I've never read it, but I assume this is basically Guy's wack-ass "Warrior" shtick when Hal went crazy and took away all the Green Lantern powers from everyone (that he didn't kill)?

Jo this is racist. You are being racist at Tomar Re.
>>
>>154022013
Once again it's impressive how much fun does Jo suck out of the book. Almost every other character is more interesting to follow than her.
>>
>>154021955
Wait, so he has Warrior's techno-organic powers? Pretty cool.
>>
Okay issue, good ending
>inb4 dur hur Absolute Cringe

Can't wait to see Sinestro kick all of their asses, but I wonder how they live through this. Do they follow part of Tomar Re's plan and distract the planet somehow? Do they actually win through pink BS? I have no clue. At this point, I'm waiting to see more Hammond. I want to see his change after the attack that happened in AGA
>>154023151
I like Jo so far, hell, I like all of them minus that random dimension hopping lady we had for that detour.
>>
>>154023151
Jo is fine imo. However I concur with >>154023432
That pink haired antifa lady was EXTREMELY random.
>>
>>154023432
its al ewing so there is no way the heroes will end up working within the trolley problem that tomar re sketched out. jo will probably find a way to get everyone floating in the lantern to become tomars, and/or they will just shoot the golden ones out of the gun.

i hope we get more arcs back on earth, but the sudden jump to conflict against sinestro makes me think that this series is cancelled at issue 18.
>>
>>154023452
I don't have a problem with the WW2 nazi killing angle, I've had fun with old DC stories. But having the equivalent to Sgt Rock pop out to deal with the problem instantly felt like Ewing built up a cool thing and immediately threw it away. He solved things too quickly. Was it some hint towards a time travel event? Will we get some weird JSA mini? I don't know, but I hope we keep getting more Absolute space shit.
>>
>>154023245
Absolute is cringe. Seriously though you are reading a jo book written by al ewing. Get your fucking head checked
>>
Why is this boring garbage still going while Absolute Martian Manhunter got cancelled?
>>
>>154023582
Absolute martian manhunter was terrible that's why. Imagine missing a Camp book lmao
>>
>>154023541
Yeah. They will introduce the antimatter universe and just throw the Qwards in there.
It will end with Jo lecturing Re about how he never gave a shit about the universe and that he only wanted to kill the enemy.
>>
>>154023651
>Dumb black bitch saying do better
Yeah that's Ewing for ya
>>
>>154023582
AMM is cancelled because Camp and Rodriguez wanted to end it. DC offered to extend it to 18 but those two wanted to do something else.
>>
>>154023682
>AMM is cancelled because Camp and Rodriguez wanted to end it
Thank God
>>
>>154021913
wonder how much Ewing is a fan of Morrowind since I'm pretty sure a similar thing gets referenced by Vivek about CHIM in that game, but tbf both this and TES take inspiration from gnosticism
>>
>>154021980
It's nice that he bothered to add little shrubs and busts of himself in the maze
>>
>>154023691
They're doing another DC book together
>>
>>154021955
I'm more surprised with Guy being actually creative in any way.

>>154023597
Tomar is clearly a show off.
>>
>>154021995
That's an interesting plan and concept overall.

DC offered them a project they said they couldn't refuse and was also told they can come back to AMM later if they want

>>154023452
I think that woman was supposed to be Hawkgirl(/woman? I'm not well-versed in the Hawk lore) and we're getting Thanagar-related stuff later
>>
>>154021955
That's the second time a hero in this universe has weaponised his stomach acid now

