Reblog this on the first of the month for good luck all month long!
why hasn't no one posted the kringlefucker yet. you guys used to love the kringlefucker.
*the purpose of this list is to provide several places to get you excited about some of the green lanterns you will get to know, so you feel it's worth it to invest your time into reading longer arcs/books. this is not meant to be an exhaustive list as "every single good green lantern story in existence"
mosaic world (green lantern (1990) #14-17 + green lantern mosaic (1992) #1-18; a guardian of the universe, driven mad by loneliness, kidnaps john stewart and begins terraforming oa by kidnapping entire cities from planets all across the galaxy)
emerald twilight (green lantern (1990) #48-50; origin of parallax. you can get away with not knowing the death of superman because of doomsday in the 1990s, but it provides a lot of context regarding why coast city specifically)
green lantern: circle of fire (2000) [reading order found here; the world is attacked by a mysterious figure known as oblivion, can kyle, along with other green lanterns from divergent timelines, defeat him]
green lantern corps: recharge (2005) #1-5 [i know i know it's written by geoff johns and this is following hal's "redemption arc" but there are legitimately good kyle & guy & kilowog moments in this limited series; as well as the first appearance of soranik, a doctor from korugar, struggling between her duty to her patients as a doctor and her duty to protect the greater community if she accepts the power ring]
the omega men (2015) #1-12 [this is a controversial pick, but i do stand by it because it offers a surprisingly thoughtful critique of the military industrial complex and how even after kyle telling his experiences on vega to the general, he still lauds him as a hero, oblivious to what kyle is trying to say. in my mind this is one of the better written stories of kyle as the white lantern]
far sector (2021) [a 12 issue mini-series featuring sojourner mullien, as much a detective as she is a gl, solving a murder that threatens the harmony of the planet she's stationed on]
long time no dp/ppg crossover
Fic prompt, Young Justice era:
Robin(Tim) and Superboy break into the Fenton Ops Center after discovering a faction of the DEO that was created exclusively for dealing with ghosts.
They came across this sub-agency while combing through hacked documents after saving Greta, and found out the Department of Extranormal Operations formed the Ghost Investigation Ward and gets special ghost-hunting weapons from mad scientist inventors in a small Illinois town.
Danny (with his sharper senses) hears the break in and goes to investigate with the Fenton Creep Stick. Robbers get hired on occasion to steal inventions that aren’t patented yet. He hears movement just on the other side of the door and goes in swinging. Hits Superboy in the back and makes him stumble, which causes serious alarm from the two heroes.
“That actually almost hurt!” Superboy says in surprise, staring wide-eyed at the new kid holding a splintered baseball bat.
“You cracked the Creep Stick,” Danny stares at the bat with his mouth open. “I didn’t know it could break.”
“Rob? I think this guy has powers.”
Danny looks up, blinking in shock, “Your name is Rob? And you became a Robber? Dude. You don’t have to define yourself by what your parents named you.”
Superboy tries to hide his laughter while Robin sputters. “I’m not - They didn’t -”
“Oh!” Danny has an epiphany. “Did you name yourself that? I chose my name too, but I’m just Danny. I didn’t go and name myself after an illegal profession. Like, can you imagine if I was an arsonist named Bernie? Or a skeevy car salesman named Otto? I know it’s hard to choose a name when you’re trans, and, I gotta admit, being a robber named Rob is hilarious, but there’s more options out there, I promise. For names and career paths.”
Superboy is wheezing at this point and Robin’s face is near fuchsia. Instead of addressing any of that, Robin gets angry.
“We aren’t robbers! We’re heroes! I’m Robin. that’s Superboy. Your parents sell weapons that hurt people and we’re here to stop that!”
Danny tosses the broken Creep Stick over his shoulder and smiles wide.
“Why didn’t you say so! Oh man, this is great. I’ve been sabotaging their stuff for years. If you’re here to help I’ve got a couple projects you can definitely smash.”

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.
So uh….some dude apparently recreated Adobe Photoshop feature-for-feature, for FREE, and it runs in your browser.
Anyway, fuck Adobe, and enjoy!
I wasn't aware of this one, so I'm trying to spread the word.
