@@jockeyfield1954 he’s a jerk all of the time and that’s his entire personality. You could literally replace him with Booster Gold and have a better character
Guy's rage is actually brought about one of my favorite GL moments. tl;dr, The Green Lantern Corp is driven crazy by Parallax being placed in the GL Power Battery again, and Hal, John, Guy, and Kyle save them by using rings from other corps. Guy gets a Red AND a Violet ring and with a shout of "I love my Corp and no one is taking them away from me!" and shatters the Power Battery, saving the day, which is *so cool and no one else in comics can channel Rage and Love like that Guy Gardner is badass as hell*
He also goes back to the red lanterns later. Initially its a spy mission but Atrocitus pissed off Guy so much he went "Fuck the mission im beating his ass" and then proceeded to actually do that and take over the red lanterns turning them into a force for good. Keep in mind he did this within the first hour of his mission.
Fun fact Jon Stuart is one of the most powerful green lanterns because he is an engineer and he thinks those constructs the most and they are some of the most powerful because of that
That description of Guy Gardner is so on point. He’s such an asshole, but I love the guy. I can’t imagine GL comics without Guy being a jerk with a heart of gold.
Same. It’s a paradox. Despite the fact that he’s a prick, his character is such a constant pillar of the DCU that I couldn’t imagine it without him, and thus I love his character. It’s weird but I just find his jerkiness great and funny
Also Kyle got possessed by a Willpower Whale, became a literal god for a while, before eventually learning how to control each of the emotional rings, becoming the first ever true White Lantern before retiring to become Space Jesus at the end of Geoff Johns run. And that’s why Kyle is my favorite lantern.

Fun fact. Alan was a founding member of the justice society of America and has two children of his own named Jennifer Lynn Hayden and Todd Rice aka Jade and Osbidoan. He also had and still has a good friendly relationship with the original Flash Jay Garrick who was also a founding member of the jsa. He even married one of his former enemies Molly Mayne aka Harlequin and is still lovelny married to her too this day. Alan had many other enemies as well many of whom joined the injustice society such as Gambler, Icicle, Sportsmaster, Solomon Grundy who of course is also an enemy of Batman, and Vandal Savage. While Gambler and Icicle are both dead Sportsmaster, Solomon Grundy, and Vandal Savage are still alive.

