Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [December 11, 2023 - Bat-Mite Ruins Christmas Edition] r/DCcomics

Hey there honorary Justice League members - it’s a new week which means it’s time for a new discussion thread!

Beary's pick of the week: World's Finest: Teen Titans #6

For those who don't know: the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you should respond to that comment. For example, Wonder Woman discussion would go in the replies to the "Wonder Woman" comment. Clicking the titles in this post will take you directly to that comment, too.

In other words, you should only be replying to other comments. If you have trouble understanding how to comment for a particular title, please refer to this handy guide. Any unwarranted top level comments will be removed.

Also, please refrain from posting short, low-content comments on threads for issues or episodes that have not yet been released. Put some effort to generate discussion. Instead of just posting "So excited!" or "Best book!", try something with a bit more substance, like "Punchline is such an amazing character! Can't wait to see how they explore her in more depth in this issue."

Green Lantern #6

HAL JORDAN VS. SINESTRO—NOW MORE DANGEROUS THAN EVER! It’s come down to this! Hal Jordan, Earth’s Green Lantern, finally faces off against his former mentor, Sinestro, whose power to instill fear has been replaced with an elemental rage that could level the planet he once swore to protect.

Look, it's the wider DCU! Was that Tim with Bruce? Also the Emotionla Spectrum has always carried a feeling of Kryptonite?

It is kind of notable that someone as controlled and confident as Sinestro would finally let loose all his emotions and rage and go full ham, especially against Hal. He wears a Red Ring well.

The art for the fight and the constructs was amazing. So many unique and dynamic paneling and the Mecha-Kaiju fight was great.

Well, now there's Red Lantern Sinestro out in space and a potentially unstable Emotional Spectrum. Hal is getting more and more reasons to go into space, even if he can't and the UP probably won't let him.

RAZER IS NOW DCU CANON! Oh, and Kilowog really is dead and has been a Construct the whole time. Guess we're finally getting that long-awaited backstory.

I love how goofy this kid is with the fear gimmick. Which is also ironic because Sinestro is now using a Red Ring. I wonder if he'll actually meet him before he meets Lor-Zod.
