Green Lantern # 24 Spoilers

A couple of Major spoilers from this week's Green Lantern # 24 written by Robert Venditti with art by Billy Tan.

First off LIGHTS OUT officially begins and it's the first encounter between Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps against the ginormous Relic.

In true Galactus fashion, Relic releases his 'energy ticks' that proceeds to suck every Green energy in Oa.

Which sucks out the power from all the rings in Oa as well as the power batteries in Oa's vault...



... and when everything was consumed, Relic's ticks went straight for the Central Battery



The drain results in the explosion of the power battery...

Which doesn't seem so bad until Salaak reveals that the central battery was connected to Oa's core. An explosion like this will cause a chain reaction to the core...



That's how you officially start LIGHTS OUT in GREEN LANTERN.

GREEN LANTERN: NEW GUARDIANS # 23 Spoilers - More Death

More deaths are happening in space in the latest issue of Green Lantern: New Guardians # 23 by Justin Jordan, Brad Walker and Andrew Hennessy. 

Kyle tries to face off against RELIC but the big-ass baddie simply sways him away like a fly on a taco. Seeing how insignificant he is, Kyle feels desperation and tries to take off with everybody including the Blue Lantern Corps (under the control of Brother Warth, as Saint Walker's been knocked out a bit).





And they do a sacrifice play with the Giraffe Blue Lantern. Just when I've grown fond of the idea of a giraffe for the BLC.



And there's a new mystery here. The fact that the blue light can actually supercharge energies outside of the Green Lantern corps. Pretty impressive and lets hope Justin Jordan explores that bit once we're clear of this whole Relic debacle.



Oh god! That's just horrible. The BLC guys are superchargers, they can't hurt other people and are the most optimistic guys and gals in the DCU. And to see them die like this...

Green Lantern # 12 - What are the Guardian's Plans for the GLC

The Guardians are slowly revealing their hand in this preview for Green Lantern # 12 which comes out this week. It's written by Geoff Johns with art by Renato Guedes.

Poor Hal.

The Toycon 2012 Cosplay Hotties and Cuties

Toycon 2012 might have ended already but it brought about a lot of great photos and connected cosplayers with photographers and fans. Here are some of the hotties that you may or may not have missed during the three day event.

BTW I judged the group cosplay competition for Day 3 which was as fun as can be.

Is DC Screwing Around with The Green Lantern Franchise?

Is it just me or is DC Comics screwing most if not all that is hallowed in their Green Lantern franchise/brand?

Methinks that the shit hit the fan for Green Lantern after that awesome flop GL movie starring Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively.

Would have made more sense if the story wasn't so horrible.

Then writer Geoff Johns decides to go and do some retcons and at the same time make changes on the mythos and the whole status quo with War of the Green Lanterns.
