Why hello there, @ObscurityofDCClub and other members of the DC Community! Welcome to Week 80 of Obscurity of DC’s Obscure Book Club! For those of you who haven’t already heard the bad news, legendary comic writer and artist Keith Giffen has passed away just a few days ago. As a tribute to Keith Giffen, one of the greatest writers of our time, I’ve dedicated the next two weeks to be a focus on one of his more obscure series…


THRESHOLD!!!
AGE SUGGESTION: 12+

Number of Issues: 4 - PLEASE ONLY READ THE FIRST 4 ISSUES

Description from dc.com: Jediah Caul, a disgraced Green Lantern stripped of his power ring, is hunted for sport on a televised reality show! Forced to battle aliens from across the galaxy, Caul must assemble his own group of rebels to storm the metaphorical castle of their abductors before the game ends and they lose.

Now that that’s over with, here are some discussion questions:

  1. Why do you think Jediah was considered assigned to being one of the hunted?
  2. Besides having his ring in his chest, what sets Jediah apart from other Green Lanterns?
  3. Why do you think Pamiera Syn is so skeptical to work with Ric Starr? Why do you think Ric Starr is so open to work with Pamiera Syn?
  4. What are your thoughts on Jaime Reyes being added to the game? Did you enjoy this twist? Explain.
  5. Do you think it’s better for the Hunted to work in a group or on their own? Explain.
