GL # 23 was great. I just read it. comics were late this month. I really liked it. The art keeps being amazing, really beautiful. I found the beginning with Hal's family, a little bit naiv but overall I found the issue really great, this whole Sinestro Corps arc is great. There are a lot of good ideas here and there. All I hope is that the arc won't finish like Civil War did or the Ultimates. Kind of "we've been so high that we don't even find a way to beat the villains". Sinestro has been excellent throughout the story I hope the end will keep its promises.
I was thinking about something ; with Rebirth few things have been retold and explained, and the fact that Parallax was an entity of fear, I would have thought that actual Kyle-Parallax would have been better in yellow.
I find it strange a green guy in the middle of all those yellow ones, especially when they are explaining the whole utility of the colors spectrum. Anyway good read!

 

[MagicPrime]

I've always found it odd that a lot of the Parallax energy is still green.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, I don't get why Kylellax is shooting green energy everywhere. Technically, with Ion gone and no GL ring, shouldn't the only energy Kyle can generate right now be Parallax's yellow energy?

 

[Miss Webb]

Heh, I seen the preview of GL #24...all I can say is

DAYYYMMM...

It's at the CBR Forums. Gonna be some major crap with Parallax and Hal...t:

And something is going on with Alan. It's not explained at all but read the panel with him and PeeGee.

I think we need new Lantern Color Coding:

Mocha Lanterns
Mint Lanterns
Peach Lanterns
Cream Lanterns

These lanterns will have a "lighter" outlook. One could say almost airy.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Hmm, all I see in the panel is him using his power (which was drawn all flamish again, finally) against a Sinestro Corpsman.

I hope Kylellax kicks Hal's ass again, even though I know he won't.

 

[Assassin]

Yes. And the Black Lanterns are all goths.

We say African American Lanterns here at Super hero hype

The Sinestro ring tried to force itself onto Batman. It chose Batman, and he actually did not use any of it's power, he rejected it.

And Batman struggled with the Green Lantern ring.

No he didnt, Ollie did. Stop arguing jackass, go re read it

No he didnt, Ollie did. Stop arguing jackass, go re read it

Let's see:

1. Batman not knowing how to work it: Check

2. Batman sweating to get it started: Check

3. Batman not knowing how to control it: Check

4. Batman not wanting to put up with his fear: Check

That counts as struggling.

But he was able to make constructs and have no lasting exhaustion afterwards. When Ollie made one arrow he was wiped out. Batman simply took the ring off and handed it back to him.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

So Batman has more willpower than Ollie (not surprising), but he's not skilled with a ring. Simple explanation.

 

[sethcohen]

why does every issue start off with "My name is Hal Jordan"

get a new narrative tool johns... its getting old

 

[yenaled]

My name is Wally West, I'm the fastest man alive.

 

[Fledermaus]

My name is Fledermaus, and I'm quirky.

 

[MagicPrime]

So wait - what are we arguing here. That Batman was just not familiar with the ring, or that Batman can't use a ring?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Arguing Batman can't use a ring would be pretty stupid, given that he has used a ring. But I wasn't arguing anything, I was just giving my view on what you guys were arguing about.

My name is Wally West, I'm the fastest man alive.

Shut up, it's cool when the Flashes do it.

 

[DoomJester]

To anyone who read the latest issue (very good read), what did he mean when he said all he had to do was stay black? I don't know want to spoil anything so I won't go into any detail but I'm sure you will catch it if you read it.

Is that a new attack? Does Mr Fantastic have it? Are black people the strongest in the DCU when we keep it real?

 

[Kitsune]

If thats the case then I vouch for lanterns of every hue and shade. Lets have the HunterGreen Lantern Corps. the Dark Blue and Light Blue Corps. more and more!

And the all merge to form one Giant Lantern...

 

[MagicPrime]

Arguing Batman can't use a ring would be pretty stupid, given that he has used a ring. But I wasn't arguing anything, I was just giving my view on what you guys were arguing about.

Basically all I was saying is that Batman can use a ring, and he didn't react to putting it on any different than pretty much anyone who put the ring on for the first time. And I'm sure if Bruce was given a ring and had time to really learn how to use it -- well it would be interesting to see.

Sorianik Natu was able to use her ring perfectly right when she got it on.

If Batman were CHOSEN to be a Green Lantern, I'd think that he'd have no trouble at all. Same for Green Arrow. But they weren't so of course they would have trouble using one.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

But being chosen doesn't change a person at all. So would that mean Soranik Natu has a stronger will than Batman's?

 

[Varient]

Before the latest Retcon,.. anyone who could put it on could do SOMETHING with the ring.

After the retcon it would appear to require more focus, drive, dedication to maintain a level of concentration to keep your constructs together. So Batman who has a 24/7 kinda concentration should have little trouble using a powr ring.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Yeah, I think that most Green Lanterns have stronger will than Batman.

 

[CLARKY]

Yeah, I agree.
BTW, this preview of GL # 24 is amazing. Good stuff coming!
