Let's pick apart what's canon and what's not canon franchise by franchise

Green Lantern

In terms of all the space stuff, that's canon right?

The only major shit that isn't canon is Alan Scott and Kyle banging his daughter and I don't think Hal's classic adventures with Barry and Oliver are canon either.

But I think the main space wars and the whole Hal Parallax thing with Coast City getting BTFO is canon? Right?

Hal Jordan as the Spectre and Guy Gardner as the Warrior i'm so sure about though

I'm not if Rebirth happened but in a way that didn't involve other DC characters who had major changes to them?

Sorry

Yeah Parallax and Coast City getting destroyed are canon, they mention Parallax fairly often

Spectre Hal and Warrior Guy were mentioned very briefly in GL #20 but I think that's the only time Warrior has been mentioned since GL Rebirth. I dunno if Spectre Hal is still canon or not, especially with Jim Corrigan back to being the Spectre

What they haven't really covered was WHO destroyed Coast City since Hank Henshaw was never Cyborg Superman post-Flashpoint, I guess they could just say it was Mongul

Oh, anon.

It's all canon. Welcome to the DCU.

YOU SPINELESS MOTHERFUCKERS ARE THE REASON WHY DC JUST WALKS OVER ITS FANBASE

>Alan Scott
>not canon

I know why you would say that, I know why some people would. But he's canon as all get-out.

Kettle, pot, etc. Calm down and enjoy comics.

>>88430384

Nobody cares about Lanterns except for Johns and Cereal King groupies.

The could have Nolan direct a Green Lantern movie written by him, his brother with Heath Ledger starring as Hal and nobody would still give two fucks.

But Johns didn't even have the best run.
>>
>>88431707

Kylefags have nothing to do with Johns. The mere fact that's a thing disproves your generalizing.

GL can be cool, but it's often forgotten that the setting, abilities and lore are more of a draw than Hal Jordan's character itself.
>>
>>88430478
>What they haven't really covered was WHO destroyed Coast City since Hank Henshaw was never Cyborg Superman post-Flashpoint
Except if Rebirth goes the way expected, that will be the case once again, since "Post-Flashpoint" is a lie and we're in an altered Post-Crisis continuity.

Though, this does raise the question of what Hank Henshaw is up to now.
>>
>>88432083
There aren't a significant number of Kylefags and all Johnfags are also DCAUfags who don't actually care about GL alone that much
>>
>>88430384
OP, you're just gonna have to roll with it.

I mean, if you keep thinking too much about it you're going end up wrapping your head around how Final Crisis and Blackest Night are still canon.

It took DC years to fix the post-crisis continuity, until they screwed everything up with Infinite Crisis.

But regarding GL, most of Johns' stuff and beyond are relevant, I guess.

Like Identity Crisis.

It's odd how Green Lantern's manged to kind of keep the same continuity going since 1959 when most other DC characters have had some kind of full wipe or ten during that time.
>>
>>88432256
>Though, this does raise the question of what Hank Henshaw is up to now.
He was in Lois and Clark mini.
>>
>>88432764
Well, the New 52 kind of fucked that up, from the flashbacks we saw during the Third Army/Wrath of the First Lantern stories.
>>
>>88432764
GL has had minor changes and retcons but yeah it's one of the more intact things in DC
>>
>>88432764
Hal's outfit has been relatively unchanged since his debut. It's just a damn fine uniform.
>>
>>88433073
Flash's hasn't been changed that much either.

Yeah it's had very minor tweaks, getting the green shoulders in the 60s and then losing the leotard bottom after Rebirth are the only major changes

it's such a perfect costume

>>88433359
true although I'd say the Speedforce itself was a pretty major change and Wally stopped existing for a few years
>>
>>88430794
did Marvel really do that?
>>
>>88433395
What does Death of the Endless feel about Nekron and Black Lanterns in general?
>>
>>88433395
>true although I'd say the Speedforce itself was a pretty major change and Wally stopped existing for a few years
Well, I was talking mainly about the outfit. The DCnU redesign was the biggest one I can recall and it still mostly follows the classic formula, just with more lines in it.

>>88433440
She said the number of people that come back to life is still nothing compared to the number of people that stay dead so she doesn't care

Oh, >>88432764 said continuity, I didn't realize you meant costume

Did Zero Hour happen?

>It's all canon. Welcome to the DCU.

Morrison pls, you just want to fuck it.

t. Marvelshit
>>
>>88434263
It was mentioned zero times so...

paralax did...

>>88436520
Zero Hour isn't the becoming Paralax story.
>>
>>88432256
>>88432817
he thinks he is Supergirl's dad
>>
>>88437349
wrong
>>
the only 2 Kyle stories I've ever read were the team-up with the brown Green Arrow kid and when he went inside of a painting
are those still canon
>>
>>88437475
No and maybe.
>>
>>88437518
also I read this time travel story with Alan and Hal I think a long time ago
what was that and is that canon
>>
>>88437586
Right now, no. Maybe with JSA getting Rebirthed.
>>
>>88431859
Johns' is the only good GL run.
>>
>>88437645
>muhhh colors
>>
>>88430384

I am still angry that they fucked up the Guardians of the Universe.

God forbid that a group of old, powerful authority figures are somehow NOT corrupt and evil.
>>
>>88433425

No, he was still white. The new Electro is a woman now, though.
>>
>>88437645
No
>>
>>88438320

It's another GL trope.

The fallibility of the Guardians, their replacement and return.
>>
>>88432764
because it had nothing worthwhile until Johns arrived

only the character with a rich background got retconned time and time again like Superman
>>
Kyle's a White Lantern, right? And so is Swamp Thing.
>>
>>88430384
Parallax is always going to be canon. That was legit one if Hals most iconic stories.
>>
>>88438679
At least prior to Johns they at least realized they were fucking up and attempted to fix it like when they fucked off after the Crisis to go bang the Zamarons. Meanwhile the end of Johns' run was them going off the deep end and creating parasite creatures to make the universe 'orderly' and getting killed by Sinestro.
