Can we have a thread about the best Green Lantern?Ok, second best, she's not Guy.
I love her. She's cute. She's strong in a way no other Green Lantern was before. She has issues and flaws and she overcomes them. I have similar issues and she helps me a lot. It's awesome how one comic book character can positively impact one's life.
I don't like her.
I can see where they would want a female GL but I don't like her... she annoys me..
What do you think a Lantern-construct onahole feels like?
>>94460198
>female character of color that isn't defined by her gender or ethnicity
>attractive
>well written
>inspiration for those that share her issues
>lead character with lots of growth
>written by humphries
I'm still in awe. Makes some sense considering Johns had a one-on-one with him.
Im actually surprised how well Ive taken a liking to her. At first I was annoyed, dropping the Power Ring persona and thinking "Oh great, ANOTHER Green Lantern from Earth", but her anxiety works really well with the GL mantra. She's a rookie, shes terrified, but she still manages to overcome it.
>>94460877
It actually makes sense she can't be Power Ring anymore since she'd be in direct contact with Volthoom and that would stunt her growth. She was popular as Power Ring because she was flawed and had an evil presence giving her power. Now that she's a GL she can overcome her personal fears and that can create organic conflict.

That's n-
>Ok, second best, she's not Guy.
Nipped my complaint in the bud, you did.
shitty character since she lost the power ring but is whiteknighted by wafiu fags
>>94461353
She is awesome.
>>94461353
Goddamn!

>>94460800
This is darn near everything I want to see in a 'Girl Power' character (or any character, really). It shows that there's a considerable middle ground between something like Slutfire and the sort of SJW pandering Marvel's been doing. I really appreciate that kind of thinking.
I love Jess
>>94460877
Should Jessica replace John as the rookie in the GL movie?
>>94460198
ThiccJessica or LoliJessica?
>>94462840
> Hal being a veteran leader of the GL.
> John also being a veteran, but the main teacher who teaches the viewers and Jess about the Green Lantern mythos.
> Jess being a rookie learning under John.
> Save Guy as a Veteran, and introduce him as a former Green Lantern who leads one faction in a Red Lantern Civil war if they reach that far.
>>94462840
Would Power Ring still be a part of her origin?
>>94463181

>>94463181
I like her big butt.
Simon x Jessica otp
>>94463521
Too black.
How would she looks in real life? I don't think she is black.
>>94460716
>getting out of bed in the morning... sometimes that feels impossible
That's awfully uncharacteristic of a member of a group whose defining quality is willpower.
>>94460790
I would assume you could make any texture you want. Could they make it the right temperature by simulating molecules and vibrating them? Maybe that's a little too much effort.
>>94463181
Both
>>94464031
Oh fuck off with that cliche shit. Not every partner needs to be a romantic interest. Get weird, have Scarecrow crushing on her or something
>>94464281
B-but Simon and Jess are so good together.
>>94464215
>That's awfully uncharacteristic of a member of a group whose defining quality is willpower.
That's what makes her awesome. She uses her willpower to overcome such things. It's trivial for most people but for people with severe depression it's not, it requires a tremendous amount of willpower.
>>94464383
They are good together as partners and friends. They don't need to be anything more.
>>94464383
Right but a good friendship doesnt have to become a ship. Its bordering on Kyle hooking up with Carol.
>>94464446
>Its bordering on Kyle hooking up with Carol.
That's going too fucking far anon.
>>94464436
>>94464446
I think they have something more closer than just friendship.
>>94464471
Ok yeah that was a bit far (thank god thats over and we will never speak of it again). But its still a dumb pairing
>>94464538
You're projecting anon
Is there enough content fir a recommended reading?
>>94464935
Have we seen Carol anywhere recently?
>>94464064
A darker America Ferrara
>>94460198
But that isn't Kyle Rayner.
>>94464935
Maybe I am but Simon and Jess clearly care for each other deeply and while it's platonic as of now, it might not always be.
>>94460198
>Another Earth Lantern
>Not a dolphin
who is in charge of these shit decisions?
>>94465631
Those dick sucking Guardians.

You know what? Have Barry date Jess. Iris is being a cunt right now and they seemed to have hit it off pretty good when first meeting
Her old costume was better.
>>94467199
I could fap to that Brave and the Bold pairing.
>>94467230
>Simon visibly mad right there
This only strengthens my resolve for Barry/Jess
>>94467199
Looks like The Flash writer doesn't want Barry and Jess together.
My favorite Jess page. She's so perfect
>>94467285
I think they're on a break after Thawne's gay wild ride right?
>>94467376
>>94467285
It got sunk for Iris I believe

Why can't waifus exist in real life, /co/?
Seems as good a place as any to ask this:
What are some essential trades/hardcovers/omnis to read if I want to get into Green Lanterns? I've never read anything GL related but they seem cool
Not picky which characters, would be best to read as many as I can really.
Also if there are any good ongoings, I'd like to know as well.
>>94467484

We know it's you Hitch, aren't you busy ruining more DC books?
>>94464436
Shut the fuck up Whedon
>>94469140
Why does DC think Hitch is a writer?
>>94460198
she sexy
>>94469175
Whedon is all about hooking up people just because they shared a glance
>>94467219
I miss the hairband
>>94464266
A thicclolijessica? Can such a thing exist?
I like Jessica is becoming more confident
I want Tom King to ruin her.
>>94467484
Anyone got suggestions?

