The Next Green Lantern Event
Looming over the horizon...at least according to the previews...is the War of the Green Lanterns. Green-on-Green violence! Brother against Brother! Blows to the head!
I can hardly wait.
Or, is it actually a revolt against the Guardians? If that is the case, then they REALLY can't be all that surprised considering the poor quality of their stewardship lately. They've been doing a piss-poor job, to put it bluntly.
Hal saved their tiny blue butts...and as usual, they're suspicious because he isn't sending in progress reports. Salaak is all set to start spying on his taut firm ass. To be frank, he IS hanging around with people like Sinestro and Atrocitus, not to mention Larfleeze...but it's for the Greater Good!
Guy has teamed up with Ganthet to do something behind their backs with Atrocitus of all people. We're still being teased about exactly WHAT it is that is so important, but Guy doesn't take betrayal lightly...so I'm pretty sure that it's important. Whether everyone else will see it that way, is debateable. It's already been broadcast that he and Hal are going to find themselves at loggerheads, but that's just par for the course.
Even Sodam Yat, who used to be SUCH a toady to the Guardians has gotten fed up. He's gone from believing everything that they say to believing nothing. Of course, being betrayed by Scar, stripped of Ion, and stuck in a star may have had something to do with his sour mood, and really, who can blame him? He's run off with the few GOOD Daxamites, and they are going to star their OWN planet, and screw the Guardians!
John's always been a bit leery of the Guardians, and it can't have helped that they actively wanted to turn him into an Alpha Lantern...and were QUITE pissy when he declined that dubious honor. So I imagine, that Honor Guard or no, John is keeping an eye out.
Not too sure what Kyle thinks about all of the undercurrents. Guy isn't around right now, and he's busy trying to rescue Soranik, so I don't think that he's all that worried...yet.
But it will be fun to see what happens. Now, I'm off to the Comic Book Store!

I notice Guy keeps saying what he's doing will put him at loggerheads with Hal specifically but never mentions risking his friendship with Kyle, which I would think would be a bigger concern to him. Any ideas why?
John used to be a Guardian, dammit!
There's also a tease of the GL War in Gen Lost. Captain Atom is boosted to the future and Superman's nowhere to be found because he's out fighting in it a century from now.
What?!
I assume that Guy isn't worried about his friendship with Kyle, because they are actually FRIENDS! Hal always has a hissy fit about just about anything, so pooh on him.
John did inDEED used to be a Guardian, a fact that seems to have been swept pretty much under the rug. And a darned shame it is. He certainly couldn't do any worse than the short blue version.
Speaking of John, did anyone read R.E.B.E.L.S.? John shines rather brightly in the latest issue.
Siskoid, I did notice that. And the fact that Max Lord can't find Wonder Woman AT ALL, and nobody else even remembers her except for a select few. Max has opened up one huge can of worms apparently.
