Lanterns Episode 3 | Birds Aren't Real (But Trauma Is)

John Stewart gets the spotlight in Episode 3 of Lanterns, “OutKast,” as we finally dive into his childhood, military career, and complicated path toward becoming the Guardians pick for the next Green Lantern. We break down his seriously messed-up upbringing, the mysterious Guardian, the birds, and the growing suspicion that something much bigger is happening behind the scenes. Plus, we talk about John and Hal’s rocky first meeting, the non-linear storytelling, and whether the Guardians might actually be the bad guys. And, of course, we ask the most important question: just how whelmed are we?
