>Beware Your Fears Made Into Light...
It's a bit earlier than that time of the week. /co/.
But we're going to be running through it all anyway.
And in good time for October as well, spooks and all.
So here we go, the first big break of the Johns Era GL...
This is-
Green Lantern: The Sinestro Corps War
And here we go... with ol thin-stache himself...
>>66076423
Adore this scene and was HYPED AS FUCK at Strong being Sinestro...and then the movie came out and it was fucking nothing.
That's the stuff.
When they get to Earth it feels like a completely different event
>>66076498
Strong as Sinestro was aces... but they gave him nothing to do.
>>66076528
Completely agree.
>>66076372
awww yeah I made it home just in time for this
>>66076568
Glad to have you on board!
The best event. Good job, op,.
>>66076661I really, really love Forever Evil too
>>66076686
Are you me?
Oh yeah... this is it...
>>66076708
I dunno. Are you anxiously hoping they announce an omnibus soon?
>>66076731
HIT THE DECK
>>66076748
You are not me.
>>66076748
Not that guy, but I am!
I caved and got the FE hc and Rogues trade, but... an omni would be very nice
>>66076372
AWESOME
>>66076780
Ahh, well.
>>66076786
I'm staunchly waiting for an omni. FE was better than the sum of it's parts. So all of the parts need to be in order before I plunk down the cash.
Yeah. Nice one Guy.
>>66076872
>heh
PANIC
That's a sad story, Kyle.
>>66076616
That was a good page
PANIC indeed.
So phallic.
>>66076950
whoops
>>66076905
Wu-Tang is for the children
I heard that you can spot Bizarro Hal somewhere in this event.
Let's keep an eye out.
>>66076991
Gosh dangit... haha
>>66077005
I saw him die at some point.
Will you be doing Peter Tomasi's GLC run as well or just the Johns stuff? Obviously not including the crossovers like SCW.
>>66077005
I know you can find a Xenomoprh and Predator
Dropped left and right
>>66077034
Then let's DEFINITELY keep an eye out.
>>66076872
Kek
>>66077064
Well...
The ONLY TIME I will be doing ONLY JOHNS is when we hit NEW 52.
Because when we reach that it's just a hassle, so only Johns then.
>>66077041
Uh oh
>>66077116
Sweet, been meaning to re-read Tomasi's GLC plus the stuff I missed when I stopped reading. Maybe this'll get me back into GL.
Always thought Tomasi and Patrick Gleason's GLC were understated. Sure Johns was in the reins with GL, but GLC was a great freaking book.
>>66077243
is GL kill?
Oh...oh fuck...
>>66077241
It really is. I've been running GLC alongside GL for the past couple weeks.
>>66076979
The bottom panel has been my mental image for the Sinestro Corps ever since I read it years ago. Too bad I'll never see it adapted for a movie.
>To instill FEAR
>Is to instill ORDER
Chill erry tiem
Also Godhead is looking pretty awesome so far.
>>66077297
FUUUUUCK
>>66077297
FUCK
>>66077311
>Also Godhead is looking pretty awesome so far.
it's off to an interesting start, I hope it's good overall
Holy hell... fucking hell.
>>66077297
Then thank you, Dave.
>>66077357
shiiiiit
>>66077357
That's pretty messed up
I'm not going to comment on Godhead since I found the start pretty meh.
>>66077357
Space whale ;A;
>>66077385
I hate all of Johns retcons of 90s GL but this was an amazing page. It's only topped by hat's coming up
>Sinestro does nothing wrong
>banished to the anitmatter universe
>Jordan murders his fellow Lanterns
>Guardians line up to suck his dick
Oh damn!
>>66077385
>>66077423
>>66077455
oh god oh god oh god
>he has to buy a 4chan pass if he posts more than 500 times in 24 hours
>>66077455
>green Parallax
Always bugged the shit out of me, although I know why it's like that.
Love that it's a nod to his first costume though. 90's Rayner is best Rayner.
>>66077357
I'm surprised he didn't rip off his limbs and leave him in the vacuum of space.
AWWWWW NUTS.
>>66077477
I got one AGES AGO... back when I storytimed my Forever Evil edit.
>>66077369
Yeah, it feels just the right scale for a truly epic event it's trying to portray. Hopefully it won't shit itself
>>66077423
Why, Dave-kun?
>>66077500
>90's Rayner is best Rayner.
