Not a snowstorm, but there's snow in it, so... The Final Night.

Green Lantern vol 2

There was a story that explained Earth's gods (greek/roman pantheons, norse mythology, etc.) were born by the same energy wave that gave birth to modern superheroes centuries later, which would technically make them demigods. But since that's a) from the 90s and b) written by John Byrne, it was probably retconned.

Hopefully it will be more grounded and tie some loose ends about what happened with Guy, Kyle, and Carol. I dropped the last GL series, so I don't know what came of them.

Nothing of what you just said shows how the people's perception of Batman changes throughout the movie. I understand the meaning of the "Martha" scene, no need to lecture me about it. You say everybody starts seeing Superman as a savior after his sacrifice, sure, but that doesn't change the way the people of Gotham see Batman. There's no scene that shows Batman changing his ways, except for that one blink-and-you-miss-it shot at the end of ZSJL where the criminals are tied down in front of Bat-Tank instead of killed. And even after that, we get another glimpse of the Knightmare future where he again is willing to kill his enemies. That's not development, and it pales in comparison to Robert Pattinson's development in The Batman.

"Batman lost one big characteristic those days, that he's supposed to be Scary."

That's not actually true. Matt Reeves explored Batman's scary nature in his movie. In the opening sequences, you can see criminals are scared of the shadows because they think Batman is there watching them. The whole movie shows a gritty depiction of Batman without making him overly edgy, and by the end of it, he learns that his methods shouldn't rely only on scaring criminals. He must also inspire hope in the innocent residents of a rotten city, because that's what Batman's supposed to represent. And that's something Snyder didn't achieve. At all.

I'm sure some comic book writer thought about it as a plot device at some point only to have another writer contradict it or completely forget about it.

Hopefully we get more copypasta material next time

So you see a negative comment about a suit that has nothing to do with the actor or his performance and immediately assume I hate Henry Cavill.

I really don't understand your logic, mate.

Believe it or not, those are actual infamous comments somebody here said on these boards months ago

"Right after he gets his black suit he flies to the Sun to absorb it's heat and gets an immense power boost."

The problem with the black suit in ZSJL is that they never show him in need of a "power boost," or show any boost at all. Immediately after reviving, he's more than capable of holding off Aquaman, Wonder Woman, and Cyborg at the same time and matching Flash's super speed without breaking a sweat. Then during the fight with Steppenwolf, he doesn't look any stronger than usual. I mean, Wonder Woman and Aquaman managed to injure and kill Steppenwolf with their weapons, and they didn't need any "power boost." So the black suit was just pointless fanservice in that scene.

Not a fan of it. I dropped that series around issue 5 or 6 and haven't picked it up again. It just repeats plots that have been done before, only worse (the destruction of the battery, the Corps reduced to one Lantern carrying all the weight, the Guardians having a secret evil scheme, one Lantern becoming a godlike being with Green energy, etc). Also, I find it pretty pointless that they gave John this godlike power only to have him "killed" in Death of the Justice League.

Hal's ring ran out of power after he made a green construct replica of Coast City. When a Guardian showed up in a hologram, Hal stole the energy from that hologram and headed straight to Oa. On his way, he stole other Green Lanterns' rings. He ditched those rings in the end to have a fair fight with Sinestro.

Zero Hour is not where Hal died. That's when he adopted the name Parallax for the first time, but he was still alive after the crisis. Hal died later on in The Final Night, and later became the Spectre. And even later still, he was resurrected in GL: Rebirth.

Oh, that sounds so cool! Never heard of that exhibition before, but now I wish it comes to Latam someday.

It was nice seeing Doctor Psycho and Silver Swan... those were the names of the villains, right? 👀

The first armor, if it had the purple and silver color scheme and the helmet, would be perfect.

It's not as bad as most people say for me

I like that the ZSJL one looks more like a suit instead of body paint with every anatomical detail, like the 2011 one. But I don't like the white boots.

They can have a section for "Alternate Timelines/Possible Futures" on their pages. No need to create new articles for characters that appeared for just a few minutes.
