This movie had the Paralax nonsense and kills Hal to have John as their main Green Lantern

What do we think is going to happen in Lanterns? Hal gets possessed by the Paralax nonsense and kills Hal to have John as their main green lantern

Look we can have John Stewart as our main lantern i understand why he’s awesome. But we shouldn’t be killing off the most known Green Lantern for the other guy

thank your for coming to my short Ted Talk

Listen up, Poozers, it's Kilowog's turn!

You get to make one, and ONLY one, change about Kilowog - what is that change? It can be anything - powers, costume, personality, history retcon, whatever, and can be an in-universe change or something with how the character is used by DC as a publisher. Only caveat is "don't be a dick" - for instance, no killing off, no wishing they didn't exist, etc.

Mine might be a bit of a controversial one because he has become iconic as the Corps' "drill sergeant", but that's always felt a bit contrived to me - the big, scary-looking tough guy is big, scary, and tough. Been there, seen that. Kilowog's original portrayal as a bit of a peacenik, a socialist-minded engineer, allllmost a pacifist even was far more interesting, and a subversion of how he looks, so I'd like to see that perspective brought back for him.

What ONE thing would you change about Kilowog?

Special shout out to u/mintgiver for the Heroclix figures. It took a while to cross the Atlantic, but they arrived safely! These get added to the collection.

I'd say "bring on the bad guys!" but that's the other publisher! Let's talk about Thaal Sinestro, arguably the biggest of big bads to the Green Lantern Corps.

You get to make one, and ONLY one, change about Sinestro - what is that change? It can be anything - powers, costume, personality, history retcon, whatever, and can be an in-universe change or something with how the character is used by DC as a publisher. Only caveat is "don't be a dick" - for instance, no killing off, no wishing they didn't exist, etc.

For me, I'd keep him far, far away from any Corps, even the Yellow Lanterns (which can, and to a degree have, been somewhat redeemed and shown to be able to use fear for positive purposes). Sinestro's real power is his hypocrisy and sense of superiority - his view that only he knows best. Sometimes that elevates him to being the "greatest Green Lantern" or to creating the Yellow Lantern Corps, but I think it's intrinsic to him that his hubris always tears him down. He should forever be the outsider, raging that his way is the only way, even as everyone around him ultimately sees through his control schemes and leaves him behind. Or, TLDR, he should never have a hint of redemption, and damn sure shouldn't be accepted back into the GLC specifically!

In short it's a >! Mauve Lantern, which happens when a person's glee overwhelms a Green Lantern rings willpower !<

Guy tried to confess his love for Hal. All for Sinestro to interrupt & Hal to choose Thaal instead.

Seems like an intentional design choice on the suit.

Big shoulders are pretty much a unifying design of Hal Parrallax

Maybe he will slowly become the big bad?

Not sure how likely but this is fun theory time

The newest, and arguably most unique, Green Lantern from Earth, the hero of the City Enduring in the Far Sector, let's talk about Sojourner 'Jo' Mullein!

You get to make one, and ONLY one, change about Jo Mullein - what is that change? It can be anything - powers, costume, personality, history retcon, whatever, and can be an in-universe change or something with how the character is used by DC as a publisher. Only caveat is "don't be a dick" - for instance, no killing off, no wishing they didn't exist, etc.

For me, I think more needs to be made of how, and why, her ring is different to the rest of the Corps' - constantly recharging from ambient energy, not directly needing a battery, and explore what different powers and, perhaps, responsibilities, she has or can develop as a result. Jo seems to work best as a bit of an outsider, an auxiliary to the GLC, and I'd love to see more made of that unique standing.

Whether you are excited for the show or not, I want to know how ya'll feel about the stuff we got.

And yes, I know that it's just two teasers, but I find it fun to speculate with scraps of info until the next trailer!

I'd also like to see what you think might or might not be in store for Hal in the future DCU

It just seems too obvious to the point where almost everyone is pointing it out. Even from the first teaser I feel like people already knew. Hell even when they cast Kyle a lot of people already started speculating about it.
