    Default Golden Age Green Lantern (Alan Scott) Appreciation (2019)

    I'm not sure if the original (pre-New52) Alan Scott ever had his own, separate appreciation thread or not, so why not take time to honor this version specifically in 2019?

    I miss Alan, I hope when he finally returns he has his classic outfit. I fear for a lame redesign.

    Alan is great. One of my favorite GL comics is #40 where Hal teams up with Alan for the first time in the series where Krona is introduced. his later team ups in the series were also a lot of fun.

    He was a pretty good minor mentor for Kyle as well.

    Alan and Kyle together was my first introduction to reading Green Lantern. Love them to death.

    Alan going to the cops with that confession would not look good for Alan. lol

    "Yes"

    I always stay up to date and do rewatches pretty frequently. I will never get tired of hearing him rag on bad comics, especially the New 52.

    Agreed. First time I read him was back in JSA and then I just sort of fell for his character. I wonder if they will keep his new or old origin when he shows up.

    With Doomsday Clock it seems like it will probably be something familiar.
