Previews seems to have spoiled the second Black Lantern also
(which you can spoil yourself on, in the thread below,

Alpha-Lantern Boodikka, and the first Black Lantern
(which you can spoil yourself on, in the thread below,

DC Direct is proud to produce action figures for THE event of the summer - the beginning of the highly-anticipated "Blackest Night" storyline! Included in this series are
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, the first member of the lifeless, emotionless Black Lanterns to be revealed; Boodikka, the veteran corpsman who was among the first to become a member of the Green Lantern Corps' own policing unit, the Alpha Lanterns; Saint Walker, the first member of the Blue Lantern Corps, which champions hope in the universe; and Atrocitus, Abin Sur's killer and the first to utilize the power of blood and rage to become a member of the Red Lantern Corps, which is out to destroy both the Sinestro and Green Lantern Corps! All four figures feature multiple points of articulation and include a display base. The Saint Walker and Atrocitus figures include lantern accessories, and the Boodikka figure comes with a
removable
face plate. 4-color clamshell blister card packaging.

Smith!
A rare audio interview is up with
veteran writer (and of particular interest to most here,

about his career, Guy Gardner's Vuldarian powers and
more... and drops cryptic hints about something at a
"major publisher" that is "green" coming up. Stay tuned!
Price point is
$21.99 at retail, here we have classic as in the
first appearance Hal Jordan and the only correct 6 inch
scale Abin Sur as the DCD GL Box Set gave us the
incorrect uniform for Abin. Discuss all things DCUChere.

Green
Lantern movie script?
This has been floating around the internet
for a while now. It's only a first draft and the final,
shooting script may only end up baring passing
resemblance to it but it looks very promising at this
stage. I myself would change very little in it, if
anything.