Quoted for truth
>>66077476
Get hype
I'm pretty sure Ion's supposed to be a Green lanternshark. That is actually a thing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_lanternshark
>>66077523
IT'S PRIME TIME!
>>66077455
AW SHIT SON
>>66077005
>>66077020
>>66077041
God damn, Kyle has *the worst* luck.
>>66077500
I like green parallax more, but Sinestro's shiny gold parallax is nice too
>Love that it's a nod to his first costume though. 90's Rayner is best Rayner.
I'm more partial to the gay biker outfit but his first one was pretty sweet
>>66077522
this isn't Injustice
>>66077527
>Quoted for truth
Feel bad that I almost misspelled his name there as "Raynor" for a second.
I should know this shit, dammit!
And for a small story...
>>66077527
A lot of parts just felt very janky, New Gods are too serious for my tastes. and while they shared a lot of page space... there NEEDS to be an actual Orion/Lightray moment.
Only really looking forward to Forever People.
Hey Dave, are you doing the tie-in one-shots? Sinestro Corps: Parallax, Sinestro Corps: Cyborg Superman and so on?
>>66077523
GL made me love Hank Henshaw. I don't know why.
>>66077523
SHIT
>>66077529
that is wonderful
>>66076506
Sinestro looks like Hitler but without the little mustache
>>66077594
Yes. Doing this right.
>>66077606
I love all the Replacement Supermen.
>>66077527
>Yeah, it feels just the right scale for a truly epic event it's trying to portray. Hopefully it won't shit itself
I'm curious what it's going to be ABOUT now since they already got all the rings, I wasn't expecting that to happenalso I'm kind of worried for Hal
>>66077574
Nigga, Rayner is Peter Parker with a power ring.
Shit, people say Asami is suffering, they don't know shit about my boy Kyle.
>>66077580
Sinestro's shiny gold/yellow Parallax was much better, yes.
I really like all of Kyle's outfits. They're really good and usually fit his character pretty damn well. Think I may like his third one the best though, idk.
>>66077630
Mahnke draws him even more Hitler-y
Eaglesham's Sinestro, though... goddamn
>>66077637
Started reading comics with this run so him and Superboy prime were my first experience with the replacements. Hank is my husbando.
>>66077662
oh Hal you're precious
>>66077692
For me it's BIBBO AND ERADICATOR ALL THE WAY.
Also, Superboy Prime ISN'T a Replacement Superman. 90's Superboy was.
>>66077606
Because he's moe
>>66077742
Right yeah. My mistake.
Yes, yes he will.
>>66077592
>A lot of parts just felt very janky, New Gods are too serious for my tastes.
I guess I can understand this. I'm probably going to pick up a floppy of the first issue though. dat art
>>66077661
Cute New Gods doing cute New things?
>>66077529
>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_lanternshark
He has a green lantern hanging off his mouth like the lantern fish from the deep
Part 2:
wherein there's a blowback
>>66077768
Man... those five could have been a team book.
>>66077772
One of these days we're going to have to see a full version of Johns' interpretation of Sinestro's fall from grace. I'm betting it'd be sweet.
>>66077795
>Cute New Gods doing cute New things?
I hope!
and Lightray and Orion doing shit with Hal and Sinestro sounds dope
>>66077297
FUCK
>>66077795
I love the New Gods, I have the four omnibuses... but this is such a disparity and it's just.... no.
>>66077806
What about new 52 Cyborg Supes. Is he any good?
>>66077886
He's Zor-el rather than Hank Henshaw
he's not as moe
>>66077886
I say... no. I think he's a giant bore.
>evil moe Reed Richards
Wait a second...
>>66077357
>>66077369
So fucking good. So gooood.
>>66077850
>but this is such a disparity and it's just.... no.
It's just an Imaginary Story, Dave
>>66077886
Not really
>whacky ol' uncle Superman who is evil cybrog
>>66077894
I still like the "Hal created the fearbug during Zero Hour" theory
>>66077904
>>66077927
>>66077945
That's disappointing.
>>66077945
Yeah. And it's one that I don't care for... at all.
Except for Forever People. Didio/Giffen are ON IT.
>>66077927
Oh hey, it's GREEN MAN behind Hal!
Yes, that's his name.
