    It’s not like they don’t have a bunch to go around. I mean, th lantern line is overstaurated at this point. And since I’m still warming up to Jessica Cruz, I’d still be more interested in Hal’s reaction to dodging a bullet.

    It's news like this that makes me feel justified in reading back issues and manga nowadays. A creatively bankrupt gimmick to kill off some of DC's most recognisable and iconic characters in another 'DC's heroes face an overwhelming unknown dark force' event storyline is just painfully redundant. If DC are using this to push the 5G lineup of heroes, it won't take longer than 6 months for sales to tank harder than they already have been.

    Also, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and Martian Manhunter have all 'died' within the last few years, so DC killing them off again is utterly hilarious.

    Actually they don't! Hal is fine, John is depowered and currently involved in an ascension plot, Guy and Kyle are missing, Jessica joined the Sinestro Corps, Simon is depowered and using armour. There's only three Green Lanterns left - Jo Mullein, Hal Jordan, and Keli "Teen Lantern" Quintela.

    Me: I need more Zatanna!

    DC: We're putting her in JL! (so we can kill her).

    lol Yeah I thought Zatanna was an odd choice that just came out of nowhere. Let's put her in just to "kill" her off.

    I think this is just indicative of the fact that John was the featured Lantern in this JL run. In perspective he's really been the only GL majorly featured in it, wouldn't make much sense if any other GL was part of the last issue of that same run.

    She could be the survivor

    I had such high hopes for Infinite Frontier when it started, and the initial mini involved people like Alan Scott and Roy Harper.

    Oh, how naive I was.

    Wait a minute, third act of Infinite Frontier, Dark Army, supposed death.... I think I've figured out where the League went already and what's happened to them. It's Pariah.

    Okay so some context for those who haven't been reading, at the end of Infinite Frontier Barry goes beyond the known Multiverse and runs into Pariah and the dead remains of Multiverse-2 which died in the first Crisis but has been fed upon by the Gentry/The Empty Hand. But then Pariah disintegrated Barry and remade him on a picturesque world designated Earth.Flash.1.

    That's where the league will be, captured by Pariah and put in their own perfect earths but made to look like they died. I'm confident in this.

    Two of whom, I don’t know. Not that I care, but Are the other lanterns coming back for this?

    And she's still wearing the JLD costume.

    I had the same reaction to artists not getting the memo that Aquaman isn't shirtless anymore.

    I wonder if their solo books will reflect this.

    Seeing the title, my first thought was that Death of the Endless was joining the Justice League.

    However long, there's no question about them coming back soon enough.

    Judging from the third picture Holt sent which there is not Zatanna (CMIIW), she could be the survivor, maybe pulling a trick like at the end of new 52 JLD.

If even the character himself doesn't take his deaths seriously, why would the readers.
    How many time Hal has died? I think Bruce parents and Giovanni Zatara could be contenders against him xd

    Done with DC. Can't handle the constant whiplash! Time to go on a hiatus!
