So the Guardians have become full-blown villains now, then.

[shadowpsykie]

ARRRRRRG!!!!!

im sorry... i just... ugh.... no book has ever made me this angry.... give them to Atrocitus... let him take them and eat the flesh from their bones and carve out their hearts because i am DONE with them

[pyrotwilight]

Poor Ganthet. Sigh.

[sun_man]

Well at least the best Green Lantern is back in green again.


Take it to them Sinestro!!!!!!!

[shadowpsykie]

really, i don't like that... i liked him so much better when he was the leader of his own corps...

[thormonger]

Let's hear it for the Guardians of the DCnU, now with 150% more asshattery. :/

[shanejayell]

Considering how badly the guardians fucked up in Blackest Night, one would think they'd welcome other opinions.

Guess not.

Hopefully Sayd comes and rescues him.

[sherkahn]

after all the Guardians have gone through, why not?

Before "the Parallax entity" Hal went bad himself.

[flint_marko]

Shut up Ganthet, Sinestro is cooler than you.

[sherkahn]

I find it fascinating. As Thanos said : "I grow tired of the usual cycles."

And a true reformed villain might be interesting. Most of the story development has been played out with Hal as to what they can do to him.

[shadowpsykie]

If this leads to a scene where Sayd comes to the rescue and kicks sss, this MIGHT be worth it

"One should keep one's friends close and one's enemies closer."

What's the context for this quote's origin? I get the feeling that it's misused quite often.

At the very least, I'm sure that whoever came up with it never intended it to apply to psychotic world-killing monsters.

[crabby_lioness]

Alas, the DCNU also has 50% more misogyny.

[blackruzsa]

It's times like this I wish first-proto-lantern Kilala would crossover.... but that's a dream better left down.

[domino_blue]

HA GUARDIANS EVIL NEXT YOU WILL BE TELLING ME THE MONITORS ARE EVIL SPACE VAMPIRES! SO THE WATCHING MONITOR! wait...

[rdfox]

The positive: I never had much (i.e. any) investment in Green Lantern, so this doesn't cause me physical pain to read like some of the other crap that the reboot has generated.

Otherwise...

[biznizzonpeyote]

Dude, we get it. Shut up with the image already.

[shanejayell]

It's a VERY old quote. *thinks* Machiavelli?

[silverzeo]

While they're basically the ultimate authority figures, because of that, they MUST play the role of bad guy...

[biznizzonpeyote]

As much as the Guardians are detestable, there is a certain sense of logic to why they are acting so... crazed. In the last (let's just say) 5 years, they have had more crap happen, not only to them & the Corps, but the entire universe. They've had the whole Corps destroyed, had things they hoped never to happen not only happen (rival Corps, Blackest Night/Brightest Day, A WEAPON THEY MADE ESPECIALLY NOT TO KILL THEM, KILL A BEING THAT IS BIOLOGICALLY THEM), but happen within such a short time that, to them, it's almost unbelieveable. All they can do is try to keep their shit together, in the best way they can, which happens to be... this. There's a certain amount of humanity in their actions, as they try their best to make sense of a universe that, to them, is spiralling out of control.

[pyrotwilight]

I don't know. It feels more like a group that's trying to ignore changes in reality and essentially has become a dictatorship out of good intent. I mean, when's the last time a Guardian who isn't Ganthet or Sayd do something that was actually sensible or that would actually help keep the peace between the Corps?

[q99]

It's kinda funny that of all the Guardians, the one who ended up with the Orange Corps is in the best position and has the most respectable job.

[shadowpsykie]

Most of the problems are of their own making or out of a result of thier prejudices. Yes they had good intentions long ago. But that's looong ago

[shadowpsykie]

To be completely honest... That image has been getting on my nerves for the longest time

[aaron_bourque]

I long for the days before the Guardians were pricks.

They were always distant, but they were also WISE, and BENEVOLENT, and NOT ASSFUCKS.

. . .

Dammit.
