SuaveStar Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Is that Parallax Yes. He's meant to come back in issue 50. I'm wondering if that's the Anti-Monitor in the background. I'm thinking Spectre personally. Either that, or Nekron, though the anti-monitor would kick ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking Spectre personally. Either that, or Nekron, though the anti-monitor would kick ass. I've now read all the crises and I still don't think the Moniter is a good villain. He's just so bland in terms of his character. He's a name because of what he is, not who he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I like the idea he is a big psychotic killer who just does it, because it is who he is. But if it's the Spectre, that would explain why Hal is Parralx again.

I just read it and thought, why is he wearing the outfit of his minion. Sinestro, Prime and Cyborg-Superman were heavily featured, but the Anti-moniter was just wallpaper in the background. i just don't get the appeal. Compare him to Luthor, Joker, Darkseid or Deathstroke and he seems bland. Then again, I think Ras Al Ghul is severely overrated, so maybe its just personal taste.

It may have just been the idea of Sinestro getting AM for his group. Which makes me wonder, why if he was the leader was it called the Sinestro Corps and not the Anti-Monitor corps? I agree Darkseid is more awesome as a real villian, but it's nice to have the Anti-Monitor show up every twenty years to try and destroy the world. But I still stand by an Anti-Monitor black lantern.

I am an old school fan who doesn't like the new stuff and I like 'em just fine. I get the second one is sort of a reference to the Denny O'Neil/Neal Adams stuff. I just don't think they look like that good, and won't get me to pick the issue up from the shelf. But that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamvidger Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Green Arrow #30 cover and variant: I don't really care for either. I completely loved the first one at first, but then I paid closer attention and started to realize why people might not like it. For both covers, a couple things pop off too much and though they have a certain two styles and ideas to get people to take these books off a shelf, but those styles and ideas aren't actually working here.

SuaveStar Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Well, I picked up issue 50 of Green Lantern, expecting something special and unexpected to happen, well, I was disappointed. We find out the Spectre is afraid of Parallax, so Hal gathers all four green lantern rings from Guy, John, Kyle and himself, and gets taken over by the spectre again. Also, it was the spectre on the cover I posted a few days ago. Fast read, and didn't feel like $3.99 worth of comic to me, it was alright, but it just felt like a regular comic.

Koete Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Is it a great cover? Definitely. Am I excited that once again the Anti-Monitor is going to be branded with somebody's ring instead of fucking shit up on his own? That the place he's appearing, not to slam the book by any means, makes him look like an afterthought? Not really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I think that GLC has been the most consistent DC book of the past two years and I'll fight anyone who disagrees. If it brings the book prominence then so be it. Anti-Monitor's a pussy anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stavros Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Anti-monitor is your standard bland universal threat, there is nothing more to him. All that's significant is that fact that he shows up whenever big trouble is a-brewin. Pariah is the same, doesn't make him a big deal.

Missy Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Just had this idea: They've made a point to stress that the Black Lanterns are only the bodies of the dead, that their souls are still in Heaven, Hell, or wherever. Well, what if the White Lantern Corps is comprised of the souls of the dead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
