Things You Don't See In Green Lantern Anymore

You see, he's hispanic, and has one massive eye, so they called him Ojo. Get it? Ojo means eye in spanish..get it? Get it? That's funny right?



Speaking of eyes. So let me get this straight, needle to the eye = bad, person in the eye = just fine. Got it.



How could anyone resist the beauty of the big headed Flash. That's what it's all about right there.



Hey look! Hal surrounded by bodies! You don't see that anymore in....Oh. Nevermind.



Now that's clever. He's blind. So he says, "I'm fighting blind, because I'm really blind." That Hal, he be smart.



This is a cool cover though.



My god...it's...it's huge.



I guess a GL ring doesn't work on Fruit and Eggs. Jeez, look what it did to his costume.




I miss big lizard villains.



Hell Yeah!!



Why ya hitting yourself?!? Why ya hitting yourself?!?



Ok see this cover. He turned the people invisible in issue #7. Got it? OK. Now look at #27.



He forgot about them!!! Can you believe that? They've been invisible for 20 issues just wandering around town. How can you call him a hero after that?






Mmmmm. Gil Kane cover goodness.

There are a few ways to go with this take your pick...

Now that's marketing!

It's just a tattoo Hal, damn you're a wimp.

I have my own brand of power! Hal power!!!

Lantern Smash!!!

Ok that's enough.



Sinsestro says,"Don't hate the playa, hate the game".



I'm glad they dropped the angry man thing from Stewart's character. He's such a better character for it. They really did evolve the character in Mosaic. Good stuff there.



Hey look it's Replikon. Remember him? He showed up at the beginning of Rucka's Superman run.



Hey look!!! Batroc is in the DC Universe!!! And..Ummm..Hal? Take off the mask. That's all you have to do.



This is my favorite GL cover of them all.



And this, this is my favorite Green Lantern story of all time.

A while before this story GL Guy Gardner was recharging his ring when his lantern blew up supposedly atomizing him. Before he died he was dating this gypsy fortune teller. After Guy's death Hal comforts her and they get a thing going. Soon they're getting married, but the gypsy woman is racked by nightmares where she sees Guy still alive. She finally breaks down during their wedding and tells Hal that Guy is still alive somewhere right as they were supposed to say "I do". Superman and Hal run off and they find out that Guy is in the Phantom Zone. Let's pause for a second.

GUY GARDNER IN THE PHANTOM ZONE! How cool is that?

Anyway he's been watching Hal put the moves on his woman the whole time so he's pissed. He's been working with the Phantom Zone Criminals and when Superman and Hal go into the Phantom Zone to save him, they basically get their asses handed to them. And the story ends with Guy still in the zone, Hal vowing to save him, and the gypsy woman (i forgot her name) says she can't be with Hal as long as her true love Guy is still alive.

They don't write stories like that anymore.

Peace.
