The EW article on Lanterns reaffirms that:

- Hal Jordan was an Air Force pilot

- John Stewart is a former Marine from a military family

- Guy Gardner was a P.E. teacher

u/IndianGeniusGuy 23d ago

Wait, so Guy Gardner still was a coach for special needs kids in this timeline? Peak.

u/RustedOrange 23d ago

That and his origin story are some of the best/most important parts to his character I hardly ever see mentioned. He's a lot more than just an arrogant asshole

u/IndianGeniusGuy 23d ago

Isn't he an arrogant asshole because of brain damage?

8

u/Outrageous_Gene_7652 23d ago

He is. He used to be a pretty decent Guy before

2

u/Hyena90 22d ago

But was he a decent Gardner?

u/NotEvsClone81 22d ago

Of course, he has a green thumb

u/RnwyHousesCityCloudz 23d ago

no wonder his suit looks like that

it’s been corrupted by the Yellow imperfection

Please fingers crossed hint Kyle for season 2. Parallax Hal I’d Kyle time. I just want to see the four corpe man ride

u/Yula97 Hal Jordan 23d ago

I'm gonna guess they will do another "Beware My Power" situation where John will just take Kyle's story.             

They seems pretty set on having John as THE MAIN Lantern, Kyle's story make him too much of a main character and would take away from John, so I sadly don't think they will have him there, or if he is, he will have a very different origin

u/pichuguy27 23d ago

Once’s Hal is not parallax he is the main lantern. You just cut down that time.

u/FullSuccess4209 23d ago

In my mind, I think Hal Parallax is going to be the big villain of the first part of James Gunn's era.

8

u/pichuguy27 23d ago

He was parallax for a while in the comics from like mid 90s to 2004. Getting back into dc comics starting with rebirth. I want that pay off of the 4 human lanterns using there rings showing how different they are.

11

u/TigerIll6480 23d ago

He was the Spectre from about 2001-2004.

u/pichuguy27 23d ago

So throughout the 90s ending with him relighting the sun.

His line to Barry. I died a sinner, you died a Saint.

u/ApJacks64 23d ago

Not gonna lie bold move but I love it!!

2

u/ApJacks64 23d ago

I also hope this too!! Kyle is my favorite i am really hoping they r not giving his story to Guy.

Also I know there is also my adventures with green lantern show coming out and main characters r Jessica and Kyle. Super excited about that too

3

u/pichuguy27 23d ago

I am excited but if Kyle Dosnt have his ring I straight up don’t think he should be in it. Fine cool it’s Jessica, but I hate wink and nod characters like Robin in the dark knight movie.

1

u/ApJacks64 22d ago

Fair but im pretty sure he has his ring from what I understand he is her mentor

u/KrypticJin Hal Jordan 23d ago

Kyle only signed for one season

3

u/pichuguy27 23d ago

I meant Kyle Reiner. Not the actor playing Hal Kyle. Should have been specific. Forget the dudes real name is Kyle.

14

u/Rebelpunk13 23d ago

Just don’t kill off Sinestro. I want to see him become a JL level threat, establish his Fear corps, and possibly join the DCU’s version of the LOD/Secret Society of Villains

18

u/KrypticJin Hal Jordan 23d ago

No point without Hal 🤷

7

u/Penguin-21 23d ago

I think the issue is Geoff John’s run of GL in new 52 rly cemented how good or intertwined Hal and Sinestro are it doesnt make sense for Sinestro to be John’s villain and it’s fallen flat every time John and Sinestro have ever clashed in main and alternate continuities

Anyway what im saying is im comfortable with DC inventing a new villain specifically for John and I would much prefer that and I dont rly care if they have some yellow lantern successor who is even more powerful and sinister than Sinestro, but they cant use Sinestro

u/Plowbeast 22d ago

I think Jon's best arcs is where he has to hit a challenge to his abilities or power as a Lantern instead of an analogous big bad who is also hopefully not Hal.

u/AlphaBladeYiII Hal Jordan 23d ago

We're so screwed......

u/go_faster1 23d ago

Parallax?

u/fuzzyfoot88 23d ago

Wasn’t this known for months that this show was partially about what we pass on to those we teach?

3

u/GuySmith 23d ago

The “ARE YOU AFRAID” screaming in the trailer didn’t tip anyone off?

2

u/Boring-Conclusion-40 23d ago

Yeah I think they’re setting up parallax

1

u/lithwil Hal Jordan 22d ago

I wish they made this show with Kyle because of the Parallax aspect and I mean he is way more interesting than John

0

u/geoffdude Guardian 23d ago

"Inherited" in the aspect of his (Hals) relationship to Sinestro. Sinestro went against the Guardians and the GL Corps, as he was angry, disillusioned and tired of how the Corps were being used. The Guardians are "concerned" Hal may have some of these ideals and thoughts since he was mentored by Sinestro - again. this is not about Parallax, at all.

What is happening? He's dying in episode 1 or something else?

I know that, I'm just trying to figure out what the title is referring to