I don’t think It’s really totally about race though, because he didn’t get good character development in the first place. It’s the same with Grant Morrison’s n52 Superman, he just wasn’t well written, and it made him suck. However, Rebirth Superman has been an improvement, as was Jon Stewart once the writers switched.
Actually Guy Gardner did get better in the New 52 when he became a Red Lantern and his pissed off jerk attitude fit perfectly. The Red Lanterns also had their own series that was pretty solid, it was at least better than New52 GL New Gaurdians featuring Kyle Rayner.
@@solvemproblerstudios5889 Disagree with your comment about Morrison's characterization of Superman. Grant Morrison tends to take great influence from the Silver Age-- just look at Bat-Mite or the Batman of Zur En Arrh. It's a general motif in his writing, even more so than deliberately writing batshit crazy stories that are trying to make your brain explode. He's even doing it now with The Green Lantern. So when Morrison was trying to figure out what kind of Superman he wanted to write, he looked towards the Silver Age which is primarily where this characterization of Superman is drawn from. For a large part of the Silver Age, Superman was Superboy. He visited the Legion of Superheroes, raced across the cosmos with unfathomable power, and was generally a kid. This is where Morrison's Superman comes from. Now let's make something clear: Morrison's Superman was *not* Geoff John's Superman The Superman Geoff Johns created in the pages of Justice League does not draw from the Silver Age or even Morrison's. This Superman was moodier, with a quick temper. I consider Johns' work on Justice League to be some of his worst (which isn't to say he's a bad writer he isn't), and his characterization of Superman is very telling in that regard. The Darkseid War in particular was lackluster. I had also just come off of reading a shit ton of ridiculously excellent indie titles when I finally finished his run of JL, so that probably had something to do with it too.
Echo Empire Ok. Fair enough. Just last week I read Morrison’s new 52 Superman and the man of steel, and I just... didn’t get it. I had no Idea what was going on half the time, Clark was either a semi cocky, confident kid at times, reminding me of Peter Parker or something, or a jerk and suddenly he’d be Christopher Reeve every once and a while. He just seemed a bit erratic to me.
“First Lesbian Lantern” Ok I’m no comics expert, I only knew about Hal, John, and Guy, but I’ve seen those big double pages of the whole Green Lantern Corp, and there’s squirrels, squids, a living virus, a person that’s a living volcano, several humanoid aliens, a thing that’s just a ball, and other things. Within the entirety of that crew none of those random life forms had an attraction to the same sex? Statistically there’s gotta be at least one!
@@evanoconnor9242 yup! Also Hal’s writer for a long time has insinuated that Hal is pan and it’s been implied that Hal and John Constantine have slept together before. Wish it’d start being *text* instead of subtext one day.
Kyle was my favorite because he seemed to be the most imaginative with his constructs. Plus his first run was interesting since unlike the others he didn't have the Guardians or any other lanterns to guide him. He had to figure all of the superhero stuff out for himself.
@@BaronSengir1008 The idea was okay but all that stuff about the Guardians erasing all life in the universe as an art project or that they altered probability to cause the appearance of superheroes really killed the story for me.
Yeah I LOVED how creative Kyle got, PLUS his Original Suit was SO COOL compared to the Standard GL uniform which is kind of boring. Not to mention it was VERY interesting to see him think Outside The Box, because he was NEVER trained on "THIS here is the ONLY acceptible way to deal with this", which actually let him surprise Sinestro who was like "WTF?! That is NOT how you're supposed to DEAL with this!!"
Hal: What's your deal? Guy: I'm angry and I'm a jerk all the time, that's what! John: I'm a black man written by white men in an awkward transitional period for comic book writing in the 1970's. But I'll get better soon. Guy: I won't. And that's what's great about me. Lol... gotta love Guy
Two mistakes I'd like to point out: the rings go on the middle finger, NOT the ring finger, and Sinestro is left handed, NOT right handed, so his ring should be on his left hand.
no, not the LGBTQ+ community, you're talking about those people on twitter that call themselves LGBTQ+ when they're really just extremely angry gay people that hate straight people
