Geoff Johns' run on green lantern is one of the greatest runs in comics ever. Would love if you'd continue through the other 11 or so volumes in his run :)
4years later, and I'm the 68th like on this comment.
At 16:08 John Stewart to Batman - "Put some RESPECK on his name"
This is the best example of how to do a retcon I've seen so far. Taking what was left before and tying it all make complete sense, keeping everything that has happened before and just moving forward with it. Hope you keep going with the Geoff Johns Green Lantern run from here. Keep up the great work Rob
Geoff Johns is a fuckin fantastic writer. But let's be honest; this book reaches the stratosphere because Ethan Van Sciver draws better than any other comic artist.
The GL honestly is the best DC mythos but brightest day had such a weak ending
I want to get into green lantern . Would Geoff John’s run be ok to start getting into green lantern ?
one of the greatest runs ever
Dorian Stark Indeed, Geoff John's Lantern comics are some of the best in the business.
who's hype for blackest night brightest day cover by rob ..... make it happen
what I take away from this video: Alan Scott is like an Orange to a Banana. Made my Day Rob
Guys, all I said was that I'm doing Green Lantern Rebirth. There's still a lot of ANAD Marvel and DC Rebirth stuff to cover.
ComicsExplained keep doing it Rob
ComicsExplained I've been waiting for more gl! keep it up
ComicsExplained hay just I question where does this fit in the time line
punisher vs deathstroke, mephisto or surtur vs trigon, onslaught vs hal jordan parallax
ComicsExplained stop rambling!
I'm so glad that you're finally getting around to this. Geoff Johns and GLC were the entire reason I started reading comics. for 9 years I followed the mythos and loved every second of it. I hope you cover more the this legendary run.
Great book highly recommend it...Geoff Johns run on Green Lantern is possibly the best run by a writer ever only thing close is Hickman's run with Marvel (fantastic four, avengers and new avengers)
Michael Schnupp just imagine a film of this.
Love the Hickman Avengers
In Geoff Johns we trust lol
21:24 I've never wanted you to cover All Star Batman and Robin more
This is some good shit, take notes Marvel.
Alex Wayne "slow clap"👍🏾
Eric Nick lol
They are given a general idea and broad story line to follow however from the higher ups
Eric Nick Marvel who? never heard of them
Alex Wayne a lot of big name writers have written for both at one time or another but they don't do it simultaneously. They're contracted with one or the other, not both at the same time. So when dude write take notes marvel....he is simply saying-hey marvel, this is what you need from your writers, make it happen or find new writers. That's like thinking Geoff johns has no input on what's going on right now with the writing because he doesn't write anymore and just runs the company...trust me, he has his hand in everything.
I wish John Stewart was given some love from DC
John Stewart in Justice League show is the defining depiction of Green Lantern. It doesn't matter how many Animated movies DC makes it's still the best one despite DC using Hal Jordan 19 out of 20 times
Carlos Gallon probably
i hope when they make the justice league movie they us John Stewart
John Stewart is kinda stiff and boring for me =(
Hal and Guy is the badass and more interesting out of the lanterns lol
Why? He's such a boring-ass character, always has been. Boring. His military background makes him just really straightforward and no personality. They don't have to write a military character w/no personality, but they do. He's good for being one of the many lanterns in the Green Lantern Corps books, and for kids Justice League books, and that's it. DC needs to literally bury John Stewart, and give us a new black Green Lantern that they could breathe new life into, with a bit of flare and character. Stewart would not be missed, and all these non-GL fans that just know the black GL from the cartoon, wouldn't even miss a beat.
Aww you skipped over the best part. Hal Jordan punching Batman in the face knocking him on his ass lmao
Enmanuel Gandulla never happened
Isaac www.google.com/amp/s/comicnewbies.com/2015/10/09/hal-jordan-punches-batman/amp/
Enmanuel Gandulla That's some good fanart
Isaac nope, it happened
@@ISAAC607 Tell that to Geoff Johns
@16:47 I don't appreciate you throwin shade at Batman like that Rob.
Appreciate Hal throwing a punch at him? :P
marco39120 That was a very interesting perspective between Lanterns Will and Batman persona of fear, that's why I love this channel.
marco39120 yea. I agree lol
But he's right. Batmans biggest weapon isn't his intellect or gadgets, it's fear.
Random Default No, its that he's Batman, and even if someone is close to killing him his big blue friend steps in and stops that shit.
Guy Gardener would be cool if he remained a *Red Lantern*.
BlaykeoOo But a better red lantern
Awww come on how could you not show Hal knocking Bats on his ass? xD

Svart fra Sør That's some pretty convincing fan art, I see how you fell for it
+Isaac it's real , the real page :- comicnewbies.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/hal-jordan-punches-batman.jpg
Ahmed Maher It's a common myth, don't worry for falling for it
***** are you a troll ? i have read this comic .. and i'm sure that it happened ..
keep Johns green lantern tale going. I've read it all before but this is a great way to remember it all.
