Why are there so many goddamn human Green Lanterns?
Why are there so many goddamn human Green Lanterns?
Other members of the Corps keep dying close to Earth.
Remember the ring finds the next closest viable candidate.
You're complaining about a handful of human Lanterns in the single digits within the THOUSANDS that make up the entire Corp? Also Earth has a lot of traffic/shitty stuff happening around it.
If you're really bothered by the "too many human Green Lanterns" thing, there's a good chance you just don't like the Green Lantern concept
Cause the most powerful lanterns come from earth.
Because it's a fictional organization created by humans so there's naturally a bias.
Diversity reasons. They don't make up a large population of the universe but literally almost all media focus.
>THOUSANDS
Compared to how many sentient races in the universe?
millenium answers your questions user
>A
Willpower is the trait humans are most known for compared to other races, not just in DC but frequently throughout fiction.
>B
They live on the planet that all life originated from in DC
Human just have a lot of willpower compared to other species.
Out of trillions of lifeforms that have existed, only Alan Scott, a human, was able to conquer the Starheart.
Make sense that GL rings would seek out a race like humans.
Hundreds, that we've seen.
i, for one, welcome more animal as lanterns
Actually the number of space fairing races in the universe should be relatively small, and the GLC doesn't interfere with "domestic disputes" of most worlds. Furthermore, they don't hand out power rings like candy considering how dangerous they are.
What animal would make for the best lantern?
Dog green lantern to compliment corgi blue lantern?
Earth is simultaneously a shitty neighborhood and the most important place in the multiverse.
I fucking love this picture
do they have a more recent one with jessica in it?
A CHALLENGER APPROACHES!
earth is where the (((next))) guardians of the universe will evolve, apparently
I thought they were gonna be the Fifth World, after the Fourth World ends
Humans are inherently awesome.
Human race is the master race.
While i do like what it’s become I’m not a huge fan of the idea.
Because Earth is the Mexico of the DC universe.
That's not true. GLC intervenes with specific worlds all the time. Most prominent example was shutting down Sinestro when he was dicking up Korugar. He wasn't bothering anyone but his own planet but they shut him down hard and fast regardless. Also there was shit with Iolande's planet iirc, and so forth.
It is not even the fact that Sinestro is in a beekeeper outfit that did me in, it is that Sinestro is in a beekeeper outfit, laughing evilly in triumph.
That's a special case because ITS FUCKING SINESTRO FUCKING WITH A WORLD WITH A POWER RING
A fly
allegedly
humans are the best species and earth is the best planet, why do you think Darkseid spends like 80% of his time here? He doesn't really care about the anti-life equation that's just what he tells assholes like Steppenwolf to get them off his back when they want him to come back to Apokolips to fix the toilets and mow the lawn or whatever.
If earth is so nice why doesn't he try to defend it
Sector 6 is a mess. I'm not joking, Earth is the most dangerous place in the Universe because multiverse sheningans.
Too many human GL, too many Bats, too many Spiders, too many Krytonians, too many Sayains
What about Atrocitus?
Then why not send other seasoned Corp members there, like police precincts?
They do sometimes, when shit gets real bad, but mostly is like said, they don't intervine unless they absolutly have too.
>too many Sayains
Nobody complain about too many saiyans. People do complain about saiyans being OP all the time.
Not necessarily a bias, but it has to appeal to the audiencez
They keep getting promoted to honor guard, so the Sector keeps getting replacements, and they generally recruit from the planet of the previous Lantern except in cases of death where the ring grabs the nearest mark.
Kyle was the Torchbearer
John was the Messiah
Guy was Guy
and Hal just gets to do whatever he wants
Is there a galactic UN in DC? Why aren't humans a space faring race?
well he's gotta keep up appearances, it would be like seeing your personal trainer eating at Dunkin Donuts if Darkseid tried to save earth, nobody would know what to think. So mostly he's got to pretend he's trying to take over even though every time he invades he spends like a month hanging around "foreshadowing" it when really he's just crashing on people's couches when they're out of town
yeah yeah, also that, and whatever else the next big crossover decides lol
Watch is in sector 2814
Let me put it this way.
Imagine the most backwards, miserable, war-torn, crime infested city on some middle eastern shithole of a country. It's nothing less than a miracle that this city hasn't burned to ground or blown to bits by bombings.
Now imagine that this city is built on top of a magic linchpin. If this linchpin is destroyed or tampered with, it would destroy the entire planet.
This is what Earth is to the rest of the DC universe.
Earth has the hottest chicks.
'Cause you want a character that can act and be interesting both in space and on Earth. Also because fuck aliens humies are the best. Also muh representation, being represented by a human is not enough, it has to be of their same race/mental disability, etc. Won't be surprised if they announce a trans GL soon.
But I *would* be for more alien GL's in the vein of Arisia instead of single-eyed six-armed potato-shaped Lanterns.
Gonna have to explain that one.
What is there to explain? It is what it is.
He jobs because he's constantly training Earth to defend itself from bigger threats so that he'll never have to personally defend it and risk his image.
why the fuck are there so many human green lanterns but almost none of any other color
As in what, idiot? Because it has great food? Because it's filled with organized crime? Because it offends the pansy aliens? Because they steal alien's wimmenz? Because humans make up the majority of the beings that leave their homeworld?
Can summer end?
You have a black one, an arab, two hispanic ones, two white ones. What the fuck other color do you want you ridiculous nincompoop?
John got his ring because Hal slipped on soap and knocked out. Rather he got Hal's ring so naturally he'd end up getting his own after that.
Because all of the other Lanterns were only just recently introduced while the Green Lantern Corps has about 40+ years of comic history on them.
There's been some permanent picks and a lot of temps:
>Rankkor
>Carol Ferris
>Frank Laminski had literally every spectrum with the Phantom Ring
>Dela Pharon
>Wonder Woman
>Scarecrow
>Barry Allen
>Atom
>Batman
>Lex Luthor
>Deadman
>Black Hand
I want a human in the sinestro corps
Guy was a Red Lantern and Carol is a Star Sapphire. At multiple points, the earth had different lanterns from other lantern corps.
Like that time multiple earthmen were possessed by the Emotional Totems.
Are you legit retarded or what?
Its a beautiful planet but Earth is a shithole compare to the greater universe. Its Earth problems spill out beyond its sector and onto other sectors. Some of the greatest universal and multiversal criminals and murders are from it. Its a divided planet with many different factions attempting a power play.
Fucking Hal
Speaking of which, I absolutely hate it when writers decide Batman should just be able to use the Green Lantern ring just because he's Batman. It cheapens the idea of Hal having the most "WILL".
That said yellow is a perfect fit for him and I wish we could see more Yellow Lantern Batman
Cute af
Bruce is still have difficults at using a Green Lantern power ring and is incompetent with a Yellow Lantern power ring. Even Superman managed to use the Yellow Lantern power ring better than Batman.
Aaaaaaaaaa
