GA GL
This is one of those guys who you can two two or three different versions of. If you go back far enough, he's got a bigger belt and puffy clothes ala Firestorm....different cape too. And on the other end of the spectrum there was a point a few years ago where they were drawing him even more "modern/extreme' than the version you just did. I am a fan of all three styles, it's just a great mix of colors. I like all the GLs and their costumes, but Alan Scott has always made the rest of them look a little plain to me.Comment

Some good cheap ways to get caught up on the old JSA/Earth-2 thing is in back issues of "All-Star Squadron", "All-Star Comics" and their cross-overs with the JLA in the old "Justice League of America". Lotsa cool characters designs in there for customs.Think OUTSIDE the Box! For the BEST in Repro & Custom Packaging!Comment

Big thanks for the Insight of the Books Anthony.
However Being "Cheap" is really not the issue with my Hobby, or interests that I am into. Thats the "Other Guy" .
It's more so the Cornyness of the storys provided from that time period. I am sure it was & is a fantastic Read, & was great for any Child too. But it's a little far fetched to me that a Guy running around with a "Cosmic Rod" was some fantastic Super Hero, and Not a Porn Star. The rest of his team must have been terrifed everytime they reported for battle.

By cheap I just meant cost effective for getting the most bang for your buck...
Speaking of the guy with the Cosmic Rod, Starman....his son's book by James Robinson (coincidentally entitled "Starman") is a great modern look at some of the JSA characters and nuances. And it shows that the original Starman, Ted Knight, although not a top guy like the GA GL or FLash could be a cool character in his own right.
Plus the JSA also brought us (later on in "All-Star Comics" 70s revival) the Earth-2 Huntress and Power Girl! Now don't tell me you don't like PG, BK!

Yes. PowerGirl is the Best SuperHerion Ever. For Obvious Reasons.
In efforts to be the "Arse" that I am,.. I used the word "Cheap" a different direction, than perhaps was needed.
& Don't try & sell me on Anyone in the comics that is running around with a "Cosmic Rod" ... That is what Porno is for.
FurtherMore,.. to me Golden Age Green Lantern is the a Fantastic character, And I am glad he was created.

Very nice indeed. I love your outfits, and I especially like the 3rd photo. You must have quite a portfolio by now. I would LOVE to see a group shot of your customs.Comment