>>94469840
Reading nearly any Geoff Johns Green Lantern is a good start. Would also recommend that Larfleeze solo. Im sure another anon can be more through
I like all the Lanterns, but Hal is my favorite.
I wish he would move to a different color to differentiate himself from the horde.
>>94469878
They probably should have kept Guy as a Red Lantern
>>94464408
So why aren't the millions of people with depression Green Lanterns?
It's a dumb concept, but I can see how depressed/anxious people latch onto her.
>>94469869
What happened to that guy that was storytiming Geoff's run? I can't find anything in the archive and I was really enjoying it.
>>94320124
>>94467021
>you will never eat Jessica out of her jammies
>tfw you were one of the first to waifufag her
>now she's spoiled
>>94469894
No doubt.
Guy should forge an identity as Red Lantern. Like you see "Red Lantern" is going to be in a team or something and you know it's Guy.
I want my boy Hal to be Black Lantern, but I know that's unpopular.
>>94469927
Try thishttp://readcomiconline.to/Comic/Green-Lantern-2005
Im sure you can take it from there
>>94469878

this is youAlso he was already parallax and the spectre
>>94469894
>>94469999
No, fuck you, Guy was horrible as a Red Lantern. Why?
>Had more rage than Atrocitus
Fucking really?
>>94470073
That's your opinion, man. I liked Red Lanterns.
>>94470046
That's an unfair comparison.
It'd be more like there's 7 "Aquamans" ruling Atlantis. It's redundant and dumb.
My idea for Hal to leave green for, like, black would be like Arthur abdicating the Atlantis throne to one of the other Aquaman to go rule Xebel.
>islamophopbia...create Simon. Quickly forget about him when you dont win enough liberal points
>Woman power is in the headlines ...create Jessica. Still pretty much forget about Simon.
Fuck her. Simon was better and one recent PC character is enough. I remember how Simon was supposed to be the one to actually train her
>>94470073
If you were a ginger you'd be pretty fucking mad too
>>94470202
>Hal leaving for the Black Lanterns
first of all, that already happened
second of all, Hal is too stubborn to stay dead since he keeps coming back
third of all, the green lantern ring has the bizarre power to undo death, since it's happened no fewer than three times but nobody talks about it at all
Green Lanterns needs to focus entirely on best girl.
>>94470073
Guy's run leading the Reds was awesome. I NEVER liked Guy until then. Even his look was bad ass.
So bad ass, they took it away from him and gave it to Hal
>>94470318
Arisia getting her own comic? I'm cool with that
>>94470202
>>94470348
I just dont like Guy running the Red Lanterns
>>94470376
>>94470376
But the best girl isIolande
>>94470380
That's fair.
Us Lantern fans have to navigate this clusterfuck. Other heroes don't have 7 coexisting renditions like Green Lantern.
Pissing me off that I need to explain this in every thread.
>chosen to be the new Power Ring because she has a weak mind
>forced to watch as she's controlled by an evil force against her will and can't fight it
>eventually gains some measure of control, but has to fight for it constantly
>loses control again
>fights long enough to sacrifice her life to save the Flash
>now that this ordeal is over she's still depressed and has anxiety though, which she has to fight
She became a Green Lantern by surviving the Power Ring ordeal and even gaining control for a time. That's why she's got the ring, but the ring didn't solve her underlying problems.
>>94470273
Yeah, him being Black Lantern before was why I picked Black. He's also been Yellow a few times.
Actually Yellow would be a better pick since he seems to be able slip in and out of one with ease.
How come nobody has addressed the fact that Green and Yellow ring are exactly the same in their activation requirements, or that Von Daggle's ring not working because he's a shapeshifter makes no sense since any sentient being can use any ring?
Half the rings don't even have prerequisites. Red and Orange find the embers of anger and greed inside you and amplify them, and when you join the Indigo or Violet Corps they just brainwash you. Really, it's just Yellow, Green, and Blue that are hardest to use
>>94470532
Fuck off, Sinestro

We all know who the best lady lantern was. It still hurts.
>>94470659
It's actual Lantern lore that the farther you get from Green in the spectrum (ROYGBIV), the less control you as a person have. Violet and Red control you pretty much.
Yellow, Green and Blue are the hardest to use specifically because of the reasons you listed.
>>94465501
He said second best, not objectively worst to the point that it nearly killed the franchise.
>>94470532
Guy was a better Yellow. He's the only way we'd ever get a consistent good guy Yellow anyway. Everybody else waffles between good and evil or is just straight up bad.
>>94470989
:(
>>94467484
Also, the run of Green Lantern Corps through the Johns era is top notch, I got all the trades on Amazon and don't regret it one bit. Starts with Recharged.
>>94467484
Just avoid V3 and you'll be fine, more or less.
>>94460198

hahahahahaha
>>94472690
>best means strongest
You must be 18 or older to post on this website.
>>94465058
Sort of?
The only recommendation is that you skip the Rebirth Justice League that she's in.
Other than that it's Forever Evil, John's Justice League after it while she's Power Ring, Darkseid War, just to see how she became a GL, then Green Lanterns.
>>94467484
Start with Green Lantern Rebirth.
Not the recent one, but the one from like, 2006 that starts Geoff Johns' run.
After that, read GL Corps Recharge, then start reading both GL and Corps until New 52.
After that, the numbering changes and a couple of new books are added to follow, but since most of them start at the same time, you just need to figure out the order.
>>94471362
separated at birth
>>94469922
IIRC she originally was given the Justice Lords GL ring that fed off their GL's fear/anxiety/whatever
She used it to Do Good and some shit happens to the ring but they give her a regular GL ring for her service and ability to overcome/control her fear
>>94464031
Meh. This ain't anime. Main male character doesn't always have to get with main female character.
