John Stewart: Green Lantern Appreciation 2023

[Sodam Yat]

Oh right I forgot the remnants of the Snyder Cult were doing another hashtag campaign today.

yeah lol. I think they're urging Netflix to have the Snyder Cut. I don't see how that would work though.

they are stupid.

it won't happen.

[Holt]

I can't decide between Murphyverse John and Snyderverse John that I have less interest in.

[John Venus]

I hate John Stewart as an FBI agent. Not because the idea is bad, in fact it's preferable to him being 'the soldier' all the time, but because I had similar idea where John was working for an agency (not FBI) and now if I actually post it, people are going to think I was copying Murphy.

John...29? Id say he should at least be 35.

They also have Jimmy Olsen being younger than Jason Todd. lol I don't believe this is meant to actually be the characters' canonical age, more like DC's social media manager was being rather bored on this day.

That’s my take, since it’s pointless to give hard ages to Big 2 characters anyway. They’re as old as the story needs them to be.

Who knows nowadays w/DC.

John is supposed to be younger than the members of the Satellite Era. I can definitely see him in his early 30s.

Murphyverse (Batman: White Knight) John Stewart has debuted in the last issue of Beyond the White Knight, and it seems like he’s going to be involved in the sequel series. He’s an FBI Agent along with Diana. Not that I expect him to be treated well mind you, but figured I’d share

Of fucking course their FBI agents, fucking Murphy

[Anthony Shaw]

the canon's the canon.

Hal got his ring because Abin Sur's ship crashed and he was the nearest person to fit the necessary criteria which, apparently, is just the ability to overcome great fear.

Guy got his ring because, apparently, for some reason, Hal needed a back-up.

John was marked as a future ascended being by the Guardians which is why he got his ring. Training wheels.

Kyle got his ring because, as Ganthet put it, "you'll have to do." Right place, right time, no special qualities beyond luck.

(Can't remember why Simon and Jess got theirs.)

Jo got her ring because Nemosyni needed an 'off-the-grid' Lantern with a prototype ring that wouldn't be affected by Koyos's schemes.

The original notion of "back-up GLs" doesn't even make sense. If a GL falls, the ring finds a replacement. "Back-ups" aren't necessary. Another will be found right away.

I agree, John being chosen works for me.

It also humorously hints at a reason why John and Guy have better working relationships with the Guardians than Hal.

Just post it anyway. I'm sure you'll find a way to make it distinct.

That's an interesting ensemble.

Has anyone rewatched that?

Good to know I’m not the only one who thought he should be way older
