Plastic Rings, Changing GL status quo and Sinestro fan-wank isn't good enough for you? :p

I proposed to my fiancee with the green lantern ring. Thank you, Geoff Johns. The week after I had to buy a 'real' one though- engagement ring,that is, not a real green lantern ring (which wouldve been way cooler!)
 
So since this series has become Intelligent Design: The Comic, there's been some really interesting things that the internet has been noticing, both on this forum and others. I mean Johns basically just put the whole Book of Genesis in spectranimal form.

Orange snake is obviously the serpent from the garden.

Redbull is evidently connected to Cain and Abel so...Abel's lamb? Representative of?

Bluebird apparently symbolizes the dove that flew out from Noah's Ark. Check out the thunderstormin' going on in that background.

Still no idea on Compassion Octopus and Sexual Harassment Beetle, though.
 
Out of the first life, Ion was born when the first bacteria willed itself to move.

After time, they became other species and made it to shore, once there fear was born - fear of other stronger things killing weaker and thus Parallax was born.

Then comes man, and with man, sex + love + babies. And with that, Predator was created.

From man comes the need to engorge on things not needed (the devil as a serpent tricking Eve), and as such gluttony / greed is born. Or mr snake faces, the orange serpent.

With greed comes jealousy, and with jealousy came the first murder. Rage.

And with murder, sin, and darkness comes the flood. Noahs arc. And hope for all beings. And so the phoenix of Hope was born.

And finally, Jesus died for our sins, for eternal compassion on our souls. He's an octopus thing now.

That better?
 
Nice recent commission done by Darryl Banks

Reading this post reminds me why Geoff Johns writing always leaves me with the all but irresistible urge to beat my head against something heavy until the pain goes away.

Good work Philly! I actually just bought the rock for Miss Womp on Tuesday. Probably pop the Q over Easter. Cheers mate!
 
I plan on getting GL wedding bands made whenever I tie the knot. I'm sure if I throw enough money at a jeweler or a metal-worker, they can make it happen.
 
Total Nerd way to get married but hell if it works.
 
True. Now that I have the damn thing, I feel like proposing all the time. Almost did it this morning when I was only in boxers and she was cooking waffles.
 
yeah i can say that sounds like a good idea indeed, next time womp.
 
I want to do it when we are back in STL with our families. So probably next weekend for Easter. Plus. next friday is April 1st, so I can do the GL ring for April Fool's Day.

Edit: Thursday, not Friday.

That sounds very sweet. All the best to you and you're significant other. Here's hoping the two of you will be together for many years to come, through brightest day and blackest night.
 
Hahahaha, thanks dood. I should totally work a portion of the GL oath into my vows. I wonder if the g/f would even notice? :hehe:

Is she a comics fan as well?

You could exchange the "In sickness and in health" part for the Brightest Day/Blackest Night portion of the Oath. That would be quite a nice touch:yay:

I did it after Sunday pancakes, only figured I do it a few minutes before hand (had planned to do it in the near future anyway). Knew I had the GL ring in the other room, so just want for it. Dunno if I could pull off planning something, she'd know something was up.

Good luck for whenever you decide to do it!

She was, but even when she did read 'em, she didn't read any DC titles.
 
Did you drive her away by insisting stuff like Hulk and Millar's comics are good? Be honest now.
