I really miss Bearded Guy, leader of the Red Lantern Corps.

I miss buxom, tattooed Warrior Guy.

No I don't.

He was to great to stay in this world.

Is that guy gardener? I stopped reading DC after jew 52

God, the ending to his solo was so rushed.

Yes

Red porn star Guy was nice while he lasted but I prefer him Green

he's been pretty based in Hal & Pals

Yeah, basically it started as an undercover operation to infiltrate the reds. He eventually defeats Atrocitus and takes over. And after a series of events Hal ends up accidentally giving control of Earth's sector of space to the Red Lanterns as a thank you for their help in fighting a cosmic threat.

Do he do evil stuff or fight for truth, justice and the american cheese?

The latter, but in the typical Aggressive Guy Garden manner.

Damn, I always wonder why the big two always end up fucking heros out of character development. Is depth such a bad thing?

It really did felt like it was over way too soon. Especially when the roster was getting interesting.

>yfw ZZ learned what a testicle is

...

Ok, which issues specifically is this? I feel a mighty need to read.

Next page?

Man, this book got really good after Soule took over.

Don't remember, but for the bad reputation Soule gets, his entire Red Lantern run is deserving of a read IMO. It may have been the most depth the entire corps got, which made their Rebirth resimplification all the more frustrating.
It was a cutaway IIRC

So what happens?. Does Giant-Ball-Man gets slapped or kicked?

I honestly don't remember.
Sorry.

It's a god damn travesty the Red Lanterns haven't evolved into anti-heroes embodying righteous fury.

Well I've found some stuff on view-comic and by chance picked the exact issue after Gardner has defeated Atrocitus, so I'm good.
Actually, while I'm here, what stuff before Rebirth is worth reading? Like, not going too far back, and really fun.

Honestly? Part of why post-Rebirth GL has been generally so well recieved is because the entire line (possibly excluding Sinestro) was generally so forgettable or bad previously. Honestly, I remember a time when Red Lanterns and Sinestro was the only thing Lantern related worth reading.

>Let's fuck some shit up with Hawkman and Lobo!
>Oh shit, Arisia is dead
>Oh shit, I killed Major Force
>The End

It didn't really get the graceful ending it wanted.

>Red Lanterns and Sinestro was the only thing Lantern related worth reading
I'm good with that if you say it is. Don't suppose Agent Orange appeared before Rebirth?

I think he had a mini written by Giffen the second year of the New 52. I don't recall how it was received. Also, it is loosely Lantern related, but if you haven't read Omega Men, I'd recommend that as well.

I'll keep it in mind for another time. I'm specifically in the mood for some lanterns right now.

My god, Dex-Starr and Atrocitus are cute in this.

Him looking like a testicle was a running gag for the series. Guy called him one after first meeting him, and poor ZZ never thought to google what it was until it was too late. Don't hover over that unless you do plan on reading it

Guy red lantern arc sucked.
For starters Atrocitus jobbed super hard for Guy to beat him 1v1 on his home turf.

And then apparently 90% of the red lanterns just go away cause all that's left are the few who are given names.

It isn't jobbing when Guy is legitimately superior to Atrocitus.

>An immortal rage fueled beefcake full of rage inducing power and blood magic that not even a bunch of Black Lanterns could put down
>Loses to one human lantern

Like yeah Guy's tough but that's like Guy beating out Sinestro.

It's pretty much just Guyfags that like it.

Larfleeze had his own book for 12 issues and he showed up in a couple issue of JL3001

He'll be showing up again soon in HJGLC

I dont

I miss star sapphire john stewart.

No I don't. I wish sapphire stewart had been done better.

Larfleeze was one of the few things that I collected from New 52, that and the second half of Red Lanterns

>Rankorr and Bleeze
oh no I ship it

>Bleez with her hood off
oh no, she's cute

>red lantern bonding
I'm both confused and heart-warmed.

>kara hugging guy
hnnnng
I'm really enjoying this book. Glad this thread steered me towards it.

I miss Soule writing good comics.

>Shadow Thief messing with jews
I shouldn't be laughing at this, but with her inherent anti-alien racism, it's hard to not read more into this.

>rankorr possessed by giant millipede
gross

ohhh goddamn. rip zz

haha ok yes, this is laying a bit heavy on the guy-loving.
Still a fun read.

Let's see...new gods...eh, think I'll skip that.
Hope no one minded my live commentary.

Yeah Godhead was shit, not worth reading

Last time I saw Guy he was acting as a mole as the leader of the red lanterns

I didn't see how that ended, what happened?

He took over the Red Lanterns for real, then he didn't want to do that for some reason so he was just hanging out on Earth by himself (and maybe got rid of the Red ring?), then Guy and the whole GLC vanished and got stuck in another universe temporarily where he turned Green again with little explanation and now he's a regular GL again

That's weird

and stupid.

I hope Soule dies a slow, painful death. I also jope he dies young

So is it safe to say nobody likes Yellow Lantern Guy?

You mean early 90s Guy? Nah, he was fine

He's never brought up. I assumed everyone hated him as a yellow lantern and tried pushing it under the rug.

Well it didn't last very long, got overshadowed by Warrior and it was like 25 years ago, it just doesn't come up much

I miss Rankorr

Soule signed a Marvel exclusive

Slapped, of course.

What are the Reds doing right now and how little of them are left after the mini civil war?

Simon and Jess fought them for a little. They have a big plan coming iirc.

I'm almost afraid to ask what happened to him, but I'll just assume he got retconned out of existence.

Lobo'd. Atrocitus didn't bother to revive him.

So basically what I said.
I'm assuming Bleez came back (or was never killed), but the writers forgot all about her relationship with him?

This is just ridiculous...

Yep

I don't think Bleez died but they just ignored her and Rankorr and her beef with Atrocitus

Bleez was in the first arc of the Baz and Jessica book

Simon accidentally cured her of her Red Lantern powers, removed her rage and fixed her wings. But he couldn't sustain it and she went Red again

>Like yeah Guy's tough but that's like Guy beating out Sinestro.

Guy beat Sinestro in a battle of wills in the 90's when he stole his ring.
