It'd be the Green Lanterns vs. a souped-up Doctor Light, who blinds them all with high-intensity white light projected straight into their optic nerves. Deprived of sight, the Lanterns have difficulty using their powers, and all seems lost, until they hear:<BR/><BR/>"In loudest din or hush profound,<BR/> My ears catch evil's slightest sound,<BR/> Let those who toll out evil's knell,<BR/> Beware my power, the F-Sharp Bell!"<BR/><BR/>Tell me that wouldn't be awesome.John Seaveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07221569513392130884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-49635320486461174782007-09-13T20:32:00.000-04:002007-09-13T20:32:00.000-04:00Ragnell and Kalinara, I'm giving you each 100 inte...Ragnell and Kalinara, I'm giving you each 100 internets for that epic display.<BR/><BR/>(Well, since Guy is my favorite, Kalinara gets 101. :P )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-307406137487753452007-09-13T20:17:00.000-04:002007-09-13T20:17:00.000-04:00Drtsky Rrrr people.Created by Alan Moore, so he's ...Drtsky Rrrr people.<BR/>Created by Alan Moore, so he's got a famous pedigree, he has no known personality flaws, and:<BR/>He's an abstract mathmatical progression with super powers!<BR/>No-one else can match that one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-21401733236025348932007-09-13T17:32:00.000-04:002007-09-13T17:32:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.zhinxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01119544025471120091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-22283471677040991572007-09-13T17:17:00.000-04:002007-09-13T17:17:00.000-04:00Tangent Universe Green Lantern OWNS YOU ALL!!!That...Tangent Universe Green Lantern OWNS YOU ALL!!!<BR/><BR/>That's right, I said it.

I liked Tomar Re.<BR/><BR/>Hal would've been OK if they hadn't tried to revise him into a solo hero & write out the Guardians & the Corps in the late 1980's/early 1990's (end of Green Lantern Corps & the Action Comics Weekly strip). The Silver Age Green Lantern had an extremely silly "magic-hat" power with science-doesn't-work-like-that weakness, but the space stuff was keeping it afloat. When they tried to make it more Earth-based after COIE, it lost a lot of its charm & fell apart. But it seems like some editors saw Hal as the ONE TRUE Green Lantern & the rest as Bizarro-Lanterns.<BR/><BR/>Or something.<BR/><BR/>That's why I mock Hal.<BR/><BR/>Kyle I don't mind. He was a redesign, somewhat as Hal was before him; & once they had him established they could have finally gotten rid of the "yellow impurity" thing with a retcon.<BR/><BR/>Too bad they've only halfway done that.philippos42https://www.blogger.com/profile/03017833690057882164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-90919825114398625742007-09-13T13:17:00.000-04:002007-09-13T13:17:00.000-04:00I'm sorry, but you're all so very wrong.

Every six months, for pretty much the entire Marz run, they would run a Hal Vs. Kyle article, fanning the flames.

At least no matter which GL of Earth you like (Hal, Guy, John, Kyle or Alan), they're still an active super-hero doing their part for justice. Katar Hol? He's a fading echo of a memory in Carter Hall's brain somewhere. Yes, just what I want to read about.<BR/><BR/>(This, by the way, is the transformation that 'Showcase Presents' has wreaked upon me. I can now actually rant about my favorite Hawkman.
