He's honestly one of the most egregious examples of a geek-fantasy self-insert character.

He goes from random artist to All-Mighty, Galactic Lady-killing Space-Jesus in a very short amount of time, who apparently is the only creative motherfucker with a ring in the entire universe. He was unfortunately the victim of writers trying to make him into too much of a special snowflake.

I mean on one hand I really don't give a damn because a lot of comic readers love that shit, but for some reason Kylefags are so vehement about how their lantern is the best lantern that it's quite off-putting.

Go read some Silver Age stuff with Hal. The guy asspulls his way out of anything and has the respect of the corps as a whole despite not really doing anything important until the late 70's. Then at that point Hal was literally Mr. Fixit for any screw-up the Corps had whether it be Krona rampaging through space or fucking Nekron bringing dead lanterns back to life REAL ORIGINAL JOHNS to siege Oa.

Silver Age is cheating, anon

The only time that really comes to mind in the bronze age where Hal was exalted over the rest of the corps was the first Tales of the Corps mini with Nekron, where he saved everybody's asses and the Guardians offered him a spot in the honor guard and everybody said his oath in honor of him (which he started openly crying at because he was so touched)

If they kept the Power Ring thing it could work, the idea of a green lantern who isn't naturally capable of overcoming great fear and had to learn how to do it the hard way sounds pretty awesome, they could explore the gun thing, hell even make her sympathize with those who run away since she did that at some point, she sure as hell has more potential than Baz

Same shit different character. Hal pulled the same shit when he absorbed all the latent energy in the Central Power Battery and became Parallax. John became a fucking Guardian because Old Timer made him more aware of it when they mind-melded. And Guy became an unkillable morphing Alien man who could make guns for hands and was the prophesied hero of an ancient alien race to bring down their enemies which he did. Everyones done stupid shit, don't try to have a high horse in this argument.

He's got quite a few.

Hard Traveling Heroes 2.0 with Connor, Circle of Fire with Oblivion, The New Corps, Emerald Knights, his quick stint as Ion, Kelly's Obsidian Age, and Last Will and Testament of Hal Jordan even if that's really a Tom Kalmaku story. Just because you're uninformed doesn't mean he doesn't have stuff.

from personal experience i say its because its fun, its fun to come up with a story about a character who gets shit done, sometimes its personal sometimes it isn't, you don't always need to make the story ultra realistic with the character getting fucked but you need to be at least mentally prepared to do that so said character doesn't become your pet

If it happened it would probably be done poorly, but imagine if it was done well.

I'd be picked by either the sinestro corps or the indigo tribe. Does sinestro recruit people who can produce great fear or people who have live through great fear?
>>
>>82872039
>Does sinestro recruit people who can produce great fear or people who have live through great fear?
According to the ring: "You have the ability to instill great fear. Welcome to the Sinestro Corps."
>>
>>82872033
I would want this just to see Sinestro going apeshit and not being able to do anything about it
>>82872039
yellow ring is about embracing fear, acknowledging its power while controlling it, you need to understand fear from both perspectives to properly control it unlike green rings which just require overcoming it

Because he's editorial mandate trash. A "hip" new Lantern to replace the aging Jordan, with godlike powers and the old Parker luck, interested in the same things that are hip with the kids.

He's gotten better since they extricated Hal from the bus he was chucked under to introduce Kyle, but he's still the least compelling Earth Lantern.
>>
>>82872361
Kinda bullshit, tbqh. The Power Ring is more actually feeling Fear powered than sinestro's ring.
>>
>>82872727
power ring is the other side of the coin, overcoming fear will free you from the curse but understanding it allows you to take control over it without removing it, this is why Jessica couldn't remove it before, because even though she was starting to understand how it worked she lacked the willpower to be completely free

Sinestro's ring requires a bit of both, which is why his corps are forced to face their own fears before becoming official members
>>
>>82872703

He had the Ion powers for a whole 3 issues before giving them up so he could reignite the Central Power Battery and give Ganthet some kids so he wouldn't pull an Old Timer. You faggot

I say that because people exaggerate the "God Powers" that Kyle gets. The biggest example of it was being Ion and he had it for less than 3 issues yet people who don't even read his stuff call him a mary sue because of it. You don't hear people getting on Johns case for becoming The Messiah.

