As I recall, the “Green Lantern” is a group of protectors of the universe from all planets, not unlike the Jedi Knights. There have been 3 or 4 different earth-men over the course of the series, owing to mortality, aging, etc. Perhaps the “Gay Lantern” is just this current version, and they can kill him off in a couple years after the Pink Brigade quiets down.
Then again, given the treatment that Ryan Reynolds gave as Hal Jordan in the role...
they have sacrificed the “golden era” green lantern that was a one off character. no corps.
his weakness was wood.
his predicessor was killed by arrow shafts.
This homosexual is quaranteened in an earth 2 dimension where there is no superman etc.
by extension they have killed off his wife and children.
it also means that if the gold age lantern exists in the primary continuity, then that one is still normal.
This homosexual recruiting effort will have a few pro-homo storylines, something about the “homosexual gene” myth and then poor sales and the threat of leaching into the brand as a whole sales will cause the character to have an ignoble and quick end.
They are hijacking an earlier incarnation of the character and revising the historical record as Stalinists always do.
It’s the original version, Alan Scott from the 40s, in an alternate universe. Not the great Hal Jordan.
But this just shows, they are not willing to risk losing the support of the fans of their major characters. Thay lack the courage of their convictions. They are morally preening hypocrites.
