We’ll Have Fun Fun Fun Till My Daddy Takes The Lantern Away

Nice.

I love how even a tiny Alan Moore story which was constructed more or less in the manner illustrated here manages to launch probably DC’s best crossover of recent memory. Not sure I’m all aboard the corps-spectrum train, but it’s more ambitious and narrative-based than anything having to do with Countdown — especially the Arena atrocity.

…Ya know, Sodam Yat wouldn’t have been so annoying if A> he appeared earlier than the war (not counting the Alan Moore story) and B> They didn’t fawn all over him in the last few Gibbons-Written issues of Corps.

I swear, fucker was like a Mary Sue. The Tomasi-written issue that actually gave Yat a backstory (and much beatings by Emoboy-Prime) was actually the first time I could stand the character. Now if only GLC would get a different artist.

Oh, good. I’m glad I’m not the only person finding the spectrum of rings a bit silly. (Periwinkle Lanterns clearly use the emotion of “seeing that there’s only one piece of pie left, and asking if anyone else wants it even though you’re hoping they say no”.)

I’ve never understood why DC still uses Sodam Yat’s name. The pun on Daxamite should be quite obvious. They really want the Greatest Green Lantern to be called the “Sodomite”??
