The Green Lantern Corps and The Incredibles

 

I quite enjoyed the CGI Green Lantern and Beware the Batman series from several years back. The characters designs were done well and there were some truly impressive action sequences.  Some of the backgrounds could have been a little more detailed - lots of scenes taking place in giant empty rooms with maybe a single desk in them - but other than that the animation was pretty solid.  Hopefully, we'll see some more superhero shows in that format.

Green Lantern Corps and Eternity

 

It sounds like the Green Lantern Corps Max series is still on the way, even if it will take a while to get here.  Report have said it will be a mostly down to Earth mystery, which I am sure will help the budget.  Still, I hope they don't ignore too many of the fantastical off-world elements that makes The Corps such a cool concept.  Now that the strikes are over, hopefully we'll hear more about the direction of the show and casting for it soon.

Venom and Green Lantern

 

I can still remember reading an issue of The Comic's Buyers' Guide and seeing plans for a new all-black Spider-Man suit.  I didn't think Marvel would stick with such a drastic change for more than an issue or two, but had to admit the new costume as illustrated by Rick Leonardi looked pretty cool.  Little did I realize what it would lead to. To think that Jim Shooter purchased the design off of a fan for a few hundred bucks!

Nightcrawler, Wolverine and the Green Lantern Corps

 

Presenting the conclusion of our three-part epic!  Let's hope the combined forces of all of these heroes is enough to turn back an attack from The Empire.  Marvel Studios has mastered the cinematic universe and now they are about to dive headfirst into the multiverse... how long until they take the next step and have Marvel heroes cross over into other Disney-Owned properties like Star Wars?

Green Lantern and Nightcrawler

 

This marks the 4000th cover that I have posted on this blog! I never though I would reach this point, but here we are!

 It is also Part Two of a Three Part Epic - We now see why Logan is seeking the Corps' help:  His teammate is in trouble on Hoth! Make sure that you stop by tomorrow to see how everything plays out in the exciting conclusion!

Wolverine and The Green Lantern Corps

 

Presenting part one of a three-part epic!  It looks like Logan and the GLC still aren't quite on the same page yet - after all, there's been tension between him and the space cops since way back in STF #209... Where will the story go from here?  Make sure you stop by tomorrow to find out!

Green Lantern Corps and The Beyonder

 

I enjoyed Secret Wars and the concept of The Beyonder, but I always wonder about the decisions behind his appearance.  He's a nigh-omnipotent being and the visual we readers got was of a guy with a jheri curl in a bright white disco suit.  I mean, that look was already dated in 1984, when he was first introduced.  He was a little hard to take seriously, despite his nearly infinite powers.

Green Lantern and Ultron

I've read that a deal could not be worked out with Ryan Reynolds to reprise his Green Lantern role in the Justice League Snyder Cut coming out next month.  I'm betting that Zack Snyder still wants to have a new GL cameo though.  Will it still be Hal Jordan, but recast?  Maybe John Stewart will be used instead, or even a fully CGI Lantern like in the Amazon battle scene.  I just want one shot of the complete League together, with a GL and The Martian Manhunter in attendance.

Green Lantern Corps and Captain Marvel in "Get Them to the Guardians!"

 

I am hoping we get some casting news for the HBO Max Green Lantern Corps series soon.  John Stewart and Hal Jordan are being saved for the big screen, so this series will focus on Alan Scott, Guy Gardner, Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz.  I do hope they manage to get some alien GL's in there, despite a lower streaming budget. Chaselon makes everything better.

Mar-Vell previously met the GLC in STF #221...

Godzilla Joins The Green Lantern Corps

Presenting the conclusion to our Three-Part Epic! Looks like helping out the GLC is going to be more than a one-time gig for the big guy!

I was thinking the Green Lantern ring tease for John Diggle on the last episode of Arrow might indicate David Ramsay's involvement in the Green Lantern Corps HBO Max series.  Then, they made a point of him saying that he was relocating to Metropolis - so now it seems he'll be a part of the upcoming Superman and Lois CW show.  Hopefully he'll be on one of the two, I like the actor in the role.

Coming tomorrow: STF #2900!

Calvin & Hobbes join The Green Lantern Corps

I really hope that some forward momentum is happening behind the scenes with a Green Lantern Corps movie.  It seems like ages since we have heard anything about it.  I'm guessing that we will have to wait until the release of Wonder Woman 1984 before Warner Bros starts to clarify the future of the DCEU, and where characters like Flash, Superman and the GLC are going.  We haven't even had confirmation that Matt Reeve's Batman movie will be connected to WW1984 or the still years off Aquaman sequel.  Will JJ Abrams be their answer to Marvel's Kevin Feige?

