Maybe next big thing? Green Lantern Pt 2








So what am I talking about in terms of the Blackest Night as per the previous post? The current big crossover series has the Green Lantern Corps at war (yet again) but the backdrop is a galaxy-spanning conflict with all the color spectrum of ROYGBIV involved. Bear with me, but this is how it goes:

Green (Green Lantern Corps): willpower
Yellow (Sinestro Corps): fear
Red (Red Lantern Corps): rage
Blue (Blue Lantern Corps): hope
Violet (Star Sapphires): love
Orange (Agent Orange): greed
Indigo (Indigo Tribe): compassion.

It looks like Green will ally itself with Blue, Violet and Indigo. Orange will not ally itself with anyone due to self-absorption. Red will attack just about everyone and Yellow, well, we will have to see. The main issue for all of this unnecessary bloodletting is the rise of a new color off the spectrum - Black, the color of death. For this new Black Lantern Corps means to bring life to all the dead characters of the DC Universe as zombies. And we all know what they want - to eat your BRAINS!

I look forward to seeing all of these colors at the next Con.
