P.S. I know Sayd and Scar are both female Guardians, but they were both created years after "In Brightest Day" aired. Please Google things. :D
Watchtower Database 1:33 well I guess you will address that issue someday?
Watchtower Database also remember I said about the invisible man 2020 movie were Elizabeth Moss was in the batman episode called “See No Evil” ?
I really miss that Batman website. I didn't make a binder but I did right click and print every character...... At my mom's job.
Nice flex
I must say, I wasn't expecting to watch a DCI show when I clicked on a Green Lantern video, but it's a welcome surprise. You guys even look like Lanterns. What section were you in?
I feel like we should’ve got a Green Lantern animated series in the DCAU
That’d be badass
Technically Green Lantern: the animated series may or may not be part of the DCAU. 🤷♂️
@@CLDJ227 it was a good stand alone series, but it wasn't part of the DCAU
DCAMU Déh Câh Møo
@@CLDJ227 It's not, it's by Bruce Timm but yeah.
Possibly the hardest topic this channel has gotten to since the yellow batsuit.
Harder than J'onn's powers?
Harder than Superman's longevity?
Harder than Barry Allen in the DCAU
In brightest day, in blackest night, no DCAU character cameo will escape the Watchtower Database's sight.
One thing I really miss about Dwayne is how open to answering lore questions he was compared to Bruce. Bruce just seems sick of the entire dcau subject sometimes.
A lot of writers/actors/directors/etc tend to dislike their most famous work(s) because every interview, every convention, they always get asked the same questions that they've answered 500 times before.
@ianfinrir8724 Sounds like a skill issue. It's famous for a reason, and people like it. The authors being negative about it is dumb lmao
@@tristanpelkey9109dude if you made somthing famous then I doubt you would have the same mindset when you have been asked the same thing several thousand times. Personally if something I made becomes that popular I would love that it still had fans several decades later but I would also grow a bit bored with answering the same question over and over and over again.
@galning2768
Speak for yourself, I’d be honored and excited to share more tidbits for a universe I helped craft. Lore stuff is my jam.
Sinestro may rob a train, but Lex Luthor still stole 40 cakes.
And that's terrible.
"They wanted to diversify the roster so went with John Stewart instead of Kyle Rayner."
...sigh yet another time Kyle's hispanic roots are overlooked :(
It's more striking with john stewart.
@@joshuawatson575 certainly. Just bothersome Kyle's background gets forgotten so often.
1. I legit had no idea any version of Kyle had Hispanic roots.
2. At least Maria Canals voiced Shayera! That's not quite a lot of representation though, I know.
Well seeing as John Stewart was a GL before Kyle Rayner, it makes sense that they went with him as the main GL and Kyle as a cameo.
@@wanderlustwarrior I think one version of him is bi-racial having some Hispanic roots, but then again it could also be that Hispanic people married into his family which is why he would have Hispanic relatives.
I could also be completely wrong since it's been a while since I read the comics, since there is like no comic shops anywhere near me
I like John Stewart and I get with the time the show came out, John and Kyle were the more active Green Lanterns in comics.
But for the show to not even address Hal Jordan, apart from when they made him an anomaly. Hal’s the first & greatest Green Lantern of all time and will always be mine Green Lantern, so to not include him was disappointing.
It was worse that they gave Hal’s origin to Kyle and even brought in Sinestro with no Hal. If the show referenced Parallax or Emerald Twilight It would be more understandable, but they didn’t and instead gave Hal’s origin to Kyle.
And it’s also disappointing that they never brought in Guy Gardener (who is my second favourite Green Lantern).
My headcanon for Hal is that he never became a Lantern in the DCAU, but during one or more of those multiversal crisis-ish crossovers the League teamed up with a Hal Jordan from another universe who was instrumental in saving the day, became an honorary League member during that time, and was remembered in the DCAU history books for it.
That sounds very convoluted and kinda lazy. Very handwavy. I'd prefer they actually do something interesting with it instead of just a handwavy explanation like that
I don't have anything to say just feeding the algorithm
Meow.
