>>153506283Boy, everyone's extra stupid in a GL book, aren't they?
>>153505631>Priest acknowledging the Richard Pryor joke he stole in the beginning of the arc
>>153505756>Editor's note: John literally told Hal to steal those diamonds

>>153506968>>153506972It's always fun to see the original meme panels.
>>153506490>Editor's Note: they actually wanted Kal-El not Hal but he was off-planet at the time
That's the end! Thank you for reading!
>>153507035Thanks
>>153506987That's actually a reprint of the O'Neil and Adams page. Look at the credits on the page. Priest must have gotten triggered by it and needed to reply to it.
>>153506972
>>153504927thanks anon.
>>153505052He can create magnetised construct?!
>>153507035Thanks OP
OP, are you going to do Hal goes Nutso? I've never actually read it before.
>>153506544Malvolio looks like an extra beefy Alan Scott
>>153510311That's because he was supposed to be a permanent replacement for Alan, who at the time was banished from continuity with the rest of the JSA, in Asgard. The plan was the alien in >>153505514 was an advance agent of an invading alien armada coming to Earth to conquer it. Malvolio had been fighting them for ages and knew Hal's ring was too weak to fight them so he orchestrated the entire events of his introduction arc to get him to take Malvio's ring which would be revealed to be stronger than Hal's old school GLC ring (IIRC the plan would be that it had no weakness to Yellow and infinite energy, so no more 24 hour limit, though editorial shot this down). Malvolio would come back to reveal he was good all along and become Hal's new mentor/partner and help him stop the alien invaders and Carol, who would sacrifice her life to help stop the invaders. We sadly never got any of these; Carol's abductor turned out to be a slaver who kidnapped super powered beings to sell to bad guys to use as unwilling henchmen and her actions in this story would be retconned as being the result of both Predator, now a ghost who raped and murdered the original Zamaron queen/Star Sapphire, who's spirit was the entity that kept hijacking control over Carol's body when she was SS. Malvolio was put on "characters we never to be used again", but Ron Marz knew about him and the ring switch, hence why he EXPLICITLY had Hal ditch all of his rings at the end of Emerald Twlight, before he absorbed the energy of the main power battery/wiped out the GLC so fans couldn't argue that ET was all Malvolio's doing due to the ring swap. Ironically, Priest pitched a team book featuring Malvolio as a hero/leader of the team to explicitly state Malvolio had nothing to do with ET and affirm he was a hero all along (and finally do his alien invasion story) but DC told him to fuck off and die.
>>153510778What a mess. I think Malvolio would have made a good frienemy for hal, keeping him on his toes, but not wanting to kill him or his friends.
>>153506972Denny O'Neil and Neal Adams are burning in hell for that page
>>153510778In the end the Crisis really ruined the DC editorial with the retarded mandates
>>153506972Denny O'Neil should have been in Frank Miller's spot that fateful day in New York City.
>>153511385>>153511523wtf?
nice art
>>153515591Which one?
>>153505018Why does Hal looks like a weird Bognadoff caricature?
>>153504927Gil Kane is god tier
>>153511523Dennis probably got mugged or nearly assaulted a few times. Dude was in the Navy and was around NYC in the 70's, I'm sure he saw plenty of shit going down in NYC. Miller was so shook because he was a wide-eyed nerdy kid going into NYC in it's seediest era.
>>153517454Gil Kane
>>153506670Hal is wearing Malvolio's ring? And this is all according to his plan against the Guardian(s)? Gosh. If Hal starts acting at all unusual and did something like, I dunno, turning on the Guardians, wiping out the Green Lantern Corps, going power mad, and attempting to destroy and recreate the entire cosmos, I guess we know who is to blame. But there's no way anything like that would ever happen.
>>153510778This arc is not Priest's best writing, and he makes John retarded over and over in it.
>>153518183And he always drew such kissable lips on men
>>153505135Hey don't call them "idiots," thats so MEANNN
