The Guardians of the Universe and Captain Britain



Captain Britain's original costume is one of my favorites.  It seems like it shouldn't work but for some reason it just looks cool to me.  The Guardians' appearance has gone through a few changes over the years.  I am glad that they don't all look pretty much identical to one another anymore.  The Green Lantern movie over-thought their design (as they did with the overly glowing GL uniforms) by giving them translucent heads that reminded me of Mars Attacks more than anything else.  Don't get me started  on the silly giant chairs they were perched upon!  Those seemed a bit impractical.

Very good idea, and great cover.

Seamless -- and nice use of one of my favorite GL covers!

How about Nova & The Guardians of the Universe?

Well, in issue #121, Nova met Hal Jordan, is that close enough?

Love it, great use of CB on a GL cover. I ran a piece in my Blog some time ago about how The Captain Britain Corps could be Marvels version of The Green Lantern Corps as defenders of the Multiverse. I'd buy it! Keep up the good work!
