    Default John Stewart: Green Lantern Appreciation 2022

    Happy New Year, everyone!



    Like so many of you, John Stewart is my favorite character of all time.

    Here's to hoping this is one of John's best years yet!

    Expecting John to be the star of that new GL animated film. Don’t know if I want it to be an origin story for John or not. On one hand we haven’t really gotten to see John’s origin outside of comics. On the other hand maybe it’s better to just skip it and dive right into John as a GL.

    I hope John is the star of the new GL animated movie. I wouldn't mind getting an origin story. Since we haven't seen one for John on screen yet.

    I'd love to see a updated origin for John, but my concern is that it'd feel fairly toothless compared to the original, which feels pretty trenchant even decades later.

    I'm leaning towards an origin for John since it's not well known to a lot of people outside of the fanbase. On top of that I want him becoming GL to be treated as a big deal and momentus occasion for the universe. Not like praising him as a god but like a pillar of the DCU is being established.

    If he does get an expanded or newer origin, I hope the writer focuses on his emotional beats and character development, rather than throw him into a mystery or plot-driven story.

    Each of his most prominent iterations has a psychological profile up on PersonalityDatabase, including the main Earth comic book version and the DCAU version.

    DCU John: ISTJ - 1w9 - so/sp - 162 - Melancholic-Phlegmatic

    DCAU John: ISTJ - 6w5 - so/sp - 612 - ESI - LVFE - Melancholic-Choleric

    If you Google comic book characters with similar characteristics, you'll find that real people like Denzel Washington and characters like the Witcher, Jim Gordon, Scott Summers, and Jason Bourne have things in common with John.

    Also, parts of his personality are pretty common comicbook collectors, lol.

    Happy New Years everyone! Let’s hope this year be another good year for John. I appreciated DCs efforts on their push for John Strewart last year. I’m looking forward to their plans for the character in comics and media adaptions this year.

    Pretty much my first green Lantern. I thought he was ok since I was still in my "Batman 4eve" phase but the GL mythos has entranced me and remembering him restoring the GLB Core in JLU was in a new light.

    Lay on us his essential reads my friends.