GREEN MAN
>>66077959
It's hilarious how Laira's hotness got toned down by a lot and Boodika changed from a moderately unattractive musclegirl to a generic pink alien girl
>>66077996
>>66078020
>you will never rub Sayd's voluptuous head
;;;_;;;
That's all they can do...
This has been a roller coaster from page one
>>66078046
Karu-Sil's story was actually pretty sad
>>66078098
>We will hope
FORESHADOWING ALERT
>>66078082
He's only attractive because he stands around next to all those hideous corps members. Its the fat best friend law at work.
>>66078151
Shhh.
That ruins the fun.
>>66078166
Sayd is a beautiful lady guardian, excuse you
That's just....really mean.
Like,
Really really really mean.
So mean.
Poor Hal.
>>66078202
Fuck this is something that was reinforced in the cartoon and I still get it wrong.
you think Johns was a member of HEAT?
That isn't good.
>>66077592
Lyssa Drax <3 <3
>>66078292
sorry Kyle but Hal's Parallax costume is as sexy as costumes get
>>66078292
Ivan Reis is such a good fucking artist man, holy shit.
Part 3:
wherein the story of Korugar begins anew.
>>66078348
Sinestro looks so thrilled
>>66078315
I'm interested in how much different this story would have been if they kept the "Parallax possesses John and Guy too" angle
>>66078319
I'm honestly surprised that she's still alive and relevant in the nu52. I think the only other prominent SC still alive after all this besides her and Sinestro is Arkillo
>>66078387
>I'm honestly surprised that she's still alive and relevant in the nu52. I think the only other prominent SC still alive after all this besides her and Sinestro is Arkillo
I'm surprised she managed to get even hotter, dayum
Bad day bad day bad day!
>>66078472
OH FUCK
>>66078423
>>66078452
I love Soranik Natu.
Best Rayner love interest too, plus the whole, "Sinestro is her dad," angle.
>>66078472
In all his majesty.
>>66078472
#SwagnestroWhat he does to her in this issue is such delightful assholery
Robo's made of tougher stuff.
>>66078492
AW SHIT!
>>66078511
>>66078535
For those of you who missed the last thread and are wondering what the fuck happened here, Green Man was temporarily infected with Yellow mind control spores and tried to kill Stel shortly before the Sinestro Corps War started.
>>66078535
Am I the only one who sees "corps" and pronounces it like "corpse"?
>>66078493
I always wondered why they dropped Kyle and Soranik so hard
>>66078634
You're not the only one, but it's wrong and you should stop
>>66078046
Karu-Sil: Would you?
>>66078555
>>66078578
>badass Sinestro
Yesssss. I remember always wanting to see Sinestro as the badass that he was. I always hated him as just yet another typical supervillain more or less with his appearances in the DCAU and other shows since he always had so much potential.
So glad Johns did this.
>>66078640
Wait when did they do that?
>>66078634
In my head all the time, out loud never. My brother wont even let me say solder instead of sAHder.
>>66078719
She has no lips!
>>66078733
>Wait when did they do that?
They haven't been together in the new 52 at all and now Kyle and Carol are dating while Soranik hangs out with her dad
Korugar, am I right?
>>66078675
I know I should, Anon.
>>66078777
Yeah I have a realfearof making myself look like a dumbass like that by mispronouncing shit.
>>66078811
>>66078839
fucking Korugarians!
>>66078829
What a shame.
Kyle is really okay with handling Hal's sloppy seconds like that?
>>66078863
FUCK YEAH SODAM
>>66078372
See dat ass? I would be too.
>>66078863
My boy Sodom.
Damn, there are so many likeable GLs, it's crazy.
MOGO
MOGO
MOGO
MOGO!
>>66078932
b-but anon...
>>66078952
*Sodam
Shit, it's even right there too.
>>66078387
I am too, but I don't mind.
>>66078419
I don't mind this either.
>>66078952
I love them all
Part 4:
wherein this goes from bad to worse
>>66078493
She's got Kyle's luck, too.
>>66079008
GLC was a fantastic book under Tomasi. He really knew what he was doing.
>>66079096
Hal and his airplanes.
Does he construct airplanes just as often as he constructs fists orjust punches his enemies?
>>66079108
not even just GLC, there's very little GL material/characters overall that I don't like
>>66079186
he loves planes more than anything
the green jobber corps. Wielders of the strongest weapon in the universe
>>66079274
dat ass
>>66078578
That green lantern statue was the girl after Sinestro right?