One of the best non event story arcs ever...the whole johns run on lantern is amazing, was never a big lantern fan until I dove into that, now it's my favorite stuff, and the new rebirth comics don't disappoint either. That said...would love to see you do something in deathstroke rebirth...might be the best writing out there right now
Pretty good summary. It's a bit of a shame that you didn't mention that the reason that Hal got possessed was because Sinestro accidentally discovered Parallax in the Central Battery, decided to use it to essentially destroy Hal as a man and as a character, and got Hal infected with Parallax when the Corps was first destroyed when Hal fought Sinestro in the Central Battery.
Then when Hal entered the Battery again during Emerald Twilight, his possession was essentially completed, complete with the costume.
god. i am happy you are FINALLY doing Geoff John's Green Lantern Run. its amazing and it won me over and made me a fan of Green Lantern comics.
Guy Gardner was never a "Yellow Lantern." He had Sinestro's original power ring, which worked very differently than the yellow power rings that debuted years later as part of the Sinestro Corps.
Great vid Rob! This is one of my all-time favorite storylines. I was glued to GL when this came out and man it was great. My friends at the comic book store thought it was the best line of GL comics ever, and I still think it is. One thing Rob missed in this was when Hal talks about how each of the major lanterns' constructs are different. John Stewart is an architect, so his constructs are always intricate, like he's building them from the inside out. Kyle's an artist, so his are more defined because he's always refining them in his head like an artist would. Hal's to the point, always attacking things directly, precise but controlled. Guy's ring bleeds his will there's so much of it. Kilowog's is the only ring that makes a sound, a big woomp. I hope people get to read it somewhere. Really was one of the best reboots ever, if not the best. DC has always been known for mostly better storylines and this story was no exception. I think Johns made his career with this run at DC. Can't help but wonder what DCCU would have been like had Green Lantern Reynolds been a better movie. It was inspired by this story arcs success.
I have to say I really enjoyed this video, I am an old school GL fan reading all of my dads/granddads comics growing up Kyle is one of my Favourite Green Lanterns (being a 80's/90s kid) Geoff Johns GL run was an amazing one! (I'm glad he has returned to comic runs) I hope he returns to GL because there are still issues left standing from the GL universe that hasn't been explained.
I feel Rob could drop the sickest EDM, House, Electronica playlist with how good his background music is.
Glad you are getting into Green Lantern and explaining it splooge Rob
I had read Green Lantern Rebirth twice now, but I haven't ever fully understood it's history until I watched this video. Thanks!
This is insane, I just looked up to see if you had ever done a Green Lantern Rebirth video (not the new one) since I'm about to start reading that. And you happened to upload it today!!
Amazing video Rob,keep them coming.In brightest day in blackest night
Do not let the enormity of the mythos lead you to fear. Keep it coming.
each morning I go to this channel and you never fail to deliver fantastic content. I'm sick I have been for about a year I've been struggling with work off and on but this channel takes me out of my life for a moment and I cannot thank you enough for that.
Favorite Green Lanterns:
1a. Hal Jordan. This character is amazing and I grew up on him. There's not much else to say but I just love this character.
1b. Alan Scott. I absolutely love this character. I never really knew much about him until recently, but he's so cool. He's the original Green Lantern and the star heart is awesome, I also find it cool that his power level actually is close to one of the emotional entities (Parallax, etc.) Rather than a single Green Lantern. I love the JSA and I loved the Green Lantern mythos and this character is amazing.
2. John Stewart. Never been too big a fan of this guy but this book made him grow on me. He's awesome and I love the way he sticks up for Hal. Great character.
3. Kyle Rayner. Never been a fan of him, hes not a bad character but I prefer everyone else.
4. Guy Gardner. Same situation as Kyle but to a farther extent.
Rob, you should do a video on Bullseye's origin or one of his big stories like when he stabs Elektra. No channels have done any Bullseye content yet and he is an extremely badass character with lots of cool abilities along with being sadistic to the point where he is kind of like Marvel's joker counterpart. Bullseye vs Punisher is a really good arc as well. You're the man!
I was confused when I first read green lantern rebirth but after seeing this video I understand it now. Thanks rob
Hi, Rob! How are you? I have to tell you that my boyfriend, and I, watch your channel ALL the time. My bf is a veteran comic book lover, but me...not so much! I have ALWAYS been fascinated with the comic book universe, but I just never understood who was who, or their back story. But, ever since my bf introduced me to your channel, I feel like I know so much! You break down everything so well! So, I just want to tell you: thank you for taking the time to explain everything comic books. It has really helped a rookie like me! Keep up the good work! We look forward to your upcoming videos! Have a great day!
Your love of John's really shows when you do these. 👍
rob, I must say, you are knocking the ball out of the park atvthe moment. keep it up, its beenn a great startvto the new year
Thanks, Rob. I loved the video!
One of my favorite stories.
Got a little shopping to do due to this.
Thanks Rob
This channel is awesome, keep up the good work.
Thanks for the video. This is one of my favorite stories hands down. Now to go read it again
This sounds like a great place to start reading Green Lantern comics.
