Honestly, gotta go with Gotham Central.

Not like in the way we know it as

One punch probably didn't happen. Kyle as main GL probably didn't happen
>>
>>80840859
One Punch was referenced in Red Lanterns and I think as well in the early JLI series. Kyles run doesn't entirely make sense with that "5 year" rule but it's still there otherwise a lot of things don't make sense like Oa not being destroyed, Guardians being alive and most of what led up to Rebirth. Besides, GL is Johns' baby. He basically just continued on with his story despite the Nu52 starting.

>That's a character that Mark Waid invented that was really just put to me like come up with the most God awful, Rob Liefeld sort of design that you can. What I was stealing from was - really only two key designs of Rob's - the design of Cable. I hated it. I felt like it looked like they just threw up everything on the character - the scars, the thing going on with his eye, the arm, and what's with all the guns? But the thing is, when I put those elements together with the helmet of Shatterstar -- I think that was his name -- well, the ram horns and the gold, suddenly it held together as one of the designs that I felt happiest with in the entire series. -Alex Ross

HAH! thats pretty awesome, i still need to read Kingdom Come, not sure why I haven't already other than the sheer amount of books I want to read in general
