Agent Orange Conclusion
4 pages from Green Lantern #42, the conclusion of the Agent Orange arc.

Hal gets in touch with his greed:

Later Hal finds his hope. What is it?:

The blue ring leaves Hal and goes back to Ganthet's planet. The Guardians make a deal with Larfleeze where he'll leave them alone and they give him directions to Ganthets planet.

	'Don't you dare dent it, it's in mint condition!' I love Larfleeze...and that the orange lantern calls Hal 'Mr. Jordan.' (Reply to this) (Thread)

	the orange lantern calls Hal 'Mr. Jordan.' Which might be an interesting bit of commentary about how Hal wants to be respected (Geoff Johns' idolizing of Hal aside, most characters outside the GLC never really respected him, except for the whole Final Night save-the-world-death) and furthermore, to live up to his memories of his father.

	I'm amused that Hal was too shallow to realize that his biggest hope was shallow and short term. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I used to make cracks about Hal Jordan being a legitimized Zap Brannigan. Your comment is Totally in line with those cracks! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	" your own Guardian " I was expecting " your own Corps ", for some reason. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	icon_uk 2009-06-25 02:11 am UTC (link)
	Nah, he LIKES most of the Corps, being able to boss around the little blue shits would probably be a power fantasy of not just Hal but most Lanterns. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If he was, he wouldn't be having such problems with the blue ring. I think this whole arc is just to prove that there's only one color for Hal, and that color is Green. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's always been hal's biggest strength - and weakness. He's direct, he rarely has any subterfuge, and is pretty much a blockhead. I mean, when this guy goes off to sulk, he creates an Emerald City in orbit, and turns himself into the "King who sleeps" archetype (Kingdom Come). What better proof. And yes, he does make the perfect Green lantern in that sense. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	khaosworks 2009-06-25 12:34 am UTC (link)
	That was Alan Scott in Kingdom Come, though, not Hal. But otherwise, I agree. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pyrotwilight 2009-06-25 12:57 am UTC (link)
	I said that as well. Of course that means he only had the power of 78.39 Green Lanterns at the time.... but I suppose if it said 360,000% we would've HOLY FUCKED too much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So, what WAS the Orange Lantern oath, which the the creators said was their favourite of them all. Was it just "Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine!" a la the seagulls in "Finding Nemo"? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Oh yeah. I'd love to get a copy of that panel with Larfleeze holding his battery (the one with the power level reading), but minus the text. That is such an awesome picture. (Reply to this)

I'm scared to buy the book now because I totally love every one of these pages. The characterization seems dead on (Hal's true hope show's he's as deep as a street puddle, the lantern itself is psychotic, John isn't a complete moron), the art is good, and for some reason, I have the curiousity orb from Portal voicing the Orange lantern. And the orb even is *drumroll* orange!

If they really go to Ganthet's planet and put the beat down I will be a sad panda.
