Does it still count as fridging if a woman does it?
>>
>>156242985
Yes, but arguably Katma's Katma Balls characterized enough not to fit the bill of paperthin emotional tug.

What's supposed to be happening in the last three panels? This artist needs to go back to art school. Awful costume too.

The wiki says that Katma is "sliced to death".

Wtf was going on in that GL run?

Comics are so fucking retarded.

why would Galactus even care what Hal does, let alone dress like that they are from different universes
>>
>>156242985
Fridging isn't real. The book is not called Superheroes Girlfriend. Anything that happens in the book, in any story, is for the sake of supporting the MC's tale.

Hal looks like he could use some lip balm

It was the late 80s, Dark Knight Returns and Watchmen were such massive successes that the DC mainline was all in on darker and edgier mature content.

Priest is one of the better writers.

He was really letting his freak flag fly in that run.

>>156249519
That's a shame because this is total dogshit.

>>156249969
It's fine, certainly one of the better GL runs.

It's not fine, it's terrible.
>certainly one of the better GL runs
That's meaningless.

>>156250406
I don't see how it's terrible other than that it makes you uncomfortable.

What’s dogshit about it? Prist’s run is really underrated imo. It felt like the first time a writer was really having fun with a ring that can make anything. First time the whole “fearlessness” as a criteria for choosing a Green Lantern was scrutinized. Lord Molvolio was a fun villain. Priest (the character) was also a good addition and laid the foundations for the ring’s green energy being something the ring tapped into as a cosmic force rather than being made just by the central battery. The John and Katma relationship was fairly boring and John’s character development running from this moment all the way through Mosaic was really strong.

I'm not uncomfortable. It just sucks.

The cheapness and general crap writing cut through all of that.

What’s cheap and crap about it? I asked why it’s shit and you said it’s because it’s because it’s cheap and crap. Next you’ll tell me it’s cheap and crap because it’s poopy caca

Hhhot.

Priest despises his rub; he basically was given plots to write by his editor and only allowed to write dialogue and given explicit mandates (kill Katma, remove John from play, pretty much turn everyone against Hal to replicate Hal being like Peter Parker, a hard luck loser the last one creating such controversy as far as Oliie rejecting a homeless Hal that DC had to write TWO fucking stories making Ollie grovel for forgiveness) and in general) and got fired when he created Malovio as an explicit replacement for Alan Scott and tried to change Hal's ring to be more like Kyle's.

Basically Carol sliced.Katna's throat and cut her body so deep with slices that she bled to death.

But because Carol was shown earlier in the issue dismembering a dummy of Hal, a lot of people (as was the case with Alex, Kyle's GF) thought Carol sliced Katma up and left a pile of severed limbs and a decapitated head for Hal and John

Oh, of course.

Guy made Hal an apologetic loser in the 70s and plotted Emerald Twilight because he thought the story as pitched and Hal Jordan himself were boring.
>>
>>156249903
hawt
>>
>>156256162
What horshit is this? It was Dooley the one that canned Gerard Jones' pitch.
Then Emerald Twilight was plotted by committee by Levitz, Carlin, Goodwin and O'Neal. So the blame of ET doesn't fall on him solely.

True, but he was a big part of it and put his name out there when they did it.
