Gamot ? He's more like a crocodile from Thanagar.

I meant Isamot when I said Gamot. Most of the GLC characters are forgetable to me..its Kyle, Sornak, Guy, Sodam, Arista, Salaak and Kilowog.

Very minor spoilers, but. . .http://scans-daily.dreamwidth.org/1973177.html?#cutid1

I assume this means Sodam will rejoin the main cast now.

Anyone else check out Green Lantern: Emerald Warriors? Very cool start, and I look forward to where it'll go. I'd say Sodam Yat fans should check it out too.

I hope someone with some class gets attached to do an in continuity SHAZAM series. Poor Marvel Family gets no love nowadays.

I thought the future was fluid in the DCU? I don't know, it seems like they change the rules every day. But one way or another, he has a thousand years to get Ion back.

They change it with every reset.

COIE, Zero Hour, IC, FC.

The current IC/FC universe has ION from GLC and ION from the future being the same person.

GLC > GL

SCW - get the TPBs. Youll be hard pressed to find back issues < $10 each. Also anything between SCW and BN is running about $15 an issue here...

I blame Marvel for not letting them call his series Captain Marvel. ):<

But that love may be renewed if the Shazam film happens. What I would love to see Power of Shazam be collected in graphic novel form instead of the first couple issues. ):< So far, the only on-going I know that shares the Shazam name is that one with DC's Kid section.

We might see something happen after or during Brightest Day considering that Osiris is in Titans right now, trying to bring back Isis and Black Adam.

Gail Simone has mentioned more than once that she wants to write the Marvel Family, and I think she could do the characters justice (but I don't know if she could handle a Shazam series alongside Birds of Prey and Secret Six though, and she sounds very committed to both books).

I have a question.

How and when did Mongel declare himself leader of the Sinestro Corp and is it published in a graphic novel?

After reading all the Green Lantern stories; I'm really digging Sinestro.
I was mentioned in the SciFi Japan article about the appearence of extras on the Godzilla vs. Megalon DVD.

I believe it happens in the pages of Green Lantern Corps, not sure which volume of the graphic novels though.

He started killing members of Sinestro's corp I believe in issues 17-21 and took it over right after Sinestro CW was over. Sinestro took it back during the first arc of BN.

Thanks for the info.

I found the graphic novel: Green Lantern Corp. Ring Quest. I was wondering about that since he's a focal point in Sins of the Star Sapphire and Emeral Eclipse.
