So Lobo can regenerate from a drop of his blood, which can lead to a bunch of Lobo clones to be spawned from his blood.
What happens to those extra clones? Are there multiple Lobos running around then? Does he reabsorb them? Do the Lobos kill each other off until there’s one Lobo again?
How does this work canonically?
I saw this video from @the.roanoke.raven on Instagram that was really special and wanted to share, for anyone who needs to hear it.
Hey all - I’ve owned or read almost every major GL story thru 2018. I love show and have a few thoughts.
- Lanterns is an HBO prestige show first, and a DCU show 2nd. It’s clear watching the show, reading the interviews and listening to official podcast the show’s format and direction is as an HBO prestige drama. Most traditional comic book tropes won’t likely happen and spectacle will be 2nd to story. I’d also expect multiple seasons (2-4). The storyline also will be original and not draw directly from any specific storyline.
- Hal is dead and will stay dead. Similar to other HBO prestige format shows, Hal’s death will remain for at least the rest of the season, but probably indefinitely. Hal will still appear in the past, as a ring construct, and an alien imposter. The shows tension of 1 ring for 2 guys will continue in the past and not be resolved until at least episode 5.
- The Story. Looking at the story elements, it will still be an original story, but I think elements are coming from the GL origin story. NOT Emerald Dawn, but GL Secret Origins. I believe the mystery will reveal Abin Sur died after starting to uncover the sins of the Guardians. The villains will be the Five Inversions (led by Atrocious), the lone survivors of the Manhunter massacre. Rather than Ysmault, I think the Lanterns Five Inversions fled to Earth. Manhunters will be involved but won’t be the true villains, the true villains will be revealed to be the Guardians and the cover-up. The loyal duty driven John Stewart is sought out by the Guardians as they trust ring selected GLS less, as they (Abin Sur, Sinestro and Hal) have uncovered more of the secrecy of the Guardians failure rather than “doing their job.” Waylon Sanders and others are Manhunters coming to Earth to finish the job. Zoe Macon, Anton and others will be the hunted Five Inversions.
This Five Inversions start builds the structure to allow for a continued unfolding mystery and conspiracy but opens up a path to Sinestro Corp all the way to the Blackest Night.

What happened to Ferris, Sloane and Cameron over the past 40 years?
Post your best fan theory, guess or wishes for the characters!
A lovely boutique in South Jersey, The Happy Place has gourmet ring donuts. I had the Fruit Tart, Banana Cream and Boston Cream and all were amazing. There was also a PBJ that was amazing. Although ring donuts, there were a variety of fillings and topping. It’s a little off the beaten path but worth the trip.
Has anyone been there? What would you recommend?
Check it out if you’re ever in South Jersey!
I think most of us are familiar with Kevin Smith's tale about being hired to write a Superman film that never materialized and the insanity of working with producer Jon Peters. If you're not familiar with that story, please do yourself a favor and look it up on YouTube.

I sampled a few and in direct comparison Ruby Slipper is just the better beignet. They’re crisp on the outside but just enough doughiness inside with the great and generous coating of powder sugar. The seasonal selection makes a flavorful break from the routine fair …
I stopped at Cathy’s 14th St Bakery, a Garden State treasure. I couldn’t get a good shot of the racks and shelves, bc they’re almost always empty. Demand is high and the line is down the block, but damn it’s worth it. The Cream-filled donuts are the easy stand out winners, but there are great rotation of seasonal and traditional regular rings and filled as well.
Who else has been to Cathy’s? What other OCNJ donuts would you recommend?

I found myself in Lancaster PA, and apparently it’s a destination for donuts. It has a Federal Chicken and Donuts and a Beiler Donuts within BLOCKS of each other, two of the nations leading donut brands. There are also dozens of Amish bakery stands at the Central Market and throughout the local area! It’s a must try for any baking or donut enthusiasts!
Federal donuts offers their amazing cake donuts, while Beiler offers a yeasty flavor bomb that I can’t actually put into words but simply everyone in a group thought they were the best donuts they ever had ….
Has anyone been to Lancaster and can verify?
Everyone gets TWO Team-up! They brought back some classics, created new ones and give new mechanics to many!
There are too many to list but I attached a video for reference for anyone who missed dev vision.

It seems Season 9 might introduce the Horsemen of Apocalypse with Jubilee as a Horseman of Apocalypse. I think whoever ends up becoming a Horseman should be in a Team-up Jubilee and get a Horseman of Apocalypse ability.
List the character, which Horseman and their ability might be.
Here are my guesses…
- Jubilee - Pestilence - her fireworks chain damage to nearby enemies.
- Magik - Famine - her stepping discs will produce minions with livesteal.
- Wolverine - War - he gains a high damage katana.
- Gambit - Death - for each final hit Gambit can resurrect a fellow Horseman
I’m curious everyone’s knowledge on who you can or can’t grab. Here’s my list of known grabs ….
- regular flyers: Human Torch, Iron Man, Storm, Ultron
- in air: Star Lord jet boots, Spider-Man swinging
- Ulting - Star Lord, Wanda
I think you can grab
- Venom swinging, Strange levitating, Rogue flying, Warlock flying
I’m unsure about
- Angela!
- Leaping Cap, Thing and Widow, Hulk
- Diving/Leaping Black Cat/Panther, Blade, Rocket
- Ulting Magneto
What are your thoughts?!? I’d love to a full confirmed list.
- anyone who is 5 meter or more in the air. That’s any flyer, jumper, wall crawler, and positioned high (eg on a Groot wall).
- You can’t grab CC immune characters in air: Ulting Magneto, Thing
- Dash/grab movements can’t be grabbed and will result in a stun for both: Angela dash, Hulk grab, Bucky dash, Thor dash, Rogue grab/dash, Wolverine grab.
- Easiest: Human Torch, Iron Man, Storm, Strange, Ultron
Most satisfying: Cap leap, Spider-Man swing
