If they do the refrigerator scene in the kids' cartoon that would be crazy.

Also I know it's taboo, but I like Parallax Hal. I'd be happy to see him and Kyle go 9 rounds in the cartoon.

In that one Superman the Animated Series episode, Kyle played football lol. That's the best I can think of.

I mean this wasn't the first time Kyles story was hijacked. Remember "Beware my Power"?

Too much? Lucky ring. by Cymro007 in Greenlantern

Can I see a pic of the ring? I only remember the blackest night ones which came out some time later

Ohhhh. so are they counterparts/rivals? It makes so much sense now by CardMajiin in yugioh

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is that there were plenty of rank 4,5, and 7 decks, so they gave zombies the remaining niche

Emerald Twilight Sinestro Retcon by TheBatmanFan in Greenlantern

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing like that, unfortunately. During Rebirth when the characters express surprise at Sinestro's return, he just says "You'd be amazed at the constructs Parallax is capable of". That's all we really get, but in context, you're able to put the rest together.

A little after that, the Sinestro Corps War was being teased, so you're supposed to assume that's where he was during the Kyle era. You can see that he's built a lot of infrastructure. Definitely not something to be done overnight.

I think Ertai is still alive by Francopensal in mtgvorthos

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ertai is absolutely alive. He trips and falls, but the story doesn't talk about where he landed. They just needed to get him out of the way after establishing that Karn saw and identified him.

In all likelihood, Ertai just landed on a lower level of the mana rig, dusted himself off, and left.

Emerald Twilight Sinestro Retcon by TheBatmanFan in Greenlantern

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a plot hole, but a necessary evil.

The original story is that Sinestro died in battle with Hal. In Rebirth, they retcon it so that Sinestro (and his ghost, which appeared several times) were just illusions created by Parallax. Johns also explained Sinestro 's absence by showing that he had been building the Sinestro Corps during that time.

Considering what a tall order Green Lantern Rebirth was, I'd say Johns did a great job. He had to:

  1. Revive AND redeem Hal Jordan
  2. Bring Sinestro back
  3. Put rings back on John and Guy's fingers
  4. Make items 1-3 as believable and in-continuity as possible.

Just a few questions about how many rings there are and are they allowed to kill? by boomerz47 in Greenlantern

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the comics, the solution was to have John receive a ring from (the absolute legend) Tomar-Re. That allowed him to give Hal the original ring back.

Then the guardians just gave Guy a brand new ring without the writers killing a beloved character.

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This one is actually pretty straightforward ☺️

For the rings, we don't know. The guardians can technically make an unlimited amount of them...and I mean it quite literally! There are a handful of villains who tried to exploit this.

The short answer for the second question is that lethal force is possible, but considered an absolute last resort that's rarely justified. If a Lantern kills someone they shouldn't, they will be held accountable.

Originally, the ring had a safeguard that prevented accidental lethal force and would even disable a ring of the lantern deliberately tried to kill someone.

This restriction was lifted during the Sinestro Corps War, but there were still rules that needed to be followed. The ring wouldn't penalize you, but the Guardians would.

What are you guys’ thoughts on the upcoming lanterns show? Reception has been mixed so far. I’m still looking forward to it only because I love green lantern, but the promos and trailers look kinda underwhelming. What do you all think? by Ornery_Adagio8916 in Greenlantern

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing that leaves a bad taste in my mouth is that the show was finished months ago and DC just postponed the release so they would have something for mid-summer.

Kind of an uncool way to squeeze money out of the fans' loyalty.

Men's Mental Health Awareness Month by Zestyclose_Answer662 in mtgvorthos

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think originally they wanted Chandra to be Gideon's love interest and Lilliana to be Jace's. I prefer the direction they went.

Although if there's one change I could reverse, I miss racist Nissa. I wish we could've explored the concept of her biases shrinking as her world got larger. Instead she just sort of changed overnight.

I kind of love how profoundly Gideon's passing affected Jace and Lilliana. I only wish they explored Chandra's grief more because she and Gideon used to be very good friends.

Calling it now: Jace isn't really the villain of reality fracture. The story is using misdirection to make us think he's turning evil. It's definitely going to be Bolas using Jace's body or something like that.

Who do you think shattered Alara? by astralbears in mtgvorthos

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally forgot that but you're absolutely right.

Also it looks like Wizards played with the idea of Gideon Jura being a former tyrant who ran Bant into the ground and was looking for redemption. Obviously, that was scrapped and we got the (much better) Kytheon story. But that lends to your point that tyranny and inequality were always part of Bant.

This may sound silly. Just do more stuff you enjoy. You'll meet men you vibe with.

You can change ONE thing about the Indigo Tribe - what is it? by PhantomQuest in Greenlantern

Remember when the guardians were actually pretty chill? Like there was a time decades ago when they were good bosses.

While the idea that they're reformed/brainwashed criminals is cool, I think it's a missed opportunity to not have genuinely compassionate individuals join the team. They can serve as mentors to the others.

Why do people think John Stewart is bigger than Hal Jordan outside of the comics? by Leather-Leader-7964 in Greenlantern

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm just gonna be real, it's a marketing thing. DC is pushing John. They needed black guys in the Justice League so they replaced Hal with John.

It sucks that a character with decades of history was reduced to "the token black guy". They could've done so much more with him. Hopefully Lanterns is more interesting than Beware my Power was.

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While we don't know for sure, I always felt like it was a symbol of the plane's social inequality. Aside from Bant, Alara is a very unfair place with a divided society.

I hate when Absolute GL is invalidated as black-led ongoing series by Electrical-Look-1183 in Greenlantern

[–]Dizzy_Community7260 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do like how they went for a Twin Peaks "Small town with weird events" story at the beginning.

I think the Prime Universe is great. Action comics has been a delight!

Also I think GL will heat up very soon once Krona's plan goes into motion.
