Molly Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 Also: Love the idea of Red Guy, as long as he doesn't end up a.) totally feral like all the other RL's besides Atrocious or b.) Dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta say, though... that's a pretty amazing way to go out. I mean, if I could take my pick of ways to die, that'd be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta say, though... that's a pretty amazing way to go out. I mean, if I could take my pick of ways to die, that'd be it. Yeah. Damn. I guess that means Kyle will be a black lantern. Also, a lot of people are going to be mad. But damn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 So waitasec... So let's run down the list: Guy might be a Red Lantern. Sinestro is a Yellow Lantern. John is still a Green Lantern. If the Blue Lanterns were correct earlier, Hal might end up being a Blue Lantern. Carol is a Star Sapphire. Kyle might be a Black Lantern. All we're missing is Orange and Indigo in order for the main characters to be spread evenly across the entire spectrum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 Hal was meant to be the leader of the blue lanterns, but didn't he turn them down. I switched to trade after agent orange where he did that. Oh and anyone reading Blackest Night and Green Lantern 2 questions: Has Larfleeze said the Orange lantern off yet? Also, has the Bizarro Hal Jordan showed up in the Sinestro corps yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dealw as that he would lead the Blue Lanterns but he would never actually become one. Personally I see Sinestro turning Green and John switching to something else, maybe Blue, Indigo or Star Sapphire due to the Fatality connection.

I forgot about the Hal-leading-the-Blues-as-a-Green thing. John would make sense as a Blue lantern, though. I wonder if eventually all the "avatars" of the emotional spectrum (Ion, Parallax, etc.) will merge together like a Megazord. That would be awesome.

dc20willsave Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 Well, I'm officially not in a good mood now. Take a nap, wake up, and find this out. Well, isn't that lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 I have another theory. Sodom Yat just died. Kyle went out protecting the green battery, I'm thinking he might come back as Ion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 I hope so. I'm going to admit, I actually got depressed when I heard that Kyle died. I actually forced someone to drive me to my comic shop and spent the three dollars in quarters to get the issue since I'm broke until tomorrow. I'm still kinda depressed. Kyle was my Lantern growing up. I hated the idea of bringing Hal back and I still haven't warmed back up to him since then. There are two reasons I stuck with Countdown as long I did: Harley and Kyle. Kyle is more than a hero, he was a role-model. Superheroes could be more than reporters, crazy rich people, gods, and military men. They could be authors and artists also. They felt tragedy, they were human. For that matter, Kyle was human and accessible. Hal, Hal was never accessible. Hell, the white hair alone showed how old he was. He was an air force guy, something I would never aspire to. Kyle was a comic book artist which sounds like the coolest job when you're 10. So, yeah, I'm depressed but I'm hopeful Kyle becomes Ion again. I think he's proven he has the stuff to be considered The Greatest Green Lantern of Them All. That all said, I doubt it. Johns already showed that Sodam Yat is the last of the Green Lanterns in Legion of Three Worlds and He's also still Ion in it. I doubt he's going to change his mind after that. I'm slowly losing my thought that Geoff Johns can do no wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc20willsave Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 dc: Kyle is on the cover for the solicits of GLC #44, I don't think he's dead. I'm going to hope until I turn blue but looking at the cover, it looks more like it's a symbolic thing. Still, a hypothetical: So far the only way outside of death to lose a red ring that we've seen is with a blue one. Guy gets one and hopes for the return of Kyle?

dc20willsave Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 (edited) I'm calling it. Guy Gardner is going to become the White Lantern. He's getting his very own red ring in GLC.He used Sinestro's ring for awhile back in the 90's so he's already touched the yellow light. (The yellow is unreadable so never mind on that.)Part of seeking out Sinestro's ring was Guy wanting to be a hero at any costs.He's a green Lantern obviously.He was a special needs teacher and he hired down on their luck heroes at his bar showing great compassion.He definitely loves Ice. So, he really just needs a moment of great hope and I think he has it clinched. Edited November 12, 2009 by dc20willsave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stavros Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Yup, it turns out that Guy Gardner is the most emotionally well-rounded Lantern of all, thus justifying Batman's skepticism about the corps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Has Guy appeared in a single issue of Blackest Night yet? I mean, he's a decent enough character, but it's amazing to me the number of hoops people are jumping through to rationalize why he should be the one to save the day.

Its really just one person around here, and I think we know who that is. I mean, We all like Guy Gardner but only one of us goes tingly at the whiff of a bowl-cut.

Molly Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 You know, I was thinking about this: Who says that the White Lantern has to be one person? I'm thinking it's going to end up being a Gestalt of 7 ring holders, rather than one person holding seven rings. That plays much, much more to the ideas of unity and life than one dude getting all 7 colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 If Blackest Night ends like a Power Rangers episode, I'll be pissed. I still say Sinestro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 I'm not saying that it will be seven people, I'm saying that they'll be united into one entity, representing the full emotional spectrum, with the thoughts, feelings and drives of all seven... Oh, fuck me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
