Why haven't the Green Lanterns stopped Brainiac...

Why haven't the Green Lanterns stopped Brainiac? Isn't destroying thousands of populated planets with the eventual goal of destroying every planet in the universe worth their attention?

Look, if they'd actually do their jobs, there would be little to nothing to write comics about.

They casually stopped him just a couple months ago. Larfleeze then ate him

wasn't that revealed to be a probe of the true Brainiac.

Brianac is to smart for Green Lantern only Superman can punch him hard enoug

No, it was a doombot

they're basically allies, you can tell by the color

Isn't that every Brainiac?

Shithead events keep distracting them?
He's just too low tier to get on their radar.

If he's so low tier then why did a bunch of them recently get defeated by one of his probes before said probe was destroyed by Larfleeze?

Because they ignore Colu. They could have stopped the Computer Tyrants before Brainiac became a threat, but instead they ignored the brainwashed dictatorship in the middle of the "safest sector in the universe" and now things are like this and they can't do anything about it.

Those green Lanterns just suck. Braniac knows better than to start shit in his home sector.
But seriously, Braniac is not high on the priority list compared to beings about to destroy the universe that have been bothering the Lanterns for the last few years.

>wants to control information
>eradicator of western culture
>huge crooked nose
>has a mechanical star of bethlehem on his back in injustice

the lanterns dont have what it takes to really handle the worlds problems

>He's just too low tier to get on their radar.
And Mongul isn't?

Green Lanterns usually don't interfere with native governments.

He's not exactly a pushover, user.
Dude is the most intelligent being in the universe, packing shields that can hold back even full powered Kryptonians at bay.

>All green people are in cahoots with one another
That's racist.

...

Cause frankly, the Green Lanterns fucking suck. They suck so much at protecting the universe, that Brainiac's own son managed to do a better job of it with his ragtag PMC.

Is it a native government after a hostile takeover where the new overlords have brainwashed the whole population?

It boils down to a few reasons basically
>he's not the biggest threat in the galaxy
he does pick off planets/cities/information and shit all the time but in a universe as large as DC, he becomes a relative blip on the radar for the GL's
>He's hard to actually locate
He's got a shit tone of probes all over the place and his mothership is usually on the move, not to mention more heavily armed than most ships a GL could handle
>one on one he can very well give a GL a serious ass whooping
He's got full mental control of everything on his ship from air supply to robots, he's 12th+ level intellect, and he's enhanced himself physically, not to mention enough will power to likely tear through the regular joe GL's constructs

Its worth mentioning that the best space cops in DC comics actually did arrest him though

Technically Querl lured him in and Vril just showed up to take him away

Okay, seriously DC, bring back L.E.G.I.O.N. Your cosmic stuff is utterly pitiful right now, and these fuckers are just the thing needed to inject some life into space.

Frankly, you should've had them show up around Lost Army, but whatever.

The Green Lanterns can only help in areas that they govern that are in direct and immediate threat.

They don't have the man power to pursue an entity that could be quite literally anywhere in the Universe.

True, Ture.

I hope that not-Tinya Phantom Girl in Terrifics will lead to L.E.G.I.O.N. being reestablished

She's gotta be Phase, right? It's the only thing that makes sense. It'd be pretty pointless to have her be a new character.

And even if she is Phase, she'd technically be Tinya anyway, because comic books.

There's some room for other explanations, but Phase definitely makes the most sense especially in this Rebirth era of recycling things. A completely new character doesn't really fit.

My money's on her being the third of the triplets from Carggite-Tinya. Lemire is a massive Legion nerd

I feel like teen bride Tinya kind of sucked enough that there's no real value in addressing that, like if you're taking anything from Reboot it wouldn't be stuff related to her.

Because they have other lanterns to beat up first

They might decide that she's Enya again

>the too intelligent to stop brainiac

>>he's not the biggest threat in the galaxy
In that storyline where he escapes Colu following New Krypton (don't remember the name, the one with Brainiac 5) the galactic travel handbook calls him the worst mass murderer in the history of the Milky Way.

In the Superman: Doomed story line he's called "possibly most dangerous being to ever exist."

Him escaping Colu should be the Sons of Brainiac arc, B5 doesn't appear in that but he's in the arc before that when Brainiac is brought to Colu.

But yeah, he's extremely dangerous and in Superman: Brainiac he talks about being able to absorb over 70 times seven octodecillion beings (which is 70 times 7^57 IIRC), so we can assume that he's somewhere in that ballpark.
