laughed in your face!  Funny thing is, back in the late eighties I had no interest in Green Lantern whatsoever because there was a whole corp out there in space that had the same power as this guy named Hal on earth, it wasn't till after the rebirth of Superman/destruction of Coast City as well as the destruction of the Green Lanterns that got me into reading Green Lantern aka the one and only Kyle Rayner!!!!!  I enjoyed reading his adventures and the process of how the other Lanterns came back but somewhere along the line DC messed up.  Here we are near the end of 2022 and there is not a regular running series of Green Lantern which is freakin nuts!   So when I saw that Ron Marz was gonna do a signature signing in November, I thought well what better way to start slabbing my large collection of Green Lantern  by starting where I jumped in head first. :)  Will any of the 4 be a 9.8???? All four of them are getting old sooo who knows maybe 9.4 :)   Back in those days, I was lucky enough I guess to pick up 2 them as newstands yay me. :)

That's only because of Dark Crisis. You read the recent Morrison volumes right?

I enjoyed those Morrison seasons. :)   wonder what it will be like after Dark Crisis, I'm not getting any vibe that there would be a Green Lantern Series, I have no interest in reading that one-shot that John Stewart will be in.

I would not have been surprised. Most people I knew were into X-Men, New Mutants, ASM, Batman, Cerebus, Flaming Carrot, and maybe a few other titles. I didn't know anyone back in the 80s who was reading Green Lantern. I knew more people who read The Omega Men (which started in Green Lantern) than people who read Green Lantern.

I might be making a double post cause I don't see the post I made so I will make this a shorter response. :) As a kid walking through comic shop, I would just bee-line to the superman boxes, I did not even look at Green Lantern comic.
