Why G'not?
Aaahhh...my favorite idiotic Green Lantern. The immortal G'nort Esplenade G'neeesmacher.
For some reason, G'nort doesn't seem to get a whole lot of respect. Part of it, I suppose, is because he's kind of...stupid. He's also a dog. Dressed up in a Green Lantern suit. With a tail. But I have always found G'nort rather heartwarming, which is why I am resolutely refusing to admit the "Collateral Damage" by Howard Chaykin ever happened.
What G'nort has going for him, is that he is unabashedly, completely, totally in love with Guy Gardner...but in a manly sort of doggy way. Afterall, they've fought Qwardians together, Guy got G'nort into the Green Lantern Corps (and gave the Guardians a good chuckle along the way), while G'nort gave Guy is very first bone, Guy has scratched G'nort behind the ears, and sent him off to chase comets. It's kind of sweet really. Hal Jordan should be so lucky. He doesn't have a G'newtian sniffing HIS butt.
G'nort hasn't been around much lately, and it is rather a shame (Collateral Damage does not exist...lalalalalalala I can't hear you!) He's a character that I would LOVE to see Geoff Johns tackle. End result...hilarity!

G'Nort is so 80s. What is that JLI issue where he J'onn and Kilowog have a night on the town? I can't find it right now. Was Kilowog a Lantern then?
Geoff Johns on G'Nort?
End result: dismemberment.
Yeah, you're probably right...dadgummit. Maybe Keith Giffen then?
