From The Onion:
'Green Lantern' To Fulfill America's Wish To See Lantern-Based Characters On Big Screen
Funny, but also on point in that though Green Lantern is a upper tier character in the DC Universe, most mainstream folks have only a vague idea who he is.
Is there such thing as a Green Lantern fan from "back in the day"? I don't mean someone who merely likes Green Lantern, but a true die-hard fan with kids named Hal, Guy, and Jade.
My father-in-law didn't name his kids after Green Lantern, but he's a die-hard Alan Scott fan and commented on my FB wall about the film. He's 75.
ReplyDeleteAlan has a place in the Drewniverse - whether or not he's still alive, I'm unsure. I like the old JSA types, but DC does have a point that they are sort of tied to a certain time period.
