White Lantern
So...there is this nice White Lantern, sitting at the bottom of a hole right in the middle of a road, and it's just causing all SORTS of problems. The townspeople would really just like to have it out of there, since it is causing traffic problems, and they have better things to do with their time. Sinestro is peeved, because he couldn't lift it. Hal is stunned because HE couldn't lift it. Carol thinks that it may be like the Sword in the Stone, and can only be lifted by one who is worthy.
Heh.
Well...that lets out the Guardians. And there are plenty of simply fabulous Earth heroes, like Superman or Wonder Woman, but they aren't Lanterns, and I would assume that it is probably more inclined to want a Lantern involved.
There is Deadman of course, who is in possession of the only White Ring, and who seems to be communicating with some sort of entity, which zaps him all over the place. On the other hand, he's invisible, and rather cranky at the moment, so who knows? And if he DID lift it, what on earth would he DO with it?
It's possible that only someone who has experienced ALL of the various emotions embodied by the various Corps would be worthy. And sadly for him, that's not Hal Jordan.
Could be Guy though.
Because that would just crack me up. Kyle would probably be a decent choice as well. It would also be a hoot if it was John. Or B'dge. And I'm sure that Larfleeze would love to have a go at it. Maybe they could trade him the White Lantern for poor Sayd.
I really don't know where Geoff Johns is going to be going with this whole premise, but I can't wait to find out.

I put my money on Atrocius. First, because his name is cool. Second, for all the hints about him being obsesed with life, trying to prevent BN fighting with black hand in his young years, etc... Which is kind of ironic, after all this napalm-like reflux he´s being displaying. Still, he strikes me as the plausible candidate, if neither hal or siniestro are to be the chosen ones.
Guy will still be cooler in white than Atrocius, though.
I think it's going to be G'nort.
Or maybe Deadman.
I never even thought of Atrocitus! But wouldn't that just make Hal explode! Or...or it could be Hector Hammond!
Lis, I WISH it was G'nort!
I want it to be Deadman. Since he's invisible, it'll look like the Lantern is floating and moving on its own, which will freak everyone else out.
"Ahhh, it's gained sentience! It's the start of another Crisis! Run for the shelters before the red skies show up!"
I didn't even think of Hector Hammond...hmm...he has been showing up randomly lately....
Ha! G'nort! That would be perfect. :-)
Watch it be Alan Scott.
Well actually...Alan would be an awfully good candidate. He really hasn't had much to do in the whole Blackest Night thingie, so it would be grand if he swooped in and snaffled the prize.
