Red Lanterns #33 - "Atrocities, Part 2 of 4: Old Battles"

[arbre_rieur]

"The ring has been treated as this poisonous element that needs to be purged as quickly as possible. However, that's a very Green perspective on the whole thing." -- Charles Soule





"Everything."

Guy discusses how things have been with him and the Red Lanterns and their recent troubles with Atrocitus.



Meanwhile, Skallox has managed to track down Atrocitus's faction of the Red Lanterns. They're actually on Skallox's old homeworld of Styge Prime:

Oh shit, this won't end well. Though I am liking Atrocious' whole 'Blood Messiah' motif he has going on.

Man, screw Skallox for turning on the Gardner Reds. Unless this is some sort of cunning plan, in which case you might want to sell you pleading face a bit more. Do George Bluth Sr's pleading face, or something.

Also, I'm kinda sad that Soule's breaking up his Red Lanterns. Ratchet got shot, Supergirl destroyed her ring, Skallox got turned, Rankorr's feral again...

I think Skallox is bluffing (bluthing?) them to get info. he seemed to be pretty Loyal....

i HOPE that Guy sorta stays the leader of the Reds, and they continue this new path. i mean i like the idea that Rage isn't something that is bad, just volitile, Guy knows how to focus it, and these lanterns have become Better through him. he is a real leader. something that i don't think he could have been with the Greens

"I hope that Guy sorta stays the leader of the Reds, and they continue this new path."

Shadowpsykie, you have the capacity for great hope. Welcome to the new Blue Lantern Corps. FWOOOM! Anyway, if the Reds do get broken up, I wish they'd at least keep Soule around for at least 50 issues or so, I'd have something to look forward in addition to Snyder and the other Bat-titles.

Also Skallox should do something like this: https://image-cdn.zap2it.com/images/arrested-development-oscar-website-cabin-show-season-3.gif

Wait, you can destroy a Lantern Ring?

[zapbiffpow]

Oddly enough, yes, in one of the latest whatever Supergirl issue that was.

I've heard of rings blowing up and stuff, but I've never been privy to the specifics of how, why, and what it takes to do so.

There was this one GL who used an about-to-break ring like some kind of nuclear grenade, or something, although I can't remember where.

Fatality is one of those characters where I am utterly SHOCKED that she's still around.

And completely weirded out that her and John are together.

[md84]

So something bad happened with Fatality? Shocking.

Are Green Lanterns from Earth just doomed to have unhappy love lives?

All heroes from DC are. Didn't you get the New 52 memo?

(No, really. That comes from editorial.)
