[@thelittlesonic7250]

There is so much story potential in a Sadness/Sorrow Lantern Corps, I hope they do as they did with the Red Lanterns and expand it over time with new members. Imagine a grieving mother tragically sobbing over the deaths of her children, a crippled athlete lamenting his bygone career, an abandoned dog, hungry and alone, now imagine what a sadness lantern power ring could do in the hands of those that have completely given in to despair. Do they lash out at the world? Do they try to rebuild themselves? How does the ring respond to an emotion that is inherently counter-intuitive to the concept of willpower itself? There is limitless narrative opportunity here!

[@сільськаприбахана]

Also with Sorrow Lantern Corps, IMO, it will add interesting group as sorrow as far as I know can lead to both heroic and villan paths (I'll admit that I haven't read deeply into lore yet, but if I'm not wrong, singular Lantern Corps are more or less on same side/goals with some exceptions, no?)

Hal and Carol did Nathan so dirty! I don't want to see him go down a villainous path, but I did have an idea regarding this possibility.

i'll slightly defend the white and black lanterns as "not emotions". white lanterns are the guardians of life, able to freely feel all emotions, instead of needing to pidgeonhole themselves into one to use their powers. black lanterns are death, the complete absence of life and therefore emotion. they feed off the emotions of others to sustain themselves. as for gray lanterns...wow, a character powered by depression and suicidal thoughts? finally, someone i can relate to!

[@TrillBill]

He took the Red Pill? 👀

[@daric_]

Your commentary is hilarious. It will be interesting if Sadness can drain the other emotions...or maybe it can be like how Blue Lanterns (Hope) superpowers Green Lanterns (Will), maybe Sadness can supercharge Red Lanterns (Rage) , Orange Lanterns (Greed/Avarice), or the Sinestro Corps/Yellow Lanterns (Fear) as sadness frequently nosedives into other negative emotions. I also wonder why Nathan didn't just become a Star Sapphire...because they are depicted as having their hearts broken (losing a love, being rejected, etc.). The Star Sapphires, though they represent love, can also represent maybe some of the strong emotions and reactions when love is not reciprocated. This is shown when a man becomes the host to the cosmic Emotional Entity of love, the Predator, during "Brightest Day" where the Predator entered a man who loved a woman who didn't even know who he was, leading him to loneliness, longing, and sorrow...

[@lightborn9071]

[@paultapner2769]

I really like this, as when reading the issue it came as a complete and utter surprise. And being completely and utterly surprised by something I'm reading or watching is a great feeling. One dangling plotline though re Carol: Remember the end of Green Lantern New Guardians? She and Kyle were a couple by then. Which frankly I wasn't keen on because she felt a little bit too old for him, but that has gone the way of Jess's fear lantern arc. Perhaps when this current storyline is at it's end Hal and Carol can be in the middle of their wedding when Kyle suddenly snaps back to normality and remembers it all. Then gets to the church just in time for an 'I object!'. Which would be awkward. But fun.

[@ThePuppet]

I love the emotional spectrum and it's driven me insane how well received it was at large only to then seemingly try to do everything to get away from it, only to really go full circle (I'm looking at you Ultra violet lanterns) The fact there's only one single blue lantern just chilling in DC largely unused and touched on for example is mind boggling!

I really enjoy the emotional spectrum and how the powers interact with eachother in relation to realworld emotions, color theory, and the visible light spectrum. It presents something for everyone to resonate with. While i do feel sadness/sorrow was an emotion that was missing for the longest time, i think further expanding it isnt the best idea. Especially after the whole "ultra violet Corp" thing. But the color being grey can maybe make it work in the mythos, if handled well.

I don't buy comics much anymore, but the Green Lantern comics have always had a one-step-up-from-Sesame-Street quality to it. They've celebrated the male-female dichotomy and ethnic stereotypes in cringe-worthy ways, and once presented the wisdom of the universe as knowing how to count from one to ten. Dividing the universe into 360 wedges was madness inspired by remembering one fact from geometry class. The emotional color spectrum, basically knowing your colors, fits right in. It's hokey and childish but it works because the basic appeal of Green Lantern is to take the most basic concepts and present them as cosmically as possible.

[@ScarletSilverIron]

I'd argue that emotional spectrum is just as much of reactions than basic emotions. Will power isn't much of an emotion to begin with as it is an reaction to something which how Fear can affect so badly as it is a reaction to something. An emotional reaction is just as important as emotions themselves. As Rage and Fear are just as much reactions as they are emotions.

Also I really like the fact you talk about the "not emotions " thing. Like I just fall in DEATH with this time of year. Kinda don't work but still have a ring for it smh

I think it can work but I think much like with orange I think it would be cool if he is the only one and that it passes on to the nearest individual with the most sadness .

Your voice acting is epic :)

I feel like the only issue I have with it is... Really? THAT'S what it took to be sad enough to MANIFEST COSMIC POWERS!? Like yeah, getting ditched at the altar for your partner's ex is sad but it's also common enough that there should reasonably be a whole core of Sad Lanterns by now, even if the core-battery-whatevers are on the fritz right now you expect me to believe there isn't a single living thing on earth that's been this sad or sadder since this has started? No nameless child in a third world country who lost their family to disease/hunger/conflic? No teenager/young adult thrown out by their parents and made homeless because they couldn't hold down a job? No ptsd riddled war vetran with mobility issues and a failing body who's watched all their friends and loved ones die around them and the world change into something he doesn't recognize? No runt animal in a factory farm that was rejected by it's mother and is in the process of being turned into simulate-meat nuggets? Dex showed us animals can become lanterns, hell there's a green lantern who's literally small pox! So you're saying at this moment there is no human, animal, bacterea or ANYTHING that is more sad then this guy?

Will isn't an emotion, but that's not a problem. The middle of the spectrum is balance, and an absence of any overriding emotion. That's why the middle is dominated by will: because it's not skewed or dominated by anything else. It's like how, if you shine a red flashlight at something, it looks red. If you shine white light at that same thing, you see its own colors; its own properties are what dominate.

Yes! Emo Lantern lives forever in our sad, broken hearts! 😭😭😭💔💔💔 (I want to call him "The Baxter Lantern" but I feel nobody will get that reference)

There's some alien who is the lone survivor of a plague and watched everyone he loved die agonizingly. Then he was rescued by a passing spaceship, was adopted by a second race, gained a second family, and discovered he was a plague carrier and watched his second planet die slowly. Now he sits on a burnt out husk, scavenging for food and looking at pictures of his dead children. Meanwhile on earth: I got dumped