Ok
Whatchtower
J
*LIGHT 'IM UP!*
John went hard
If I had to guess, Timm & co. wanted to use Hal Jordan in S:TAS, but DC told them that they could only use the comic's current-at-the-time GL: Kyle Rayner (much like DC wouldn't allow the DCAU to have a kryptonian Supergirl, because DC was adamant about Superman being "the last son of Krypton"). DCAU's Kyle Rayner may have Jordan's origin, but his personality is very close to the comic's Kyle. Comic's Kyle Rayner has an origin that is impossible to adapt, since it is too informed by Hal Jordan's "fall from grace".
The Supergirl one is so f**kin dumb, like who cares if Superman isn't the only survivor of Krypton, like really, while I liked Supergirl in the DCAU, I feel like this s**ty mentality of "Superman needs to be the only survior of Krypton because we say so" had caused other versions of Supergirl that are just flat out terrible.

What!? Need explanation please.
This is very educational
I actually like when the Green Lanterns have distinct uniforms. And I have no problem with them changing. Their suits are manifestations of their thoughts anyway, lol 😅. It would only make sense for them to change every once in a while.
On a slightly different note, I always hated when their uniforms would remain when someone removed their ring. That never made any sense to me, lol 😅. It's created from their thoughts... BY THE RING! So how the heck does it stay behind when the ring loses power or is removed!? It makes NO SENSE, lol 😅.
Why dont you ask Katma Tui that?
@@eluzadarkholme9193 who the heck is Karma Tui?
@@SpiderboyN2Jesus15:19 The Green Lantern of Korugar, who replaced Sinestro after he went bad guy, and a drill instructor of the Corps. She also had a brief relationship with John Stewart.
You know they picked Kyle because he was GL in the comics, and Hal was a genocidal murderer that wiped out all of time in the comics.
maybe the Hal Jordan of the dcau has the rank of Honor Guard
like his Green Lantern animated series counterpart dose. which could explain why we never saw him because he's busy, protecting all of the sector/clusters of Guardian space.
Yeah, I mean he and John are the GLs people always reference.
Kyle is like waiting for him.
I believe that Hal of this Earth dedicated his career to mostly in outer space instead of Earth because it has John and sometimes Kyle instead. In that time travel episode of JLU where we see Hal from the alternate timeline, that would mean that Hal and John's positions were switched so Hal remains on Earth and John is stationed in space. As for Star Sapphire, maybe she once had a thing for Hal something happened between the two so Hal left and she pretty much gave up on him and now is an enemy of John who I guess she's taking her anger out mostly on him being a Green Lantern rather than John himself.
LOL Guilty by association. John Stewart tell your friend Hal that he is a sob.
As much as it's just speculation, I think I prefer to imagine Hal Jordan joining the Corps some time around when John did, if only because I prefer Hal being among the first human Green Lanterns. Just cuz his plane is still at that base doesn't mean he's still flying. He was probably also Honor Guard or something, keeping him mostly away from Earth for a long while, and just never gets mentioned.
Knowing that you printed out an entire website makes my own childhood and adolescence feel...equally cool. Great work.
Why hasn't there been a John Stewart movie yet?
DC is missing a huge opportunity.
John Stewart would have made an appearance in this year's Zack Snyder's Justice League along with Martian Manhunter had WB not intervened as usual.
I personally like to think that all the timey whimey shenanigans of "The One and Future Thing" caused Kyle Reiner and Hal Jordians stories to be retconned around so that Hal got his proper origin and place within the Core even though we never saw it. Also like to think that Allen Scott was Abun Sur using a disguise so he could help during WWII without showing himself as an alien. Though that has no backing from the comics. It's just something I like to think.
That does have some slight backing. In Earth-20, Abin-Sur is conceptually combined with Alan Scott.
You were correct, liking Gundam Wing means Ian doesn't get to talk
Could have been worse. It might have been bloody SEED and/or SEED Destiny. 00, even though that show has its moments.
"The green lantern core is my favorite core, behind Batman"
The Batman core XD
I mean there was Batman Incorporated in the comics pre-New 52 and the Bat-Family is essentially a Batman Corps.
"Let's just Philip Defranco into it," It's because of this referential humor that I love this channel. I love Watchtower Database videos. Now my Sunday night treats.
