    Well, Batman is all about fear, so being a Sinestro stooge makes sense. Barry as a Red? Don’t think he has the rage in him to make the cut while I never saw Arthur as a fraction as greedy as Larfleeze.

    I am glad Steve revamped Guy's character, though. It made sense during the 1980's. That is the Guy I've known since I was a kid. It is hilarious now to know he was initially a squeaky-clean do-gooder who would have died tragically saving a "Lord of the Flies" type world.

    I always thought Hal worked best as the good soldier. His anger felt real when the Guardians (under mind control) tried to strip his of his ring GL #40.

    I think the "Hal Solo" stuff is just a front to cover up that he is a highly competent, focused, and well-disciplined warrior.
    I'm ready for the Guardians going back to being wise and noble.

    I think I now r3member that Hal started his rebel phase when he decided being GL or being with Carol.

    Funny to hear that Guy started as level headed person. I was actually confused about that in JLE story arc.

    Fortunately, Morrison has firmly reestablished the Guardians as unknowable cosmic beings again. Much prefer them that way.

    I kinda don't want to go there, but another of Geoff Johns' stoic black guy brigade wields the Indigo power of compassion.

    Where is Ray Palmer when you need him?

    Soon enough, I'll be delving into the 1980's GL run, where Hal gave up the ring.

    Steve Englehart was a genius revamping Guy into a Reagan Era tough guy. Back in the day, I was confused about how a bump in the noggin could cause Guy to be nice, without Ice being around. I was not knee deep into DC back then, and the Pre-Crisis/Post-Crisis thing was very confusing to my elementary incarnation.

    I certainly prefer it that way. It seemed weird that Hal would sacrifice so much just to work for a bunch of shady a-holes.

    I'm excited with what Grant has planned for the Guardians.

    Appa going nuts and and kidnapping cities to Oa had a lot of weight for me back then. It was a Guardian that Hal was going against. I'm not sure it would have the same effect if that story happened when the Guardians were being jerks.

    I think your all taking it too seriously. It's just a fun art piece and he had to match up the seven members to the seven rings. Some might not make total sense but you gotta stick em somewhere.

    Also Cyborg is pink. Wonder Woman is indigo. Hal, Supermanent and Batman make sense. Flash was made red cuz blue is taken and that color makes sense. Aquaman is probably orange cuz of the shirt. That just leaves WW and Cyborg between pink and indigo.

    Maybe since WW was pink in Blackest Night he wanted to switch it up.

    It's a cool piece either way.
    My name is Wally West. I"m the fastest man alive. I"m the Flash.

    Favorite Heroes - 1-Flash/Wally West, 2-Superman, 3-Green Lantern/Hal Jordan, 4-Nightwing, 5-Hawkman, 6-Firestorm, 7-Supergirl/Linda Danvers, 8-Zatanna, 9-Robin/Tim Drake

    The art is great.

    For kicks, I probably would have made Arthur a red. Given the tragedies in his life, it makes sense for him to be angry (he just hides it better than Mera). Arthur might be the most disciplines member of the team, and the red ring cuts off all his inhibitions. Barry could wield the power of love. Outside Kal, Barry may be the most empathetic male on the team. I thought it was ironic, yet cool that John Stewart was briefly a Star Sapphire.

    Actually, it makes a lot of sense for Diana to wield compassion. I would have made Victor orange. Perhaps the orange power can give him more of a human body, and sharing the energy the reverts him back to cyborg. So, he hoards that power, like Larfleeze. Vic gave up a lung to save his friends, no he's looking out for #1. That would be an interesting & tragic dynamic, imo.