You know, now that we've seen so many aliens speak normally, can we safely conclude that even among aliens Abin Sur was just simply autistic?
>>
>>154022004
I'm so glad they found this artist. I don't even mind the webtoon art, but this scene wouldn't have worked with it, at all.
>>
Fun issue
But it taking 15 issues to even get to displaying how the lantern powers are used is wild, we've only really seen the black Lantern stuff up until now and they're now being presented as a potential corruption anyway
>>
>>154024147
You mean the sideways wheel is an I part?
>>
>>154028777
The build up was slow indeed, but with how much they covered in those issues, I'm hoping it'll be explosive for the rest of the run. Boom, Sinestro. Boom, more CIA shenanigans. Boom, Hammond. Ewing has a billion strings hanging to play around with, and there's still the eventual team up and potenttial for future space adventures. He just has to not fuck it up
>>
>>154022004
>simple constructs suck ass and are easy to banish precisely because they’re simple
I’m looking forward to Sinestro beating Re’s ass.
>>
>>154028777
It may or may not be a corruption, but I'm leaning more towards it not being a corruption. Since this is the Darkseid universe, and they go one about Will, it really feels like that's the uncorrupted version, and it's weird ass existential philosophizing that is "corrupting" it into a "Good" form.
>>
>>154021913
Ok
>>
>>154021924
The lights kind of suck
>>
>>154028803
yeah
The I is a Tower if I remember correctly, but it's another example of basic making a 2D image into the 3D image as a metaphor for enlightenment and learning the secrets of the universe
>>
>>154022033
Can someone explain what's up with the blackstars, Mogo, and Sinestro? How is it connected to the black hand Hal had?
>>
>>154023582
It was a mini series, than it was extended to 12 issues.
>>
>>154027358
Imagine if Mogo and Sinestro go down by issue 18 lol
>>
>>154029576
I mean, they just have to go through with Tomar Re's plan and it'll probably work.
>>
>>154029576
wouldn't be surprised really. In any case I wouldn't expect any of these guys to last too long.
>>
>>154027358
>not posting covers because THEY ARE REALLY BAD, like bad on purpose or tumblr tier
like thats a reason not to post them, dont be a coward
>>
>>154029576
Mogo will be purified by Hal Jordan as the blackstars, and Sinestro will become fixated on him, because Hal's Love and Willpower have him dominate everything.

Also Jo will obviously begin develop feelings towards him again, since absolute carol ferris is working for hector hammond.
>>
>>154028995
Hammond will be Absolute Black Hand after the events of Absolute Green Arrow.

>>154021913

>>154028777
I still don't get the powers here
Tomar Re and Guy are both Red Light right? Why are they so drastically different?
>>
>>154032373
Guy is trained under Oan philosophy and mindset, but specifically under John, who himself is learning the powers at the same time, Tomar Re just did his own thing for 10 years working out what he could and couldn't do
>>
too little, too late for this book
>>
>>154029539
The Black is chaotic action
>>
>>154032451
more interesting than Flash imo
>>
>>154032556
Mirror Master issue was great, Linda has really helped that book, like what they've done with Grodd
>>
>>154032609
I like both right now, they finally upped their pace and I'm getting into it. It does feel nice to catch up on the entire wave, I didn't even do that for UU
>>
Absolute Cringe
>>
Book is probably the best DC book right now
>>
>>154021909
Editors really needed to step in and get GL, Flash and Superman absolute comics moving a lot faster right from the start. I suspect they lost a lot of potential readers because of months of boring crap at the beginning of the series
>>
>>154029539
The Black, Red, Green, and Gold powers are all related, but there's two competing perspectives on how they work. One perspective goes from "Black" being "mindless action" to "Gold" being "complete intentional inaction." The other, the ones the Black Stars lead, is that it's Gold that is "complete passivity" to Black as "complete and unrestrained Will."

The Black hand IS what the Blackstars have, but used by fully diving into it instead of trying to restrain yourself like Hal was.

We don't know what the wider setting is here, though. The "Oans" are the ones going around recruiting the non-Black colors, but it seems like there's still a place for it in their paradigm. The Blackstars only seem to care about Black wielders and don't really seem to recruit any other colors even as part of their training.
>>
We can’t read this, the writer is white and it’s an ensemble book
>>
>>154031843
I hope not, I know Absolute won't last forever, but GL doesn't have that many big villains that aren't ringbearers and Ewing has already brought in most of GLs big villains already esp considering Sinestro is kinda eating from Cyborg Superman's plate here...
>>
>>154037230
In fairness, only Jo's an actual "ring bearer" in this one. Everyone else just gets a flame aura somehow. Given how Obsidian ended up in this story, if Handmond becomes THE Black Hand, it won't really be like the blackstars there, exactly.