How did she die?
>>66079008
Whore
>>66079297
Katma Tui? Star Sapphire murdered her
>>66078829
They dropped Kyle/Soranik because Sinestro was becoming a Green Lantern and Johns didn't want to deal with the implications that had for her for some reason.
>>66079340
makes sense I guess, it did seem weird they never showed her reaction to that
Bats and centipedes fucking Sinestro corps
>>66078962
FUCK
>>66079365
She's pushed into the background after they break up for pretty much the entire rest of Johns' run. It was annoying as fuck really.
>>66079417
yeah that was a shame
I'm glad she's in Sinestro's book at least
Hey!
>>66079384
I see Kryb in the background there.
Also Sluush and a Xenomorph Corpsman.
>>66078719
All day, every day, every way.
>>66079442
My boy SBP just waiting...
>>66079446
Kryb is such a wonderfully creepy villain. Can't wait until we get to her arc in GLC.
>>66079442
mai villainbando
>>66079442
The fact that Prime-Time's armor keeps changing throughout the story triggers my autism
>>66079546
Graf is such a fucking bro man, I love it.
>>66079566
THE FACE
INCOMING DED LANTERNS
>>66079384
>lethal force not allowed!
booblantern punching through the chest of some gy
SO who wants the bad guys to win?
>>66079587
>Boodika
>that name
>that revealing clothing
Could never take that seriously, sorry.
>>66079607
>even the ring is tired of Boodika's bullshit
>>66079607
JOHNS OF MURDER
It's kind of sad that he basically had a self-insert kill a 90s lantern because NOT MUH GL
Johns actually hates 90s GLs a lot
>>66079566
AAAHHHHH
>>66079635
90s Boodika had more revealing clothing but she looked kinda mannish
>>66079643
>Johns actually hates 90s GLs a lot
does he? aside from the obvious parallax stuff I never really got that impression
>>66079636
>>66079685
Remember when she was bad in Green Lantern: First Flight?
That was out of nowhere. And she got that horrifying death, too.
That was First Flight, right?
>>66079718
Yes
>>66079635
she used to look like this
http://imgur.com/wiYYyIi
and Boudica was a warrior queen, it fits
I never liked Sodam he seemed like a dick and not a lovable dick like Guy
Alright, slight intermission... but I'll be back and then we'll run through the rest ASAP.
>>66079738
hnggg lyssa pls
>>66079710
Yeah as much as I love this event, the sometimes lack of consistency bugs the fucking hell out of me.
Like, Ranx looks nothing like he does everywhere else here.
>>66079738
Damn I would hit that pretty hard, not gonna lie.
>>66079761
Jesus fucking Christ, what an ugly bitch.
>>66079738
According to the trades Johns was going to have Guy and John here possessed by Parallax. He eventually decided that "Parallax possession should be special" and that it would detract from Kyle getting possessed. So kudos to Geoff for deciding not to do something that seemed cool for once.
>>66079738
Hmmmmmm sorry what ? you were say........ing something ....uhhhhhhh
>>66079816
>>66079815
She's the same species as Shadow Lass from the Legion of Super-Heroes, a character who somehow manages to wear even fewer clothes.
>>66079711Hakaan& Jack Chance are killedLairabecomes a Red Lantern the diesBoodikabecomes an Alpha, goes full facist, and then dies
He specifically chooses this subset of Lantern from 90s for some reason to do horrible things to
>>66079718
First Flight was one helluva ride
>>66079738
That shit-tier shading ruins a lot of the sexiness of Lyssa-Lyssa-sensei
DD, you're the realest.
>>66079738
HNNNNNG HNNNNNNG
>>66079853
>He specifically chooses this subset of Lantern from 90s for some reason to do horrible things to
but he also brought them all back to begin with since most of them were considered dead or absent and even though bad stuff happened to them it didn't really come off like a personal vendetta to me
>>66079852
No shit? Huh, that makes sense.
>>66079853
>Lairabecomes a Red Lantern the dies
See, I actually really liked her so that happening always bugged the fucking hell out of me.
Did make for some good-ish drama though, not gonna lie.
>>66079853
>First Flight was one helluva ride
It was okay. Liked some parts of it, but it didn't wow me. Fight scene at the end was good though.
>>66079954
Yeah, the Secret Files and Origins gave her home planet as the same one. I don't think we ever see her use shadow powers though.
