Just finished reading Red Lanterns #14... not sure why, but something about this issue gives me the distinct impression that all (or at least most) of the Guardians that have gone nutso and "purged" themselves of emotion are gonna die and the Guardians that were imprisoned with the First Lantern will take their places. Crazy speculation? or am I on to something.... It doesn't matter if it's 50 Cents or 50 Dollars - if you list it as NM it better be NM.Xylob's Most Wanted:    G.I.Joe Special Missions TPB 2 Tales from the Transformers Beast Wars: Critical Mass Transformers: Timelines #3 - either cover, no preference. Problems with CCL? 615-264-4747 Offices are open M-F 8am-5pm Central Time.

New 52 isn't exactly dazzling me... There's still a lot of ret-conning going on at the same time they're trying to build a "major" storyline across all the Lantern titles. Sometimes reading them seems more like work than pleasure. But I am finally getting into this new arc, so maybe the slow build is going to amount to something. Not sure who the mastermind is behind Rise though, so if it's Johns expect it to just fizzle out into nothing instead of ending or having any kind of impact (Blackest Night).

Considering what I just saw in this month's Previews that just came out: I'm not sure if those Guardians will survive. The First Lantern that they're guarding gets out.
...hmm, maybe they're the ones that end up releasing The First Lantern. It was shown that they are starting to question the current Guardian's motives. ***CHECK OUT MY COMIC TRADING LIST, CLICK HERE******TRADE VIDEO GAMES WITH ME, CLICK HERE******TRADE COMIC CARDS WITH ME, CLICK HERE***Make sure that you read and understand the forum rules here

interesting... I haven't picked up a Previews in over a decade, mostly because they aren't free anymore, but also a lot because they always had just a little too much spoiler in 'em.

I like the story so far and have enjoyed Red Lanterns from the get-go for some reason. Really can't explain it, but it's kept me intrigued, but, then again, when it comes to comics I am kinda the same way that Kevin Smith described his buddy Jason Mewes - "dude's never read a bad comic." Prolly will wind up going back and reading the story again when its complete so I can read it straight through in order.

I've considered dropping Red Lanterns several times... the writing and art are both mediocre in my opinion. I have a feeling it won't be around for much longer anyway - same for New Guardians.

As long as they keep Red Lanterns and New Guardians tied strongly to the story in the main GL title, they'll sell. "We cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are." ~Max De Pree

I get the feeling that Third Army and First Lantern will do away with most of the other Corps.

They're "evil" characterizations of the Red Lanterns comes off as forced, like a bad Black Metal band. ***CHECK OUT MY COMIC TRADING LIST, CLICK HERE******TRADE VIDEO GAMES WITH ME, CLICK HERE******TRADE COMIC CARDS WITH ME, CLICK HERE***Make sure that you read and understand the forum rules here

no, but I have a suspect it may be a post-CoIE Grant Morrison creation.

Seems strange that The Guardians would imprison or even worry about someone from another universe, though. Seems they've got enough to worry about in their own universe, let alone policing alternate-universes. ***CHECK OUT MY COMIC TRADING LIST, CLICK HERE******TRADE VIDEO GAMES WITH ME, CLICK HERE******TRADE COMIC CARDS WITH ME, CLICK HERE***Make sure that you read and understand the forum rules here