GL Rebirth is the shit, good job Rob
Thanks for making this video, I've been so confused for quite some time trying to draw the connections from Paralax first overtaking Jordan to Jordan being resurrected.
great video. green lantern seems much more interesting to me after watching this video.
Andy Skied dude it's awesome surprised to see many saying this. The blackest night arc is arguably one of the best storylines .
What Geoff Johns did for GL cannot be understated. He revitalized so many heroes and low tier villains. If you can check out any part of his run, it's all good.
Love me some green lantern and they arc was amazing.
Thanks for this vid!!
Awesome story ! Well told. I like when they go over 30 min
Rob I love you man for doing this!!!! I read this a year ago. it's great coming back and listening to it from someone else's point of view!!!!!!
well done Rob! What a great story!
Absolutely great work on the video.
The music goes perfectly with this video!!
This arc was the one that convinced me to read comics at 17 years old. And I still love it
I love these videos and I have been waiting for this one
Rob, you're the man. I have notifications on and I see a lot of new Marvel stuff, and while I love me a lot of Marvel, I LOVE DC and specifically Aquaman, Flash, etc. would love to see more DC but also, you're the man
Great work, big fan of all things green lantern, and this just made my day. I appreciate this. Thank you for creating this video.
Please let this be a jump off point to Geoff Johns' entire GL run. Definitely not all at once, but eventually. That would be amazing!
Either way, keep making these amazing videos man.
Guy Gardner's return was awesome. Not that I have a history reading him from before. The way it happened was just cool.
Loved the video Rob (and really hope you eventually cover the rest of the epic) but I'm quite surprised that you skipped over the bit about the different Lanterns' fighting/construct styles during the fight against Parallax :O I really thought you'd enjoy explaining that bit
So for those who don't know: John, as an architect tends to build constructs like buildings, reinforced throughout, Kyle, as an artist constantly sketches and re-sketches his construct as he makes little adjustments, Guy's eagerness to give his will form causes his constructs and beams to spark, Killowog's ring is the only ring that makes a loud booming noise when used, and Hal uses precise energy beams :)
Great vid as always Rob!
Great explanation of a very complex story and history. You've done Geoff Jones and the GL Corps proud
I absolutely loved his green lantern run!
Thank you so much for this video!.... I tried reading this book about 4 years ago when I just started reading comics and was so confused as to what was going on. After seeing this video a couple weeks ago it made me want to give the Geoff Johns run another shot and I am so glad I did. The writing is fantastic and the art is even better.
One of my favorite comics ever, I've been waiting for this one
Rob, u need to turn into a GL fanbuoyyy now.
nothing better than a GL story.
thanks again. been waiting for tooooooooooo long for more GL
you eplanied and told the story so well . thank you man
This was a great vid man
Misconception, it's not Farris Air Force base. It's Farris Air Craft. It's not a part of the military, it was a private corporation that built jets for the Air Force. My favorite part of the story is when Kyle points out that Ollie is crying, which is why John Stewart doesn't wear a mask, he doesn't want to hide who he is from the world.
Can't wait to see your future videos about the SInestro Corp war and leading into Blackest Night. Good job, this story is what got me started into Comics and I love the GL mythos.
you did the story proud
Loving your DC videos!
I really like the artistry of keeping batman in the shadows until Stewart's counter and illumination.
Well done, enjoyed it!
Nicely done Rob, as always.
love what you do !
Great that you finally got round to this! GL Rebirth and Johns entire GL run from this point on is fantastic. One thing is too noticeable not to point out though, it's Ganthet not Ganthlet :P.
As always thank you.
if Geoff Johns can do one thing better than most (If not all) writers, it's inner monologues. it's one of my favourite parts of his flash run.
Green Lanterns-The OG Power Rangers.
Keep up the great work!
nicely told general Rob.
great stuff like always!!!
more and more and more Green Lantern PLEASE!
1- This story was THE story that even had me slightly interested in DC comics. Thank you for showcasing it. I hope you continue on w/ Sinestro Corp War and Blackest Night and so on. 2- Why no talk about the punch!?
well that was a little cloak and dagger good job rob
I love the Grey "Reed Richard" streaks were gone
I love your videos Rob!! Keep it up! I hope one day you do a video about Constantine. He is one of the characters i really want to learn more about and seems to have a pretty interesting story.
This is such an amazing story i can't wait for the next video!
Nobody tells a GL story like you Rob thanks
(Slop clap) Well done sir, well done. You've done it yet again.
My goodness this whole story is just massive!
Green Lantern's are always green around the ears
so happy to revisit this story. loved it the first time I read it. thanks Rob =)
That issue where Batman and Robin coat everything n yellow is hilarious and my fav...
Want some lemnaid? Lol
For years, growing up, I never paid GL much attention. This series changed that. Geoff Johns work on GL in this series made this, and his subsequent efforts with the GL stories, a "must read" for me.
please do do the gleason gl corps run that was one of the most epic lantern stories told. and one of the best buddy cop stories ever
I loved the video just wish u covered the part where Hal talked about how each lantern uses there power
Yo Rob I love your content. Could you cover Lobo? That'd be sweet.
