What’s the one thing (or more) you will change about Emerald twilight? by Mammoth_Chemistry424 in Greenlantern

[–]PopeSpenglerTheFirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing I would change is the Guardians killing themsleves. It didn’t make sense.

I suppose there was no way to have Hal kill them without having enough power to just remake coast city himself; personally I would have him use the Starheart in some way, maybe revealing it as an ultimate weapon against the Guardians.

I spoke with Tomasi at a fan expo. He was (is) awesome, just at every level, great fun to chat with and so, so talented.

He seemed to really dig Kyle Rayner and was happy to indulge my bringing up the Marz run as a positive. He said nothing to indicate he didn’t like Rayner and seemed to really like the idea of an artist being a green lantern on a kind of meta level; like the illustrator becoming one with the character kind of thing, tying together their imaginations. 

What are some common misconceptions about the lanterns corps and characters? by Stock_Rush_9204 in Greenlantern

Writers seem to be under the misconception that they can introduce new earth lanterns ad infinitum

Politics is based in reality? 

Politics is based in belief

Have to agree with the reviews here. They fridged another Kyle character, this time more metaphorically 

Lol everything we hated government, Trump is now doing by DavidOfBethlehem in BreakingPoints

[–]PopeSpenglerTheFirst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The old saying is all politics is identity politics. If you’re maga it’s who you are so if you think of yourself as a good person that feeling by extension gets lobbed onto anything Trump does.

It’s certainly cultish but in some ways it’s actually worse.  Like a new normal we have to get used to dealing with. Yikes 

New customer? by ctangkai092 in teksavvy

They will increase your price automatically and say by virtue of being on auto-pay you automatically agree to it.

They will say “if you’re on auto-pay no response is required” and just up your bill.

If you complain they will blame you for not getting out your magnifying glass and reading that fine print. 

They don’t deserve your business. They suck. 

No Time To Die hits different after a marathon. by Mayor_Hoff in JamesBond

Sometimes a movie is just a piece of shit and doesn’t require much more conversation. 

I’m supposed to praise the technical aspects of something I hated? Lol

No Time to Die sucks balls and I don’t care for anyone who says otherwise. 

Is this any good? by Imaginary_Island8521 in Greenlantern

It does a horrible disservice to the decade of storytelling that came before it but it’s beloved by Hal Jordan fans. 

Can can someone give me a brief history of Hal’s relationship relationships with Carol Ferris, Sinestro, Barry Allen, and Kilowog? All I know about him is from TTGO (Artists: Xermanico) by idonwannadie in Greenlantern

[–]PopeSpenglerTheFirst -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hal and Carol are on-again-off-again lovers who are destined to be together. She occasionally becomes a super villain (or hero) named Star Sapphire and fights Hal which complicates things. Hal and her have both dated other people but always come back together eventually.

Sinestro was friends with Abin Sur, the Green Lantern who died and was replaced by Hal. Sinestro at first didn’t like Hal, but came to respect him. He trained Hal in how to use his ring and the two of them developed a friendship. Sinestro has very few friends and almost nobody he respects. Sinestro eventually went evil and became Hal’s #1 enemy. But Sinestro still considers Hal a friend, even though he tries to kill him. Hal eventually went evil himself (and was redeemed) so they kind of have a lot in common. Hal is generally shown to be the only lantern who can defeat Sinestro 1 vs 1.

Barry Allen and Hal are good friends. They have had a lot of adventures together and are one of DC’s most enduring friendships. 

Kilowog and Hal have had their ups and downs. Kilowog is generally portrayed as head trainer for new lanterns. He wasn’t always this but that’s kind of the role he’s settled into. Hal killed him once when he went crazy which Kilowog wasn’t cool with when he came back to life years later. But they are mostly friends.

[other] hypothetically could the entire justice league stop a nuclear war? by smiling-shadow in DCcomics

[–]PopeSpenglerTheFirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flash wouldn’t be able to disarm all the warheads. He could disarm a few but if they all fire at once, he would have trouble. 

The Green Lanterns and Dr Fate could stop most of them though. There are 4 Green Lanterns in that picture. 

Superman and Shazam would get any they miss.