It took me way too long to realize that Sinestro has that name, in reference to both his character and his left-handedness. Still blows my tiny mind.
You been going all out with these edits and I have to applaud you with that
You guys have been killing it lately!
My headcanon is when a lantern dies his ring goes there ring goes to the nearest worthy person. Regardless of planet and is assigned to a new sector. Which is why we probably don't see hal or guy.
Green Lantern TAS was pretty good, shame it only lasted 1 season but still worth watching.This video kinda reminded me of it.
That show was dope.
The show truly was a gem and in my opinion one of the best DC animated shows/shows in general.
Actually, the traditional Green Lantern villains did do something in the show.
Dr. Polaris try to take over the Legion of Doom....and failed.
Sonar suggest an idea of a fighting ring that includes female superheroe's and he was even feature in that episode....until it failed.
There was one time where Goldface try to go up against Lex Luthor....and failed.
And...uhhh....Evil Star said something after being called "Evil head guy"....and that's it....
Yeah, your right. Most of them don't do much, other than being background characters to filled up a scene.
2:14 I was *reaaaaally* expecting to see Booster Gold in this sequence. But, I'm still watching the video, so I hope I will later on!
27:25, Ahhhh, that's better.
I appreciate your patreon sections so much! Super entertaining!
I headcanon that Hal Jordan was the Green Lantern in like, the 1960s, and kept his exploits fairly quiet or secretive.
Green lantern needs more love ❤❤❤❤
Except for the evil Katma Tui

Yes

My bad.
Someone please sauce me the link for this video if it exists!
Imagine if GLTAS was part of DCAU.
It could get the appreciation it deserves aswell as the new characters it introduced.
I'm pretty sure it's pseudo canon because of fatal 5
@@elijahblechman8633 ya but its like cgi and makes no reference to any existence of non lantern heroes, actively saying not only earth needs green lanterns but has no other heroes. Also alike the Video, hal Jordan was replaced with kyle in name only so there’s the identity double issue there sadly.
Dude. You are so intense and I love everything about it!

This video was legitimately super entertaining
24:12 thank you so much for that. I really need something to cheer me up and make me laugh.
You're probably not talking to me, but you're welcome anyway. I also have a Barry Allen wearing a yellow Batsuit but I don't like that one as much.
@@buddermantheamazing Barry Allen doesn’t exist in this universe. And neither does the yellow bat suit. So that would make sense
I finally decided to join the Patreon, love you guys, love you guys and hope you keep up the great content
Thank you so much!
GOD this video is so good I just love this Channel's Comedic Style plus I got to give them a big Xd for using the Smallville theme song as a joke for that I am eternally grateful. :D
I got it. Jordan became corrupted (mentally unstable), due to ‘seeing’ the beginning of time (thanks a lot Chronos). He then travels through alternate DC animated universes, trying to find his way home. He corrupts the timelines in many of those realities and we see evidence of his corruption in comics and cartoons. He becomes so homesick that he becomes a mental Parallax of his ‘true’ self. Dare I say we will see a DC animated movie, to clean up the timeline(s)?

Kyro got his name from Hal Jordan’s little buddy sidekick from the old Hannah Barbara cartoons and superfriends cartoons
There’s 2 in each sector and for earths sector it’s as many as they need because it’s constantly being attacked
We did a video about Sector partners too, I’d recommend it!

jlu made john stewart my favorite green lantern
I think it's fair to say that the GL wax figure (and Superman) was retconned out, but not the dini story as a whole.
It’s the Superman statue that throws that issue off/out. By the time a wax statue of Superman could be made, reversing time from that would be much before Superman debuted in this universe.
Watchtower Database Fair, but regardless, throw that illustration out, keep the story (even if it can't technically be used for timeline purposes) and just say those particular wax figures were retconned out
You’d need to have them remake the issue then ;) In all technicality, THAT particular issue doesn’t work. A version without those statues does, but that’s not the version we have.
In this history of the corps: combined they seem less effective that a single lantern.
Theory about Hal Jordan: Kyle Rainer died off screen and Hal got his ring. They just swapped the origin. Totally make sense, there are no wholes, don't check
Great, now I feel an urgency to finish that Green Lantern show I watched on TV back in the day
Drum Corps is dope! Awesome video
I just assumed that the other Green Lanterns got promoted to honor guard so we can have them all without continuity issues
Woah DCI World!!! Who'd you march with?
