It really is amazing how big of a push John is finally getting. Should have happened properly around Rebirth for that sweet sweet DCAU synergy but I guess those creators who grew up with JL/JLU finally have the opportunity to do it right now.

John was one of the first Black superheroes I was exposed to as a kid thanks to the DCAU. I’m so happy my guy is getting a huge push. It’s been a long time coming. Now all we need is for things to get off the ground in live action.

Really, my only complaint about John in this movie is how they adapted his GL look.
Also I hope his architectural interest comes through and it's not just Marine Superhero 100% of the time.

They do say John is discharged so we may get some nods to his architect roots, but given the movie seems to involve a war I expect them to go hard on Stewart as a soldier who lived through one war and is now thrust into another.

John was one of the first Black superhero I've known growing up thanks to the JL/JLU cartoons. He brought in so many fans. I'm glad that DC is finally being loyal to his fanbase. Originally Posted by BlackClaw

Yeah, the suit is similar to his first appearance. So I'm sure it's based off of that. I'm sure his suit will be updated to his modern look later on. Originally Posted by Frontier

I don’t hate the design myself although I’d rate the DCAU look above it.For when my rants on the forums just aren’t enough: https://thevindicativevordan.tumblr.com/

I'm thinking it's a temporary design and it was based off of when he first became a GL. Originally Posted by Vordan

John Stewart is both a military marine AND an architect.... His architectural skills influence his Green Lantern constructs but look at the rubbish constructs that this animated movie is giving him?!? Urrgh!!!
And being a marine/ military veteran provide more than just fighting skills but also knowledge on organisational structure with a focus on efficiency and results regarding training, deployment, battle/ war strategy, etc.
Green Lantern John Stewart is NOT one dimensional .....being an architect makes him a builder and being a marine/ military makes him a protectors (and/ perhaps even a destroyer)... BOTH of these aspects heavily influence what and who he is as a Green Lantern whereby he understands fully the responsibility of being part of an inter-galactic police force dedicated to preserving/ saving lives, building trust and support across different species, etc which certain.
Another brilliant angle of John Stewart is that sometimes he struggles between the 2 aspects of himself where his builder/ architect side comes into conflict with his destroyer/ military side.
It's both these aspects that made him noticed directly by the Guardians later making him LEADER of the Green Lantern Corps and .... recently....ascended becoming a literal cosmic being.
All these are superb nuances of John Stewart which we should be seeing in this animated movie
*I hope this animated movie does well enough for it to get a sequel or animated series in the HOPE that BOTH aspects of John Stewart are exhibited and explored.* Or the trailer is saving his architectural skills for those who watch this animated movie.....but I doubt it.
