    Since New 52, I've tried to get every appearance of a GL (though I missed Earth 2: Society). I thought I'd get the new retconned Alan, but with the preview this week, I just can't do it. I can't force myself to collect something that's going to be such a chore to read. I guess in my head, I can justify it that I collect GLC books and Alan isn't GLC. But they have so ruined the character, I can't support this.

    Definitely. I read them online in the hopes of finding something worth buying, but it's just trash over and over. I'm at the point where I won't shed a tear if/when the industry finally dies.

    This is why I've given up buying comics. There's nothing coming out worth spending money on.

    Uh oh... this part:

    DC's press release says of the Alan Scott book: "Alan Scott: The Green Lantern revisits and recontextualizes the origins of the first Green Lantern through the lens of our modern understanding of the man.

    You know what that means!

    I wasn't really interested anyway, but, yeah, that's worrying. But I haven't watched a live-action comic book show since Lois and Clark (and I didn't see every episode of that).

    Fuck Geoff Johns and anything associated with him. The only good thing is that he'll take so long to come out with them that we'll forget these exist.

    What in the fresh hell is this? Is this in canon?

    Alan's daughter, who has internalized green power is Jade. Red Lantern's daughter who has internalized red power is Ruby.... I get it. Man, Red Lantern really wanted to emulate Alan. (what do you call a Soviet superfan of GA Green Lantern? ... "StAlan" ... get it - he Stans Alan... he's Soviet... )

    Yeah, that's a new kind of Red Lantern, right? I'm not missing some lore, am I?

    The New Golden Age 2023

    Hello ringslingers,

    I've seen 2 new titles using "The New Golden Age" in the top corner of the cover. What does this mean for Green Lantern?

    - Alan Scott, the magical first Green Lantern, and in the Justice Society, has a Russian counterpart, who boasts of a "Crimson Flame"?
    - This Russian has a Jade daughter counterpart with the Crimson Flame in her hand?

    Justice Society of America 001-0009f.jpg

    So the Emotional Spectrum already changes with Alan Scott's career.

    Anything else new in 2023 with DC Comics?
