Dinah finally makes an honest man out of Ollie
Awww...isn't this just too cute for words?
In the last issue of Green Lantern, Ollie has finally broken down and proposed to Dinah. She hasn't given him an answer yet, and in solicits of Birds of Prey, it is suggested that perhaps Babs tries to talk her out of it. There is also going to be a Black Canary series, which is a good thing.
However, unable to stand the suspense, DC has given us solicits that seem to prove that yes, indeedy, they are getting married. There has been something of a fuss about this, with a lot of people stating that Ollie is a rogue and a scamp and not good enough for her.
This is absolutely true.
On the other hand, I am a complete sap and a sucker for a happy ending, so I am delighted that they are going to be tying the knot. Despite their ups and downs, they have been one of comicdoms most notable pairings...they've been making googoo eyes at each other for a LOOOOONG time. Furthermore, although he can be a bit of a cad, Oliver HAS seemed to settle down a bit lately...and about high time, if you ask me. So yes, I'll be buy ALL the wedding tie-ins and such.
They are even going to have a bachelorette party.
Why who is that flying out of the cake? None other than Superman himself. I wonder if Lois is in attendance, and is he going to start taking his clothes off? Or is he like Captain America, who thought that an Ecdysiast was a magician? And look, Peej and Barbara in the same room as one another! I hope that Ice is invited too, since Fire is there.
Is there going to be a separate book for the Bachelor party? THAT could be interesting if Hal and Roy are in charge of setting up the...entertainment. Heh heh.
I can't help thinking that there is going to be one interesting wedding party, with Mia, Connor, Roy, Lian AND Sin all taking place. They've already got one heck of a family there, it's about time they stopped living in sin and made it all legal. I DO rather hope that they will wear tuxes and party dresses instead of their costumes.

I really, really love that Superman is either:
a) The stripper that they hired (please, please, please let this be true), or
b) The only dude invited to the Bachelorette party.
What, HAL isn't the one coming out of the cake? Rats! ;-)
So, who's going to be Ollie's best man? Hal? Roy? Conner, even? Hmmm ...
The bachelor party is gonna be going on in Countdown and the Bachelorette party is going on in JLA, least that's what the staff told us at the DC Countdown panel yesterday...oh...I also got a sneak peak at Sinestro Corp - 1 Shot-....I think it's safe to say Green Lantern Euphoria could happen for ya. All the Green Lanterns are assembled...."for the last time"...straight from Van Scivers' mouth when I looked at one of the panels and you joke about the Anti-Monitor but...well...he's coming....ok I gotta stop...me no more spoil. You'll enjoy the one-shot though!
I even for the heck of it asked Van Sciver "Well not all the GLs are there, I don't see Jack T. Chance". Crafty artist he is Sciver:Sure he's right there"*points to small Jack T. Chance*
Superman...Superstripper!
Awesome.
Hmmmm...who WOULD be Ollie's best man? I know, Hawkman!
Just kidding. But it would be funny.
LOL! Hawkman -- good one! :-)
It'll probably be Hal. I can see it now: The wedding gets underway and Hal is LATE because he's been in outer space fighting a monster or the Sinestro Corps, or something ... Then he finally shows up and Ollie gives him hell: "I thought of ALL people YOU could be trusted with a RING; but nooooooo ...!"
Ollie, an honest man? Well, at least until a writer comes along and throws something young and sexy in his face and he gives into the power of his penis and "forgets" that he's married for ten minutes, or however long it takes. Then Dinah goes back into the "I can't believe you cheated on me" whiney mode and they fight. Only this time it's worse because they have an adopted daughter around to hear the arguing. Unless Metzler retconned the girl out of existence, which is possible.
It's not that I'm against marriage in comics, it's just that these two seem to have better chemistry together when they're trying to stay apart.
