Two more pages from Green Lantern #42 if this won't make you think the Guardians are jackasses, nothing will.

The GL's and Guardians whilst fighting eventually get Larfleeze to listen again and the Guardians and Larfleeze strike a new deal with Larfleeze wanting to know only one thing (since Hal finally used his Blue ring and it escaped)






I can only hope that at this point the Blue Lanterns alliance with the Indigo Tribe has come through since the Blue's are virtually defenseless without a GL there.

It's all getting kind of unimaginative

This is why we've never seen the blue before. Natural selection. They just don't last too long.

And I'm just going to say it: Johns still hasn't convinced me there's any kind of loss. The blue are just so...INSIPID. I have a hard time thinking only the yellow and green wielders have full personalities. The other rings have the AMAZING ABILITY to allow Johns to write totally one-note characters.

Also: Hey blue lanterns! Be useful! Go to more dead planets and restore them! Or do you only do that to impress Jordan?

I'm serious. The thing is, their use doesn't appear to be COMBAT. I think it's a little silly that, well...all these rings with all their particularities, and they ALL use them to fight? Seems to me the Blue are better used like medics or chaplains, as one example. Or like the Army Corps of Engineers. Or FEMA(if it was effective).

I got the impression from the various prep notes that the Indigo (tribe) Lanterns were the medics.

I don't see why Hope can't fight. You can do a helluva lot in the name of hope.

That's so, but we're talking about Johns' version of "hope."
