This brings up a lot of questions regarding the origin of the Crimson Flame. Did the Guardians of Oa also concentrate old magic into that magical source? If so, why when they already created the Starheart that powers Alan Scott? And how will this affect the cosmic side of the Red Lanterns moving forward?
Perhaps that Johnny was more affected by his feelings for Alan than he was willing to admit.

As a character, he’s interesting, however, I don’t like that it appears that most of what Alan remembers was faked by Johnny. That’s why I liked the sucker punch so much.
