John is now an ULTRAVIOLET Lantern

[Space Cop]

What? Like an Alpha-Lantern?

Sorta sounded like it. I also missed when this happened. I was thinking either I totally forgot something or maybe JL got ahead of an upcoming story in Odyssey.

Somehow I missed the exact procedure, but John Stewart in Justice League #14 (2019) has his Green Lantern power ring now as a tattoo on his second finger of his right hand, and John stated that his biological heart is becoming a power lantern.

And now they're introducing an evil White Lantern John Stewart from another reality?

In the picture the "other" John Stewart is a White Lantern. The "other" Flash looks like Godspeed from the Flash title. Wonder Woman has a cybernetic arm. These aren't "opposite" heroes, or "anti-matter universe" heroes, these might be more powerful heroes. Myziltplik is in the middle, so clearly this is his doing.

Okay, who's trying to restart the Ion avatar again? This was a Kyle-or-Sodam Yat-only plotline.

[Star-Lantern]

Yeah. Snyder's Justice League sucks.

I'm really not too excited about the whole direction JL is taking now. This whole "hidden mysteries of the universe" angle is making me weary, especially when it leads to things I find as stupid as the "Invisible Emotional Spectrum" or the "Still Force".

And it's so wordy! The last few issues have had more words on a page than the paperback I'm reading. I can't even keep all this deep mythology straight. They keep referring to all these people, events, and substances and I only vaguely recall them.

Lol they can't stop can they? I don't think DC can help themselves with these trainwrecks.

...And issue #1 of JLA was reeally good. I hate the Super Friends detritus that DC still cannot step away from. But other than that, superb first issue.

I really like the Super Friends stuff, BUT it is a weird juxtaposition when you take the elements of that cartoon, which was very light, and make it about the dark super secrets of the universe.

[Michael Heide]

Well, obviously. I don't think any of us doubted that. Star-Lantern even said as much.

It looks like this is going to be temporary, thank goodness.

SPOILERS.

I just can't envision DC giving John a Parallax-style heel turn for years on end. I get the feeling that this is leading to some larger narrative plan, like a new villain who will wield this ultraviolent energy.

I think this development will only last for one story arc, if even that. I don't think it's anything too serious, relatively speaking. I also think it's intentionally wacky, so while silly, it isn't anything I worry about, concerning the well being of the John Stewart character. At least, that's the feeling this gives me, especially after reading the obviously intentionally silly-ish solicitation text. That's the big difference between what I think this will be and what Geoff Johns and some others have done with the Emotional Spectrum, which I don't care for. I have a feeling Snyder is intentionally doing something bizarre and kinda' silly, because he thinks it will be weird and fun (and hopefully there will be an entertaining story in there). Geoff Johns, on the other hand, was totally serious about the (IMO) utterly ridiculous stuff he was doing with all those different colored Corps.

I had an Ultraviolet Corps as a throwaway line ten whole years ago.
