Now Hal has to be the dick

it's a problem with the whole system of letting a writer completely rework a property in his own image, and then expecting someone later to get everything back out of that box. yes, some fans for some reason enjoy that process, but i want to see stories, not writers playing "you screw it up and i'll fix it."

What writer dose not rework a property. I mean if it were like that,then Green Lantern would still be the guy in the purple cape. I don't think anything is beyound repair,but me personally If it were mine to write I feel like would just write cool stand alone GL issues and let the fans draw thier own conclusions on how Green Lantern morphed to where I had it. I think at this point we just need some good GL issues that have nothing to do with an event.

you also have to consider though that mosaic and the glc quarterly were canceled to make way for kyle, despite having good sales. and i do know that when it was announced that hal and the corps were coming back, kyle's sales had dropped to 31k. but with all that said, his ass lasted a lot longer than i ever would have imagined.

Can't speak on GLCQ, but Mosaic was cancelled long before they even thought of Kyle if what Gerard Jones and Cully Hamner said in interviews was true.

Personally, would like to see if they'll actually let John be the star for change. I'll check out GLC next issue under the new team and if it doesn't grab me I'm done with GL.

Yeah, GLCQ was canned due to ET, but Mosaic, supposedly, was cancelled because it was "too wierd", despite having decent sales number. At least that was my understanding.

Guy was forced to go the Vuldarian route due to editorial mandate after ET costing him the yellow ring. I think that's when Alan became Sentinel as well, but that could have been a bit earlier, I suppose. And while Mosaic's cancellation was not due to the changes brought about by ET, it seems pretty certain that John being shunted to the Darkstars, and Mosiac being almost completely ignored (to the extent that John was nowhere to be found during ET despite being on Oa at the time with the powers of a Guardian, and they had Kyle blow up the planet, and only belatedly decided to toss in a mention about an evacuation months later).
