yeah I'm not surprised he's kept silent about it.

I'm pretty sure it's a painful subject. If I was him, I'd be in no rush to bring it up anytime soon. Maybe in another eight years when there's enough distance, and enough other big DC movies out, it can be discussed more openly.
I kind of wish Razer would be brought over to the DCnU
It has grown on me. Although the latest ep had its ups and downs.
Their awesome backstories are messed up - boo!
Razer is a good character too - I kinda wish they'd brought him into the Red Lantern book rather than giving us this human guy who hasn't really done anything yet.
And that says a lot, because he's my favorite Lantern that isn't Green or Yellow.
The series takes that and adds a level of capable kick-assery to it.
The Indigo Tribe's homeworld is awesomely creepy, though.
It's not been revealed yet, but his appearance in the cartoon means the one from the comics doesn't fully apply.
In the animated series, Walker shows up on Mogo but not as a blue lantern. So either his species is now a space-faring one, or he's already a blue lantern and hiding it. Which would be weird considering Ganthet and Sayd are still Guardians.
His past hasn't been explored yet, so hopefully it still retains the important elements of his pilgrimage and the deaths of his family.
The only weird thing was the flashback that depicted Kyle and Guy fighting Mongul but without any of the others that were with them and with the addition of John, who wasn't there. It makes me kind of worried that they seem to have gone out of their way to not depict Soranik Natu in the new universe.
Better Bleez design too.
Also, it does sound more and more like Kyle's origin has changed. I bet the 0 issue WILL be his new origin.
What from that issue gives you the impression that Kyle's origin has changed?
They'll be redeemed eventually. Maybe Parallax's cousins were possessing them for a few years. It worked for Hal Jordan. 8-)
Maybe not as much changed as expanded. They made some comments that the Guardians don't seem to have any control over his ring or powers, which still work fine even though he has been dismissed from the corps. I think this series is going to start heading more and more in a direction where Kyle is incredibly special because he was the torchbearer, and I think it's pretty likely that it will take us back there from time to time and explain why and when some of these things happened.
Love that Hal has to use constructs to travel right now
edit: Just noticed Manhke's army of inkers are back.
Awww man, Johns
Looking forwards to next ish so hard. Finally. Finally get to learn the fucking Indigo Tribe's deal already!
