This website was the first to break the story about DC having a homo superhero.

They’ll have to change the name to the “Brown Lantern.”

I’ll stick with the old R. Crumb comics.

If DC wants to put themselves out of business, go ahead.

How did this work out for “Alpha Flight”??

The original green lantern had a girlfriend and he ultimatly married her. (I believe two characters were his children (obsidian?))

Every website has restated this story with a new victim. batman, superman, and now original green lantern.

His weakness was wood btw. THERE are going to be a plethora of wood jokes if this pans out.

“In brightest day, in blackest night,
no evil shall escape my sight!
Let those who worship evil’s might,
beware my power.. Green Lantern’s light!”

Talk about worshiping evil. What could be more evil than legitimizing homosexuality to kids?.

Obsidian is the codename of Todd Rice, who is the biological son of Alan Scott and Rose Canton, respectively the Golden Age superhero Green Lantern and villain Thorn.

His sister is Jade. She is essentially one big emerald power source. She is Obsidian’s twin sister.

So to make this character a homosexual, they have to kill off two other characters.

Yowza! See my online prediction here:

.............

Well, okay, I didn't exactly predict this, but I did mention Flash, Aquaman, Green Lantern, and Green Arrow in my posts here.

You had to figure it was a second-tier or third-tier superhero, not Superman or Batman, but somebody who was almost forgotten nowadays.

Of those I mentioned, Green Arrow was the most obscure and forgotten, and thus the most likely to be resurrected in this way.

But this gives Green Arrow relationship with his youthful sidekick Speedy (and they all had youthful sidekicks or onetime selves in those days) a disturbing turn.

so then there will be shaft jokes? bow jokes? not so straight arrow jokes?

Your premise does keep with the homosexuals’ practice of claiming the dead.

Meanwhile; the cover of Astonishing X-Men #51 portrays an inter-racial ‘wedding’ between two sodomites...that will be released in a couple of weeks. There are images ‘out there’ at some of the comic forums...

“His weakness was wood btw. THERE are going to be a plethora of wood jokes if this pans out.”

that could be the reason to pick him, as the left likes to coat their bs with humor to get the populace to go along with it

simple solution. contact DC and explain that you will no longer allow your kids to read their comics. any comic that feels it needs to indoctrinate children with their pedo friendly bs doesn’t deserve your money.

also tell them you will be encouraging other parents to do the same.
