RIP Mukmuk we hardly knew ye

seriously we only knew you when you got replaced by a Durlan

that's it, what do you think anons?

>>78964066
I'm hungry

>>78964066
oh for fuck's sake

>>78963812

good plan

>>78964066
it has potential to be good, but considering that Taylor is doing this i dont know

>>78963874

pls dont die mogo

>>78964066

This doesn't feel very Taylor-ish. Like there' something missing

>>78963924

I'm asking the same thing, Guy

I think we all know what it is

>>78963976
Is that an onion in the background?

>>78963823
Oh wow, she actually said something. It's been years. Now I hope Taylor isn't a cock and kills her off.

>>78964279
That's one of my concerns about this book, I'll be extremely surprised if there aren't a shitload of background GL deaths

if Kilowog dies I will have a fit

>>78963959

this should please some peoples fetishes

>>78964260
Maybe >>78964066 is cipher for NAAARGH

>>78963924
>>78963937
these people remind me of someone... but i'm probably wrong.

>>78964274

could be

>>78964500
Tell us anon

>>78964274
it's a background GL whose name I don't recall, he's shown up before

John Stewarts fans on CBR are pissed about this issue lmao

>>78964592
Tell us...TELL US

>>78964592
>Johnfags are mad
And the sky is blue

>>78964624
I believe they are upset over his lack of page time, nobody treats him as the de facto Corps Leader, and he doesn't give an opinion on this situation >>78963976

>>78964592
Really?
This issue was pretty alright, perhaps better than the previous run.

>>78964708
That Desh guy is even raging at EVS, the Goddamned artist not the writer with not following up on plot developments from Bunn.

Had a more interesting first issue than the lost army.

>>78964885
To be fair EVS deserves all the shit he can get.

>>78965034
why? his art looked pretty great in this

>>78964066
I enjoyed this, but there was a lot of dragging.

>>78965034
What did he do wrong?

>>78964695

Well Guy is there so John being the defector leader is not going to happen or the Guy fans will get pissy

>>78963775
holy shit Baz exists

>>78965209
Lost Army had everybody treating John as the new leader, even though that didn't make any sense

>>78965079
>>78965158
He's a shit artist and he's responsible for Barry Allen coming back. Fuck him.

>>78965308
aw go cry about Wally somewhere else

>>78965238
I know, I love it, Anon.

>>78965308
Pfft, you really know how to make a person laugh anon.

>>78963641
didn't realize Taylor was writing this, now I'm interested. The last Miniseries didn't do that goo.

>>78964592
What AREN'T they pissed about?

So this whole thing is a take on the refugee crisis?

Is Taylor in support of Merkel's policies, because of what Kilowog said, or against them because there are clearly some murderous aliens planning a takeover as evidenced by Mukmuk's death?

>>78964066

Poor Mr. Fish. Admittedly it's just because was he was a fish and had neat speech bubbles, but he was one of the few memorable new lanterns of the post-Johns era.

>>78969408
>but he was one of the few memorable new lanterns of the post-Johns era.
Haven't they already killed like half those guys off? Two six is getting some face time and I think I saw Gorin Sunn and Feska but Jruk and that little guy got killed in LA

>John Stewart fans

...this is a thing?

>>78963924
>>78964260
maybe this one?

>>78971211
Yes and they tend to be part of three groups

A few who genuinely like the character, the people who like him because DCAU, and the ones who mostly just like him because he's black

>>78963715
Eeewww, Simon Baz.

>>78964066
The new location has a dark secret? And redshirts are dying? Who could have seen such twists coming?

>>78969385

You do know that Taylor is Australian anon? He probably doesn't give a shit about Merkel's policies.

Should i even bother reading?!
I really love geoff John lantern corps runs.

Should i rock on?

>>78964066
I feel I've read this story a dozen times already. GL Corps is a milked out concept apparently.

Whatever happen to that first lantern guy that the guardians had locked away?

I think i missed a storytime.
I think he was like a robot or sentient being that the guardians managed to lock away and also betrayed other guardians to do it by making them construct his prison.

Hal depowered him, Nekron killed him.

Welp looks like i have my awnser.

>>78974652
>>78964592


Green lanterns books with Geoff tend to be inconsistent sometimes and this is clearly one of those times

>>78973264
>only Germans have opinions on a continental policy spearheaded by Merkel

>>78974743
what was his name so i can wiki him if you would be so kind.

I forgot what the dudes name was.
I think it was something simple like the first lantern or something

>>78974797
Volthoom, THE FIRST LANTERN!

>>78974652
I want John to be killed off just to read the anguish on CBR

>>78974825
Ditto. It doesn't even have to be permanent, just for one issue.

>>78964034
so did the lanterns get blown to the past or something?

Thats the impression im getting

>>78975003
To universe before theirs. To place where Relic is from.

>>78974809
>Volthoom, THE FIRST LANTERN!
thanks anon

>>78964500
they remind me of the larfleeze god things

>>78974652
God, the John Stewart topic is a travesty. Ethan Van Sciver himself showed up to assure them that John would play a big role in the next issue. The response? They attack him for not continuing off from Lost Army. You know, the book that got cancelled for its mediocrity

>>78975597
And Cullen Bunn showed up to defend Van Sciver, explaining that Edge of Oblivion was in the works before Lost Army ended

Between this and Jasonfags freaking out over Robin War, this has been a good day to laugh at characterfags

>>78975597
It reminds me of other Appreciation Threads that are full of nothing sensible, gifs and hyperproduction of posts where they bitch about treatment of their character/praise boots/are in <3 with hair and shit.

>>78975620
>Jasonfags freaking out over Robin War
All of them or only Tziminine?

>>78975636
There's one other Jasonfag (Aahz) who keeps complaining about how Jason isn't winning enough fights

Flabbergaster is EVS

>>78975647
Eh.
>>78975687
Entitlement: the post.

>>78975687
I can get where he's coming from though, I thought edge of oblivion was just gonna follow on lost army but it really doesn't

>>78975755
>anon feels he's entitled to good writing
Congrats on thinking past the insult-of-the-week.

>>78965209
what Guy fans?

>>78975755
I assumed it would too but now knowing that EOO was in the works before LA even ended it makes sense that it doesn't

LA was pretty meh so I kinda don't care, although I did want to know what was the deal with Krona and Relic

>>78974652
This is basically how I felt when Taylor came on to Earth 2, but now that's it's happening to someone else I only feel schadenfreude

>>78963976
#NotAllAliens

>>78977389
>I did want to know what was the deal with Krona and Relic

I did to. The fact that they dont appear to be in this in some way bums me out.

>>78975687
Holy shit I just played Red Orchestra with a guy named Flabbergaster who was whinging about comics

>>78963698
Those guys were fast as lightning!

>>78981071
Ask him if he draws comics!

>>78974652
God forbid a writer tell his own story in a six fucking issue mini series.

>>78981071
Holy shit.


People still play red orchestra? I remember what that was just a UT2k4 mod.

Wow, I think this is the first time I've genuinely enjoyed a GL/GLC story in years (since Johns left the title). I mean, it's not perfect or anything, but it felt kind of satisfying seeing all these guys again.

But knowing my luck with this series, I'm not going to get my hopes up either. I'll just wait for future storytimes and/or the trade.

Also, it's nice to see Salaak competently drawn again. I missed Scivier's take a lot. Actually, I missed Salaak, period.