Oregon Crusaders! 2008-2012.
I have a theory that in the DCAU that Hal Jordan was the Green Lantern before John Stewart. passing his ring on too John. And I have an idea of how that would make sense in his brief cameo appearance where John phased out of reality and replaced by Hal in the Chronos episode. In that reality Hal didn’t pass his ring on top John and stayed the green lantern.
Then when did Hal become a member of the Justice League? 🤔
Watchtower Database True that does raise that very important question that could be contradictory to my theory on the Green Lanterns of the DCAU. I do have an idea that could potentially answer it, keep in mind it’s 2:30 am and I’ve had a lot of alcohol in my system already.
-
What if Hal Jordan (And maybe Guy Gardner) were never actually members of the Justice League? Because where we see them they’re surrounded by other Green Lanterns. I just rewatched that scene from Fatal Five while thinking this idea over. It never specifically states that all of the Green Lanterns shown were members of the Justice League. Only stating and to quote the movie: “Included in the Justice League Ranks, were members of the legendary Green Lantern Corp. Now lost to the ages.” My thought process is that it doesn’t actually say that Hal or Guy were members of the JL, it only states there were members but not how many. And we know that John, Jessica, and Kyle? were members. That last line somewhat supports my theory. When she says they were lost to the ages. It could suggest that they don’t know which members of the Green Lanterns were also on the Justice League. And so the shrine could Include Lanterns who weren’t members of the Justice League. Something else to mention we don’t see Kai Ro, the Human Green Lantern in Batman Beyond, depicted here in the Fatal Five. Even though he is a Human member of Justice League. Based off that info gives me the notion that the Lanterns shown would have to all be Lanterns in roughly the same time period. This same theory of mine can also be applied to Guy Gardner. My final theory on this is that Hal Jordan (and possibly Guy Gardner) were Green Lanterns before Kyle Rayner and John Stewart. How to explain how Batman didn’t know who Hal Jordan was is pretty simply just chalking it up to space stuff. And he wasn’t on earth similar to Kyle’s character.
That interpretation of the line is possible, but less likely because why then have those specific Green Lanterns on display? They’re all Earth ones. The LoSH come from all over the galaxy, they might as well display a bunch of alien Green Lanterns. 🤷🏼♀️
Watchtower Database That is true. They had to have chosen those specific Green Lanterns for a some reason. As we know there is at the very least one other Human Green Lantern in the DCAU asides from all the hundreds of none humans members.
i have no idea why the made the first GL Kyle Rayner, the guy looks enough like Hal Jordan that they could've made it Hal with literally no changes other than the name but NOPE. they just HAD to drive green lantern fans crazy with this
As a latino,i laughed at the Es Puta joke
John Stewart is actually my favorite lantern
I wish we had gotten a few more DCAU shows instead of and/or after Project Zeta
I want a Green Lantern Corp show, could use this to work in more Hawk Girl stuff, also maybe more Tamaran, first look at Starfire?
Wonder Woman, introduce us to Donna Troy (depowered as of now due to an unexplained situation with the titans, she is given the darkstar costume at some point), could also use this to get some more Aquaman stuff in here, create some timeline room for Garth to have joined back in the day, and maybe show what leads to him becoming Tempest after the first titans disband
A Flash Show, he could just have his own show, I personally would like to see a retcon where it's revealed Wally lied about his origin, he's actually the second Flash and Barry was the first, well, Wally third and Barry second if you count Jay, but in my headcanon Jay has always been canon he just doesn't go by Flash, anyway, my idea for a Flash show, basically start the show by introducing Bart Allen Impulse, and he basically forces Wally to confront/reveal his lie, talk about Barry, reveal there was an unofficial teen titans team up back in the day where Wally was Kid Flash under Barry with Dick Graysen, Roy Harper, Donna Troy, and Garth Aqualad/Tempest (also idk Cyborgs canonicity, if he can work into the original team i want him and Starfire here, because from what i know Starfire hasnt been touched on much at all), Donna "died" (was really hurt and depowered,, then sent back to Themiscyra, which then leads into Diana meeting up with her in her own show), eventually they get Barry out of the speed force, maybe Wally lied so the Flash's villains wouldn't know that a speedster got put out of commission, protecting the symbols reputation, also, maybe he's embarrassed about having been a sidekick
Eventually this lead into a modern Teen Titans show, bring back Dick as Nightwing, Roy as Arsenal, Donna as Darkstar, Wally Flash can stop in too with JL members
have Tim as Robin, Beast Boy, Impulse, Miss Martian, Connor Kent Superboy, maybe a new version of the Kaldur Aqualad from Young justice?? Join as the new teen titans, and then even later on introduce Damian and Johnathan Kent Superboy into the mix and you got all the generations!