@@namhaipurevdorj4453 No, he already went back to being just Green. The events of Doomsday Clock were probably the cause but his ring broke onto seven different rings of every color. Last time I saw him he was with the Titans, but that book also ended.
Can we just mention how the rings somehow chose our planet 7 times in a row? Green lantern sectors r huge there are definitely some other aliens better than us But on top of that not only did it happen 7 times in a row but it was the same country 7 times in a row, what are the odds that a ring would arrive on a planet in the exact same spot as 6 others before it (Maybe discount the first one bc he built his)
Six. Alan is only an Honorary Member of the Corps and Sojourner is What-If/In the Future/Totally not Canon. Moreover now there are 2 Lanterns per Sector and the other 4 are part of the Honor Guard, meaning the go wherever and do whatever. Also John is now Corps Leader, fun fact
sorry , but Jessica is not angst at all. Jessica suffers from agoraphobia , a consequence of her PTSD , resulted in loosing all of her friends at that night while she watches. She actually have a realitic mental issue , documented to several crime witnesses , with her actually going into therapy. The one that is angst is definitly Batman...instead of going to therapy and improving Gotham as Bruce Wayne , he looses all of his teenage years training , just to dress in black and beating criminals , while shouting "I am vengeance , I am the night"
@@edgardomendez1703 my guy I only said nerd as a joke, I myself am a bigger nerd than anyone here, and whoever made this comment was dissing the Batman. That’s unacceptable.
Love this, and your style. I thought this was brand new and was sobered to realized that it's two years old but still exactly describes the state of all these characters today.
The first one really only on Earth 2 and the reason for why that happened was because the JSA were not allowed on Prime Earth in the New 52. Meaning that Alan Scotts gay son got erased from existence (oh and surprised he was under utalized as comics tend to do which is really annoying) and well they figured they could off set that by making him gay.
@@xo-1320 That's why I said "now". In fact, he's still the father of Obsidian and Jade (they appear at the end of Doomsday Clock). So, he was probably a gay man that had to pretend to be straight because 40's.
Gods Iove every lantern. Is there anything better than these 7 having to follow orders from a squirrel to stop a cat from destroying a planet, and then a golden retriever shows up and saves the day?
I love these short but informative videos so insanely impressive. As a avid comic reader green lanterns have always been so dope for me because Alan Scott is so different with the othes where as his is more mysticism and what not and Kyle Rayner has to be my favorite he made a mech suit construct and a literal dragon. Usually Hal even though he beat like the embodiment of will or whatever usually just uses like missles,guns,planes,boxing gloves etc lol and when there was that yellow room and that dude wore all yellow and he literally couldnt do anything was hilarious.
I actually like the idea of hal becoming paralax a lot. Like some shit so bad happens to a hero that they just snap and become a bad guy was a pretty new concept. Kinda like how marvel had a captain marvel who had his life cut short by cancer.
Alright, comment time: 1. Haven't read Justice League Odyssey, but Jessica Cruz taking on Darkseid sounds badass. 2. John Stewart's definitely one of my favorites. Justice League for the win! 3. Guardians of the Universe! Idiots or villains? You decide!
JLO is really good...for the first 10 issues, now it's kinda eh. Really slow. Also they killed my girl Starfire in a super dumb way. >: < still ticked.
Except Guy did during his Warrior run by Beau Smith. When Beau gave him the Warrior powers he used it as an opportunity to heal Guy's brain damage. Thus making him a much more stable and likable character. He mended many fences with the DC Heroes during this time frame [even considered Supermann one of his best friends at one point.] He was a great character until that hack Geoff Johns undid everything to bring back the 80s.
See, in my DC headcanon, Hal, John, Jessica, and Allan are all still Green, Guy's still a Red, and Kyle's still the White Lantern, so all these guys are cool in my book, even Guy
They also tried to make a Green Lantern movie but... Deadpool: Yeah, we all know how that turned out >:( But at least John Stewart got a good portrayal in the tv series.
Ricardo Hoàng Agreed, I’ve found that from a writing perspective Jon just clicks more outside of comic in the modern day than Hal who has really only ever worked in throwback settings in terms of it having to be Hal.

