Who is the best Lantern and why is it Alan?

It's the cape.

The outfit is AMAZING. People who make fun of his costume are retarded.

Thats not saint walker or guy gardener

Hal is my favorite but I can still acknowledge that Alan a best
>>
>>82502689
Nah, it's the purple mask.
>>
>>82502795
its an outfit that shouldn't work but does
>>
He's pretty much a Randian hero without all the douchey bits.
>>
>>82502795
I don't like it when artists get rid of the purple. Without it he just looks like a Christmas decoration.
>>
>>82503195
This is very true. I like his original costume the most.
>>
>>82502860

the gay version of Hal Jordan is best

Reminder.
But it's written by Geoff so it might be a fanboy move.

Hal is so sexy, from his giddy attitude to his weirdly feminine outfit.
I want to cum on his smile.

The best Green Lantern will always be a debate.

However, we can say with utter certainty that Kyle is objectively the worst.

There is no debate. It's Guy Gardener

That's what makes him so sexy.

Hal is a fucking retard sometimes but it's part of why I like reading about him. I kinda like stupid heroes.

I can understand the appeal. I always thought he is DC's cyclops in that regard.

Let's formulate it differently. Who has greater will power and why is it Hal?
>>
>>82502795
The only costume of Alan's that deserves to be made fun of was when he was dressed as a literal lantern.

I really fucking hate the one he's got in Earth 2 right now but Actual Lantern Alan Scott is definitely uglier

I like Alan's thought process behind his original costume

I think this is the only redesign of the costume I have ever liked.

Would have liked to have seen where Scott would have taken her E2 costume tho if they were gonna update it

Alans logo really needs an update.

The Literal Lantern costume must have been made because he thought the original wasn't bizarre enough

Jay/Hunter did, why wouldn't he?
Unless they're saving it for LoT S2

No competition.

Hal the golden boy.
Kyle the literal Mary Sue.
The other 3 guys that are completely irrelevant.

That leaves Alan, the only one worth knowing.

That one was good, but the Ion series itself was just ugly Tocchini art that erased the cool Lantern logo that was originally on the chest.

After they simplified the logo, it ended looking more like a bell most of the time, and Kyle isn't blind enough to hang out with Rot Lop Fan that much.
>>
>>82507806

"Hate" isn't really the right word. "Unnerved by" maybe, considering they were the ones that banished the Chaos magic that makes up the Starheart in the first place
>>
>>82507740
alan is pretty awesome but they turned him into a faggot.

the rest are a nigger, west coaster (faggot), and a weeb.

the only one that isn't unbearable is Guy gardner, the greatest green lantern.

He had like five years to give his son a hug.

Objective rating:
Guy>Alan>Kyle>John>Hal
everybody else is irrelevant

Guy is too divisive to really be best lantern.

Alan was pure willpower way before Hal. That was the explanation for why Alan never aged. He was bonded to the Starheart for so damn long that his body literally became the Green Flame.
>>
>>82511651
Bullshit, the original reason he wasn't aging was because he got thrown into Limbo. Him and the rest of the JSA got slowed aging from that. Starheart was established later on in Gerard Jones' run.
>>
>>82511897
he also get deaged after they got out of Limbo, that's when they started rolling with the "he's made of Starheart" wasn't it?
>>
>>82512181
Just a little afterwards. Right when Green Lantern Corps Quarterly started was when Alan started going by Starheart.
>>
>>82511897
The Limbo stuff eventually got removed or retconned and later it was brought up that Alan's body was made of Green Flame and his aged appearance is only because he believes he should look like that.

>>82512210
>Alan started going by Starheart.
You mean Sentinel?
>>
>>82512231
>You mean Sentinel?

Ye, I brainfarted. That retcon didn't really gain traction until Johns' JSA which was much later and by that point Kyle had already been Ion so he got beaten to the punch on that one.
>>
>>82512289
Eh, just because it didn't gain traction until later doesn't mean it wasn't established earlier.
>>
>>82502625
He's responsible for one of the hottest comic hotties to ever hot. Even Alan's balls are BASED.