I could see hal being added to the corps during jlu. Sector 2814 deals with a lot of stuff so having an extra lantern or two wouldn't be too werid. Hal could also be chosen to deal with star saphire specfically given she is his girlfriend.
First flight is my head canon
Lanterns are definitely some of the greatest characters to ever exist but their stories are a little harder to follow
You guys are awesome! You should totally have a podcast
We did for a couple years! “12th Level Intellects.” Starting it back up in live video form decently soon!
DEAR GOD, DUDE. I also printed the whole Batman/Superman page! I must still have this in some box at my parents home somewhere. Wow, I would never remember that if it wasn't for this video.
Happy to bring back that memory for you!
Dodgeball and Dog-man would also make a good band name. Write it down James!
I wasn't expecting my name to show up halfway through the video lol Cool!

Green Lantern TAS:Will it canon when
Yes
By this timeline, by the end of JLU, John should be in his late 40s or early 50s, but is he ever called the first human Green Lantern? If not, there's an alternate idea for Hal: Hal was active in the 1960s-1970s. There's not a lot discussed about the pre-Batman post-WW2 DCAU heroes, but we know there were heroes. So, first Green Lantern, Hal Jordan. John has been Green Lantern since the 80s, about 15 years from 2000/2001. So, ballpark estimate, 30 years old in 1985 when he becomes Green Lantern. He's ex-Marines, college educated, not a fresh graduate, so 30yo sounds like a reasonable age. Joined up "young" according to canon, which we could estimate is likely 18 if he did so legally. So, that would be in 1973. That gives him and Rex two years in Vietnam, which makes sense for his character. In 1985, something happens and John replaces Hal. Hal obviously wasn't an important figure in Earth history, because Green Lantern was not common knowledge. So, to explain that, perhaps Hal became Green Lantern around 1970 and, fearing America trying to use him in Vietnam, instead left Earth behind and managed the sector instead of slumming it on Earth like he usually does.
As for how Hal Jordan managed to join the Justice League later on? Simple: resurrection! He's already someone with a history of coming back from the dead, so why not? Something happened in 1985, Hal Jordan bit the dust. John Stewart replaced him, a second GL was added to the sector because that is a pretty bad death rate (bringing in Abin) and John proved himself in the sector. Abin dies, and it selects another human because humans are special. The humans are rotated, JL happens, and some time after JLU something happens and oh look Hal Jordan isn't dead anymore. Hal comes back to Earth, joins the League, does some great stuff, dies again, and nobody really cares that much by the time of Batman Beyond because Hal Jordan is the wonderbread of superheroes. So unnoticable that it's like there's a perception filter on him.
John Stewart was my Green Lantern
That's amazing that you have a drum Corp ring! I always wanted one but couldn't afford a drum Corp sponsorship.
Getting first place in 2012 was pretty dope, but pretty much every year I marched was a phenomenal learning experience.
Regardless of their origins, it’s likely just a case of alternates with Hal being the former active patrolman of the sector.
As for Kyle, he’s likely still adjusting, primarily to the core considering that variant was essentially drafted and we don’t know how long actual formal training takes place.
Guy Gardner is normally depicted as someone with an attitude problem, so likely constantly under disciplinary lockdown. What that actually consists of take your pic.
