	FINALLY it's explained, sort of, where all these energies originated. Now what I want to know is who built some of the batteries. Like the orange one. (Reply to this)

	Truly, Geoff Johns writes like a story conference. Sometimes he'll have good ideas for character motivation and suchlike...but rather than have characters talking to each other like people and revealing their personality through their actions, they just stand there and exposit motivations at one another.

	It says a lot about the current Dr Light that Hal doesn't mention her after specifically requesting light-wielding heroes. He probably thought of her, then thought "Nahh...too obnoxious". (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Too bad that they didn't explain why the Sapphires had to turn in their gems for rings. They already did, in Green Lantern #20. The gems possess too much power over the host. The Rings are more manageable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wouldn't it be great if it was Dove? Although I don't think the white light is going to be contained or managed by a ring. It's more primal than that. It's probably, like Indigo said, going to take a member of every Corps to put their lights together and OH SHIT THIS IS RAINBOW FUCKING BRITE. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You have personal connections to the most powerful members of the five remaining corps." Violet - Carol Ferris Blue - Ganthet Yellow - Sinestro/Parallax Red - ??? Orange - ... I don't remember Hal and Larfleeze doing much connecting while he had the Orange lantern. Also, has Hal gone through a Violet ring phase yet? (Reply to this) (Thread)

Thank you, Barry, for your services in bringing to light and mediating Hal's incredible self-centered douchebaggery. Maybe you do have something to offer the DCU alive, after all.

...That aside, I have the strangest feeling I've seen this plot before. Possibly in Sailor Moon. And frankly, it would be worth the inevitable Hal-saves-the-world-because-it's-all-about-him if he ended up in a pretty pretty princess dress wielding the combined power of the spectrum against the forces of darkness. Mostly because I am engaged in a constant war against Hal's dignity.

	My new theory: we get a scenario involving a member from each lantern core essentially resulting in "WHEN YOUR POWERS COMBINE, I AM THE WHITE LANTERN!" no longer Hal or Dove saves the day...so I'm guessing Hal, sinestro, atrocious, Larfleeze, Saint Walker, Carol Ferris, and this one (Reply to this)

On the one hand I like the "rings are wearing the dead" bit because I'm sick of good guys being controlled. On the other hand it hurts the non-resurrection of Don Hall and means that we're not likely to see any Black Lanterns turned good.

In GLC Guy seemed to successfully destroy the fly Black Lantern. At least we didn't see it get put back together. I wonder if that's cause he was channeling rage with his will powered weapon?

And I'm still hoping that blue ring that's flying around finds Kyle.
