OM DENNE EPISODE
The Lanterns season finale is here, and the Mostly Superheroes crew is going ALL IN on the spoilers. Logan Janis is joined by George, Neil and Jules to break down the emotional ending, Hal Jordan’s murder, Kerry’s shocking reveal, Noah’s Manhunter connection, Sinestro, John Stewart finally becoming a Green Lantern and that mysterious new Dark Lantern.
Was the finale too slow? Did it give us enough action? What does John Stewart’s new oath actually mean? And what could that fear-infused Lantern mean for the future of the DCU?
We also dig into the comic book connections, the grounded approach to Green Lantern, the Superman and Smallville parallels, the Justice League Unlimited influence on John Stewart, the Captain America comparisons, and where the story could go next.
