I don't think that they are planning it, but we might get it. After second issue I think I wrote that this is either going to be one of the best GL runs or a trainwreck and brushed aside very quickly. So if it ends up being bad then DC might as well reboot GL franchise.
Not really. Everyone was standing around servicing Kyle and his very 90s man-pain during that time. John was stuck in the "black best friend" role, Jade was the hot girlfriend, Alan was the girlfriend's father/mentor figure, and Guy was the ******* uncle.
...it was not a particularly great time for anyone who wasn't called Kyle Rayner.
Yes, exactly.
Same thing with the Flashes, where Wally and Bart are closer to the Golden Age version of Jay than Barry.
The Silver Age creators seemed to want to contrast their characters with whomever came before. Then the folks who came after had to contrast with the Silver Age folks.
Jay's personality has shifted from his earlier adventures, but the Earth 2 version returns to something closer to the original.
Boodikka yet another cool lantern destroyed for a meh storyline that had no lasting anything. Titans fans complain about them being cannon fodder but the GLC has a long history of it too and in both franchises a lot of characters are resurrected after silly storyline is sent to the trash bin.
I loved that Johns brought back the "Lost Lanterns", many of whom were my favorites. But in hindsight it was all just a way for him to get rid of a bunch of GL's he didn't create and make room for more Rainbow Corpsmen. The "Alpha Lanterns" arc being the cherry on top...
