    I really wish stuff like this happened and was more permanent. Scarecrow gets a Yellow Lantern ring, makes sense in Batman and Green Lantern mythos and makes the comics feel more whole and connected. Maybe Cheetah joins the league of assassins, or Heat Wave and Firefly team up as they're both extremely obsessed with fire.

    Re: Batman as an intimidating presence - I would love to see another Batman movie with just an ounce of humor left in it. Nothing too silly. For example:
    The audience watches obvious but small drug deal go down. Next shot, one of the guys on the corner is in a back alley, smoking a joint. He quickly finishes, turns a corner, and Batman is a few yards back in the shadows but still barely visible. Stoner pauses, makes eye contact with Bats, awkwardly points at himself as if to admit his guilt, and Bats shakes his head without breaking his gaze. Stoner counts his lucky stars as he quietly and swiftly gets the hell out of there. Bats jumps into unrelated action moments later. This scene brought to you by marijuana!
    Keep up the great videos, Rob!

      No argument there. A few years ago I had to give up beer (weird stomach issues) but when I initially thought I had to give up alcohol in general I would seriously walk around muttering "I'll burn Gotham to the ground" under my breath. No alcohol turns me into a super villain. I don't want to think about what no weed would do to me.

It was connected to a villain that was so awful. The creators of the guy just killed him off the first time he appeared. That villain "Penny Pilfer". He only stole pennies. Though after they ran that guy out of existence. The new story. That Penny is connected to Two-Face.

    You missed a very cool idea.
    The Lanterns think Batman's crazy that Sinestro Corps is involved, and believe it's just Scarecrow
    Batman thinks it's not Scarecrow, it's too big for him. It's Sinestro Corps or something similar.
    Truth is they are BOTH right and BOTH wrong, meaning despite they didn't like it, they actually complement each other quite well, building up to the ending.

    Yup, it was only a matter of time before Scarecrow harnessed the ultimate power of fear. I was a bit disappointed however that it came down to such a tawdry motive. You'd think Crane would become one of the most powerful yellow lanterns ever. An arc requiring much lengthier story telling. Then again, even with such power, I doubt he could beat Batman, so maybe it's appropriate it went down like it did.

    What if the actual reason Batman is trying to help Simon is because he's afraid he might become a villain. Think about it he has a green lantern and he's relying on something else for strength. People like that are more likely to blame themselves for something they had a small part in. Which could later in turn influence his change of heart to be a villain

    Simon has the gun just in case his ring loses power on a mission. That happens to Hal all the time and he never has a back up plan. Simon isn't an idiot, he recognizes that the 24 hour time limit is a serious weakness and he's taken a step to insure that he's not caught defenseless. It's not about seeing himself as less capable.

    The best Green Lantern test of will came in the 1980s GL Corp comics. Some Green Lanterns would dive into a yellow star to test their wills. If they're strong they'll come out fine, but if they waiver or weak they would die. It was really cool! Other cool facts is these issue of backstories have Alan Moore as a writer. In one of them is where Blackest Night comes from along with the Red Lanterns planet.

    Simon Baz "this gun is my robin"
    Simon Baz a few pages later - Almost shot with it by alfred.
    Well in a way he wasn't wrong... next time maybe call your gun a specific Robin instead of letting it default to Jason Todd.
    No seriously how about next time we have Batman work with a Wondergirl who carries a Crowbar around as a backup and makes that comparison to his face because that shit was just that disrespectful to Batman. I understand completely why people would hate this guy.

    Well, if I saw Batman staring at me I'd think I'd gone mad or there was a crazy person staring at me.
    If Batman was staring at the DC comics version of me (which is weird to think about), I'd be happy! It's Batman! I'd be like "Yo, waddup B-Man!"

    maybe when when Batman calls on Simon Baz it will be to join the JLA whether as a duel member to it and the regular JL or he maybe quit the Justice League I think he would probably be the best character from Green Lantern to join the JLA