Hey guys, wanted to get your take on if you think DC will continue to add to the DCAU. I’ve been a big fan of their newer movies and would love to see more. Also with the new figures and comics getting dropped, I was wondering if you think they’d ever revive BTAS or JL or even make a new show. Also, would love to hear you guys talk other comic related stuff. I’m obviously mostly here for DCAU stuff but I love your content and would be down to hear more! Keep up the great work!
Thanks, Nick! We normally discuss this kind of thing on our podcast, but that’s on hiatus right now while we figure out some logistics of rebooting it. You can check out all the previous episodes (“12th Level Intellects”) here on the channel or on iTunes. We talked about the new figures in the last episode!
My guess is earth has so many green lanterns because
A) they're offworld. If GL: TAS is Cannon it kind explains Hal and Guy is there too.
B) Earth has way more baddies than most other planets (and I forget their relationship with Apokalips)
LMAO when you brought up the TNBA and Superman website i got so many flashbacks of those pop up tabs and random downloads it had 😂
This is a good video you made in 2020
Hi, I'm Brazilian and I'm a big fan of your channel, and I have a video suggestion: You could make a video talking about Star Sapphire, she made some appearances with lines in the Justice League, but in the Justice League Unlimited she made only cameos without lines. She is my favorite DCAU character.
We talk about her in this video! That's pretty much all we know about her in the DCAU, unfortunately. Hopefully she comes back in a future movie!
@@dcauwatchtower I also hope, And I also believe that Hal Jordan exists in DCAU, because Star Sapphire says the following sentence in the episode Fury - Part 2:
"and I can say goodbye to a lot of nasty men I've known over the years."
Was she referring to Hal Jordan?
I didn't know Joshua Tomar was a green lantern! That must be how he made the famed Tomar emeralds
They deserve to have a movie like Justice League vs the Fatal Five
Somebody saaaaaaave meee
Galius-Zed of "Nut Sag" had me😂😂😂
I liked the idea of John and Kyle being the only human GLs in this universe because it made the role special and made the GL identity as iconic as Superman and Batman. Now they've genericized it, which is a huge problem in the comics. Why? Why introduce Hal, when Barry was also erased but not brought back? Why complicate the Green Lantern mythos but not the Flash one? Seems like someone just doesn't like the idea of the main GL being black.
JLK
What? What do you mean? The flash lore is complicated as hell.
You got Jay Garrick who sometimes only exists on earth 2 and sometimes was only on main earth and sometimes exists on both. You got Barry Allen who died and then came back to life because he was in the speedforce being chased by black flash and not properly dead. You got wally west who was kid flash and then became the flash. You got Bart allen, barry’s grandson from the future who also became the flash at one point. There’s Avery Ho who is hero that lives in China who also calls herself the flash. Theres a future version Wallace west (not to be confused with wally) that also became the flash.
And those are just the speedsters who have went by “the flash”. There are so many more.The flash lore is just as complicated. There are currently 3 people who go by “the flash” simultaneously and one of them has the powers of doctor Manhattan now!
Plus from Hal Jordan onward the green lanterns were supposed to be in multitude. They’re the space cops. You can’t just have one space cop.
Also at the moment there are only 4 white human green lanterns. The other human green lanterns are of other races so the black comment doesn’t really make much sense to me.
Shout out to Tron Travolta.
A small Tron army is collecting up. Tron Lanterns 😂
This video was sick! Could we get a will it canon on krypto the super dog?
Earned my respect when you mentioned that ring...
I’ve started having a head-canon that Hal became a Green Lantern after The Return. Like, maybe after that scare with Amazo, the Corps decided they needed more Lanterns and Hal was recruited from his pilot job that way.
There needs to be a video on exactly when John Stewart received his Green Lantern ring and became a Green Lantern. Was he still in the Marines when it happened, or was his already discharged from active service?
I love green lantern I’ve been a loyal follower of them since 2011 and I have so much merch and comics from it... it’s crazy ! Like my fav is John Stewart he’s my favorite character in all comics
Followed by Kyle rather, Jessica Cruz, guy Gardner, Hal jordan, and lastly the other dude
Actually it has been known in the comics that the guardians can pick and choose people to get a GL ring. Even though normally it's the ring that picks the next person, or first person if it's a new ring.
Tron Travolta... Pass it on
Love the idea of GLTAS in the DCAU