>>82875498
He's been a White Lantern for like three years now and everything about it is a special snowflake upgrade that makes every other character want to suck Kyle's dick as hard as they can

>everything about it is a special snowflake upgrade that makes every other character want to suck Kyle's dick as hard as they can

Yea, all those people who thought he was dead for a whole year and a half were sucking his dick pretty hard about being a special snowflake then he comes back for Godhead and literally fucks everything up and Hal saves the day. Now he's with the Omega Men who couldn't give two shits about him other than his power. Like seriously, I don't even know where you're pulling this from.
>>
>>82867669
Nah it's just that since he's working with the omega men and in a somewhat grim mood given the tone of the comic he decided to change his costume (probably won't carry over after the book is over).
>>
>>82875498
>I say that because people exaggerate the "God Powers" that Kyle gets.
Mostly his fans.
"He's best lantern, he's all powerful, no one can beat him cuz he can blow up the sun!"
V3 made a big deal about how speshul and unique he was and gave him almighty power and Kylefags have never let anyone forget it.

80% of v3 was Kyle getting shit talked by his peers because he wasn't Hal Jordan and him getting an inferiority complex because of it. The only person who really accepted him off the bat was Connor because they were in the same boat with dead/deadbeat Fathers.

The arc right after Sinestro Corps War

Thanx anon
>>
>>82875755
The early retcon in New Guardians where he wasn't randomly picked but specially chosen, the white lantern training arc where only Kyle can possibly feel every emotion and only Kyle can be a white lantern, the templar guardians basically leave the GLC so they can hang around Kyle because he's so important, Carol leaves Hal for Kyle for literally no reason, Kyle is super special for being able to refill the reservoir and go through the source wall and get the life equation which literally nobody else can do, even when they think Kyle is dead Hal and John and all the GLs have a little remembrance ceremony about how great Kyle was, Saint Walker who has been hopeless for a year+ is suddenly filled with hope at the mere revelation that Kyle is alive that he gets his ring back, hell the last issue of New Guardians was a bunch of characters showing up to help his ass because he's just so important. Omega Men is the only time in years that he hasn't been fellated at every turn

There's no explanation for any of this shit either , Kyle is just super special and unique and important because reasons

You basically just described captain america on a smaller scale...

There are things that I don't get about the "emotional spectrum":

1. If the Lanterns are supposed to cover the "emotional spectrum," and there are lantern corps for rage, fear, willpower, hope, compassion, love and greed, is there no lantern for happiness? Or sadness, for that matter? Two of the strongest and most common emotions, integral to life itself?

2. "Love" is not a singular emotion, it is a spectrum of emotions unto itself. If you love someone, you can feel happiness when you're around them, fear at the thought of losing them, anger and/or forgiveness if they transgress you, sadness and grief if you lose them. Likewise for greed. You can feel anger at a person for having what you don't, or sadness if you don't have what they have and so on and so forth.
>>
>>82880225
>is there no lantern for happiness? Or sadness, for that matter? Two of the strongest and most common emotions, integral to life itself?
There are a lot of emotions that could work as their own corps, but from a writer's point of view it would be rather silly, lanterns needing to be constantly happy or sad all the time to keep their power, being happy all the time requires positive thinking, which is already covered by hope, being sad all the time would require negative thinking, which is kinda of covered by rage too
>2. "Love" is not a singular emotion [...]
All the emotions interact with each other constantly, back on the blackest night all the black lanterns could see the lantern's emotions inside of them, showing that none of them were always a single color, while they usually focus on one emotion above the other nothing is stopping them from feeling multiple, also love is deeply caring about someone, it doesn't need to be the traditional kind of love two people have with each other, its pure passion, like how Relic was immune to the sapphires because he was in love with existence itself