It's a general motif in his writing, even more so than deliberately writing batshit crazy stories that are trying to make your brain explode. He's even doing it now with The Green Lantern. So when Morrison was trying to figure out what kind of Superman he wanted to write, he looked towards the Silver Age which is primarily where this characterization of Superman is drawn from. For a large part of the Silver Age, Superman was Superboy. He visited the Legion of Superheroes, raced across the cosmos with unfathomable power, and was generally a kid. This is where Morrison's Superman comes from.
Now let's make something clear: Morrison's Superman was *not* Geoff John's Superman The Superman Geoff Johns created in the pages of Justice League does not draw from the Silver Age or even Morrison's. This Superman was moodier, with a quick temper. I consider Johns' work on Justice League to be some of his worst (which isn't to say he's a bad writer he isn't), and his characterization of Superman is very telling in that regard. The Darkseid War in particular was lackluster. I had also just come off of reading a shit ton of ridiculously excellent indie titles when I finally finished his run of JL, so that probably had something to do with it too.
Echo Empire Ok. Fair enough. Just last week I read Morrison’s new 52 Superman and the man of steel, and I just... didn’t get it. I had no Idea what was going on half the time, Clark was either a semi cocky, confident kid at times, reminding me of Peter Parker or something, or a jerk and suddenly he’d be Christopher Reeve every once and a while. He just seemed a bit erratic to me.
Batman: hey,do you need a hug
Jessica: What the hell
“First Lesbian Lantern”
Ok I’m no comics expert, I only knew about Hal, John, and Guy, but I’ve seen those big double pages of the whole Green Lantern Corp, and there’s squirrels, squids, a living virus, a person that’s a living volcano, several humanoid aliens, a thing that’s just a ball, and other things.
Within the entirety of that crew none of those random life forms had an attraction to the same sex? Statistically there’s gotta be at least one!
I don’t know if it counts but isn’t alan scott gay?
He means from Earth.
@@evanoconnor9242 yup! Also Hal’s writer for a long time has insinuated that Hal is pan and it’s been implied that Hal and John Constantine have slept together before. Wish it’d start being *text* instead of subtext one day.
@@emryscaster7332 who? Probably won't.
Kyle was my favorite because he seemed to be the most imaginative with his constructs. Plus his first run was interesting since unlike the others he didn't have the Guardians or any other lanterns to guide him. He had to figure all of the superhero stuff out for himself.
Hero's Quest was a great book in my opinion...
@@BaronSengir1008 The idea was okay but all that stuff about the Guardians erasing all life in the universe as an art project or that they altered probability to cause the appearance of superheroes really killed the story for me.
I remember in the comics he manifested unit one in a fight once with his ring
Yeah I LOVED how creative Kyle got, PLUS his Original Suit was SO COOL compared to the Standard GL uniform which is kind of boring.
Not to mention it was VERY interesting to see him think Outside The Box, because he was NEVER trained on "THIS here is the ONLY acceptible way to deal with this", which actually let him surprise Sinestro who was like "WTF?! That is NOT how you're supposed to DEAL with this!!"
Well he was an artist so here's that.
Hal: What's your deal?
Guy: I'm angry and I'm a jerk all the time, that's what!
John: I'm a black man written by white men in an awkward transitional period for comic book writing in the 1970's. But I'll get better soon.
Guy: I won't. And that's what's great about me.
Lol... gotta love Guy
@riftgamer25 all of them mustve been deleted
It's like you just need common sense and basic understanding of a culture to write a character who doesn't share you skin colour or something
@@motivated2473yeah crazy how many white people seem to lack that ability
Two mistakes I'd like to point out: the rings go on the middle finger, NOT the ring finger, and Sinestro is left handed, NOT right handed, so his ring should be on his left hand.
Yea, seeing the lantern ring on the ring finger looks off to me after seeing it on the middle everywere else