Green Lantern Corps and Guardians of the Galaxy

Continuing from Part One and Part Two of our story, we reach the epic conclusion!

I wonder what Rocket Racoon's relationship will be like with the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy when the third movie arrives.  Did his time without them in the five years that they were snapped out of existence change him at all?  Certainly it must have made him appreciate them more.  What was he up to the whole time?  I hope to see some of this addressed and it's not just a reset to what has gone before.

Green Lantern Corps and Captain Universe

I am hoping that we are close to hearing some announcements on the Green Lantern Corps movie.  Robert Zemeckis has been rumored as someone that DC would like to direct, which would be pretty cool.  They also seem to be aiming high to get an older mentor-type Hal Jordan, I've heard Tom Cruise and Mark Wahlberg mentioned as what they are looking for.  Sadly, no news on the most important aspect of any GL film - who will be voicing Chaselon?

Green Lantern Corps Vs. The X-Men

For the planned Green Lantern Corps movie, I'd definitely want the three GL's above to appear, along with John Stewart, Tomar Re and Katma Tui.  If there's room for another human GL, let's bring in Guy Gardner - I can imagine an actor like Sean William Scott really having fun with the role.

Hal Jordan and the Corps have been holding a grudge against Wolverine for a long time - since STF #209, in fact...

Green Lantern Corps and The Hulk

I have always wondered why Stephen Spielberg never tried his hand at a superhero movie,  He's worked in so many other genres, isn't against directing adapted material and is a master of using special effects to their best potential, so I think he would be a great fit.  The upcoming Green Lantern Corps film would be a perfect project for his amazing talents.

The Hulk has Crossed Paths with Green Lantern Before - They first met in STF #108...  Green Arrow was along for the ride in STF #919... She-Hulk and Kilwog joined them in STF #759...  and their evil personas clashed in STF #1681...

Green Lantern Corps and Silver Surfer

If there is one death at DC I would like to undo, it's that of Katma Tui.  I always liked her character and was glad when she became a romantic interest for John Stewart, thinking she would get more to do.  Unfortunately that made her ripe for a sacrifice to motivate John and her fate was sealed.  It hurt even more when the grisly moment of her death at the hands of Star Sapphire was illustrated by legendary Green Lantern artist Gil Kane, making it seem more "real" to me. I thought that with her appearances on the animated Justice League Unlimited, she would make a comeback but alas I have not seen her return.

Green Lantern Corps Vs. Galactus

I was glad to see that Green Lantern Corps is among DC's future movies.  Not only does that mean that Hal Jordan will get another chance on the big screen, we will also see the live action debut of John Stewart.  I wonder which other GL's will fill out the roster though.  I'd pick Katma Tui for her relationship with Stewart as well as Tomar Re and Chaselon just because they are so darn cool.  I look forward to see the new character designs, as they all seemed a bit off the first time around.

This is only Part One of this cosmic tale - make sure you stop by tomorrow for the thrilling conclusion!

Green Lantern Corps Vs. Dark Phoenix

The one thing we know about DC's plan to bring back Green Lantern on the big screen is that he will appear in a movie titled Green Lantern Corps.  That's a good sign though, because it clears the way for other Earthbound GL's to appear in addition to Hal Jordan (who deserves another chance).  Let's hope that the always awesome Chaselon gets  more screen time too. I can't get enough of that mohawked sentient diamond.

The Green Lantern Corps and Futurama

Futurama, in my opinion, is one of the greatest animated series ever.  It had a great cast of characters brought to life with excellent voice work and a setting that allowed the writers to fill their episodes with tons of sight gags and Easter eggs in addition to humorously inventive plots.  The episodes were often touching and thought provoking as well. The series has come back to life twice after I thought it completed, so maybe there's a chance that it may return again one of these days.  Until then I will enjoy re-watching old seasons.

Iron Man joins the Green Lantern Corps

It is going to be interesting to see where Iron Man goes in the Marvel cinematic universe.  He looks to be positioned for a fall, with Ultron coming about as a result of his technology.  The upcoming Avengers sequel is rumored to end with a disjointed team, and them Tony Stark will next be seen in Captain America: Civil War - in which he will supposedly be the primary antagonist.  Thus all sounds interesting and will give Robert Downey Jr. plenty of cool scenes to perform.  I just hope that the heroic side of Iron Man still comes through in the end.
