Also, the "Yellow Lantern" symbol is from the Parallax costume, but it's supposed to be originated from the Parallax entities body itself. Although it is a retcon, the suit of Hal as Parallax was meant to have the symbol because the entity had it as well. The same goes for Ion, this was a retcon too. The symbol Kyle had on his 2nd GL suit and 2nd Ion suit is on the actual body of the Ion entity. So the same should be assumed for therest of the entities. We should expect, when we see them, that they will have the respective symbols, somewhere, somehow, on their bodies as well.

The thing I don't mind about most, not all, but most of Geoff's retcons. Is that he hasn't really changed the facts. He just goes back and adds more detail to things that were never mentioned at the time, but could have been. So in a sense, he's not really changing things, just adding more depth to the past, present, and future.....

I think the symbols are going to go back a whole hell of lot longer than the last year's worth of comics. Look through Tales of the GLC Annual #2 for the symbology, or maybe the Red Lantern symbol is stemming from something else... the true force behind them all, their Guardian(s).

Again, I don't imagine the imprisoned members on Ysmault created that first Lantern themselves. And surely there must be a Central Battery somewhere, perhaps not even on Ysmault at all?

RL symbol is perfect, when i look at it, its like looking at a devil's symbol... its like a circle with two long sinister looking horns

I don't really see it. Maybe it's based on something we haven't seen yet.

[IonFan]

you talking about the guy on the right

[Maverick_GL]

I'll check it out.

[Prime]

yeah. The shape if you look at the splash page in GL#25. The back of his head KINDA looks like the RL symbol.

[Maverick_GL]

You are referring to Atrocitus.

I'd say the things on the side of his face do slightly resemble the RL symbol, but thats about it.

[IonFan]

i don't see it

so EVS said that the SC symbol came from the Parallax outfit so the RL symbol comes from somewhere too. And I think I found it. If you look at the red guy who was at the beginning of GL#28 and in the War of Light splash(forget his name) the thing on the back of his head, not sure if it's part of him or not, resembles the RL symbol. Just an observation.