And Simon is this a good character that really needs more it the spotlight.
So. Nise
I mean white lantern am i right boys
Now he's the white lantern
@@namhaipurevdorj4453 No, he already went back to being just Green. The events of Doomsday Clock were probably the cause but his ring broke onto seven different rings of every color. Last time I saw him he was with the Titans, but that book also ended.

steviesaidyup The Comics seem to be doing a good job of that on their own
Can we just mention how the rings somehow chose our planet 7 times in a row? Green lantern sectors r huge there are definitely some other aliens better than us
But on top of that not only did it happen 7 times in a row but it was the same country 7 times in a row, what are the odds that a ring would arrive on a planet in the exact same spot as 6 others before it
(Maybe discount the first one bc he built his)

One sector can have only one Lantern.

Six. Alan is only an Honorary Member of the Corps and Sojourner is What-If/In the Future/Totally not Canon. Moreover now there are 2 Lanterns per Sector and the other 4 are part of the Honor Guard, meaning the go wherever and do whatever. Also John is now Corps Leader, fun fact
Earth’s a problem child.
@@mcknightmareb4u494 well Sojourner wasn't chosen right? I thought she just made something, so she wasn't a real lantern.
In reality other planets can have many Lanterns as well.

Jessica Cruz: "Oh yeah? Don't pretend you get me and my teenaged angst! Did criminals ever kill someone close to YOU?"

sorry , but Jessica is not angst at all.
Jessica suffers from agoraphobia , a consequence of her PTSD , resulted in loosing all of her friends at that night while she watches.
She actually have a realitic mental issue , documented to several crime witnesses , with her actually going into therapy.
The one that is angst is definitly Batman...instead of going to therapy and improving Gotham as Bruce Wayne , he looses all of his teenage years training , just to dress in black and beating criminals , while shouting "I am vengeance , I am the night"

@Gary Stu He's gay (or at least bi) in Earth-0 now, not only on Earth 2. Maybe he always was, but you know... the forties.
@@7felipe14 No actually he was straight. His son was gay. The whole New 52 reboot thing erased his son and well... they made him gay instead.
The first one really only on Earth 2 and the reason for why that happened was because the JSA were not allowed on Prime Earth in the New 52. Meaning that Alan Scotts gay son got erased from existence (oh and surprised he was under utalized as comics tend to do which is really annoying) and well they figured they could off set that by making him gay.
@@xo-1320 That's why I said "now". In fact, he's still the father of Obsidian and Jade (they appear at the end of Doomsday Clock). So, he was probably a gay man that had to pretend to be straight because 40's.

I love these short but informative videos so insanely impressive. As a avid comic reader green lanterns have always been so dope for me because Alan Scott is so different with the othes where as his is more mysticism and what not and Kyle Rayner has to be my favorite he made a mech suit construct and a literal dragon. Usually Hal even though he beat like the embodiment of will or whatever usually just uses like missles,guns,planes,boxing gloves etc lol and when there was that yellow room and that dude wore all yellow and he literally couldnt do anything was hilarious.
I actually like the idea of hal becoming paralax a lot. Like some shit so bad happens to a hero that they just snap and become a bad guy was a pretty new concept.
Kinda like how marvel had a captain marvel who had his life cut short by cancer.
It is literally impossible to give Ganthet a funnier first line to Kyle than he got in the comics. "You will have to do."
and from what i recall man was straight up _scowling_ too lol, man had no faith

Wow this is a really good overview. Love the animation
I also like Casually Comics too.
This was really good! I hope you do the Red Lanterns at some point!
Alright, comment time:
1. Haven't read Justice League Odyssey, but Jessica Cruz taking on Darkseid sounds badass.
2. John Stewart's definitely one of my favorites. Justice League for the win!
3. Guardians of the Universe! Idiots or villains? You decide!
1.She is. Dex-Starr's also there
The Guardians are both.
The Guardians' first attempt at heroes, the Manhunters, destroyed civilizations, so......yeah.
@Will N I almost forgot about them thanks for the reminder.
JLO is really good...for the first 10 issues, now it's kinda eh. Really slow.
Also they killed my girl Starfire in a super dumb way. >: < still ticked.
all these Green Lanterns using the ring in the wrong finger is giving me OCD.
Okay good I'm not the only one!
Sinestro is left handed and his ring is on the wrong hand!! OCD enrage!!
I was thinking that they got everything else so right but put the rings on the wrong finger? It had to be on purpose.
Right??? I thought I was the only one!
Did not get everything right. Guy Gardner was the rings first choice before Hal Jordan, Hal was closer.

Nice break down of each green lantern I really enjoyed this video
Jon: "I get bettter soon"
Guy: "But I won't!"
Except Guy did during his Warrior run by Beau Smith. When Beau gave him the Warrior powers he used it as an opportunity to heal Guy's brain damage. Thus making him a much more stable and likable character. He mended many fences with the DC Heroes during this time frame [even considered Supermann one of his best friends at one point.] He was a great character until that hack Geoff Johns undid everything to bring back the 80s.
