    Okay, I gotta know...

    ...what is up with "Gimp Lantern" on the cover of GL #0?

    Or maybe he's "Kick-Lantern?"



    I borrowed this image from Rob's Aquaman Shrine:

    I guess a power ring isn't enough for him. He needs to bust caps...

          Maybe its the rebooted John Stewart Lantern?? Idunno, looks like most of the reboot crappola.

            He's got some kind of tattoo on his arm. DC came up with a new tattooed man, but that was in the other universe. I guess he is a member of the "third army" the guardians have been talking about in the comics. The costume takes some cues from the Alex Ross armored Green Lantern in "Justice."

            I like the cover design, but I wish I liked more of the costumes.

            So next September do they print issue # -1?

                    He's wearing an arabic tattoo on his arm, leading to all kinds of speculation:

                        Um, what is the deal with Captain Marvel? Makes me so sad what they did to my Universe. They all look like crap.

                          I can't get over Superman's duds. They should just have him tie a terrycloth towel around his neck for a cape and make the look complete.

                            Now he's DC's answer to Wolverine. Original and groundbreaking, eh?

                              He's "el Lantern Magnifico!" and he fights for fame in the ring, and justice out of it. Plus, he drives.... a lot.
