Exactly! They jumped right into the story no time wasted and highlighted plenty of other characters. It also set up things for other movies. Maybe we get to see what Superman and Batman were up to during that time in future movies.
I am not familiar with Green Lantern mythos but I think Hal will come back. I think one of those rings will find itās way to Hal and resurrect him somehow. While John stays on earth, Hal will rebuild the corps somehow. Once he pays his dues heāll return to earth to formally meet John after a brief fight of course.
Man I responded to you and the quote code got mixed up with the spoiler code and it came out to be a jumbled mess
In short, I like your theory, but think that if Hal makes a comeback it will be to aid the Justice League in whatever major threat is coming in the next JL animated movie.
Gosh, I wish I was the right person to ask. Iām very interested in Green Lantern lore myself. I tried getting into it by following Grant Morrisonās recent run, and I didnāt understand half of it (they speak in riddles). Then I tried my hand at the run following that (Geoffrey Thorne) but also found it not very new reader friendly. What I should have done is check this out:
From what I gather:
Green Lantern Rebirth
Green Lantern 2005-2011
Green Lantern 2011-2016
Is important stuffs, but I admit to having read very little of it all.
Yeah, I saw that but just thought Iād ask anyways. Iāll give those 3 a shot. I was planning on starting from 2005 but wasnāt too sure. Iāll probably just make a post later.
As @moro suggested, Geoff Johns and his run on Green Lantern is a great starting point for someone wanting to get into Green Lantern.
I say that not only as an ardent GL fan, but also as someone who counts Geoff Johnsā GL as his all-time favorite GL run. Its absolutely magnificent, and builds and builds into an ever-arcing crescendo of badassery as it continues.
Robert Vendittiās follow-up from where Johns left off in The New 52 is great as well. His GL run also encompasses the mightily magnificent Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps, which was my favorite GL book of Rebirth by a long shot.
If youāre wanting content thatās John Stewart-centric, give these a whirl:
Just saw it the other night. Beginning to end this movie was exciting. The story was intelligent and the characters interesting. I would love to see more animated movies along this line.
Finally watched this and honestly was kind of disappointed. Its sad because I really like John Stewart but I just felt the movie was the weakest installment of the DC Animated films weāve had in some time.
Which again sucks cause I love me some Green Lantern. But overall yeah this one just didnāt do it for me.
Still excited for upcoming installments in this new animated universe though.
