[@berserkchip]

Sinestro's last line to Hal is so epic and sad. Always brings a tear to my eye.

[@PrimeTime__]

Geoff Johns is very proud of that part too lol

[@berserkchip]

Is Geoff Johns a big DBZ fan? Cuz Sinestro was STRAIGHT UP Vegeta through this entire arc.

[@gundamheavyarms4879]

I love that line. It is one of my favorite moments in all of comics.

[@ronanlina7909]

What was it?

[@jiaweiye9489]

U just spoil it Is despise u now

[@justagundam]

When Senestro told Hall that they'll always be friends, I actually shed a tear.

[@GetCraftyCrafty]

WHAT DID I JUST WATCH?! This was EPIC. Still feeling kinda lost. This makes me want to get back into comics.

[@nikoladimitrov8222]

same dude

[@infected_club8996]

Get Crafty Crafty start from the black lanter story and you will be on track

[@jitackles]

This an Epic

[@hollowhokage1381]

Yeah start with blackest night such a cool ride

[@seanropp6493]

This by far is one of my most favorite storys of one of my favorite DC heroes. and it has one of the most perfect endings one could ask for in a comic as epic as this.

[@femoman]

***** Oh, Green Lantern stories are always pretty epic. Tt's rather telling that the DC crossover event that is widely considered to be the best is Blackest Night, a Green Lantern story!

[@ThomRobin]

It feels like I have just watched the greatest blockbuster movie ever and it has come to a close. Geoff Johns run was truly epic and fully showed how much the Lanterns are badasses.

[@comicstorian]

Oh and obviously we released this early, it was supposed to come out Friday. Worked on it all weekend to get it out early for you.

[@NizarSenussi]

I love it!

[@flipykid3079]

Thank you!, Love the Video!

[@williammccarty5256]

Love your channel Comicstorian!!!!!

[@rickyrackx8928]

Hey Comicstorian, are you gonna continue with the storyline of Green Lantern New Guardians Issues #21-40?! dc.wikia.com/wiki/Green_Lantern:_New_Guardians_Vol_1 P.S. Are you also gonna do the Origin of Green Lantern Simon Bazz?!

[@peterhughes1873]

Thanks

[@LethalPlayers]

This story made me really like Senestro.

[@saico7226]

Sine step is basically the godfather. So cool and so badass and so evil but so nice

[@saico7226]

+sai co sinestro lol

[@mikeantony252]

We all love Sinestro

[@rdcarbonk1885]

Sinestro taking that heart like his rightful price was too badass.

[@bloodstoneore4630]

Dirtball Daquan attrocitus for me

[@Davorox1]

This story. It took the crucial parts involving Sinestro to get me to almost cry. I almost broke into tears when Sinestro was treated badly by his planet, when his planet was destroyed, and when he responded to Hal Jordan,"The Tragedy is, We'll always be friends." That part hit me hard. I felt the water works running as he said that. Out of all of the Lanterns. I have the most in common and empathize the most with Sinestro.

[@otro_dany_mas]

I personally like more the story of Atrocitus, how they develop the character

[@Davorox1]

***** I'll look into it :D

[@lukeroughan4658]

Davon Dabney Yea and at the end when Sinestro brings Ganthet to Sayd, Ganthet asks him why he let him live and Sinestro replies with "because I know what it's like to lose it all."

[@pyrotech8285]

Is it just me or is the Green Lantern mythos some of the best written stuff in DC lore?

[@gagecrawley6223]

Indeed it is, I highly agree with that.

[@chrisreager2614]

For me, it truly is the best.

[@treywelch7389]

True

[@taraishot100]

Yes because of Geoff Johns legendary run imo

[@ThisPhenomenonV2]

Think it’s just you 😂

[@jamesjohnson417]

Damn DC....this was EPIC. I always used to think Marvel held the title of epic stories but after Injustice and this i'm starting to think otherwise.

[@rubenmorales9725]

+James Johnson I agree, this whole story was fucking great, just finished it all in one sitting

[@kimaarasgamebox8409]

+James Johnson I love DC more than Marvel. Marvel just happens to have the first move in the movies. :)

[@khazix4833]

+James Johnson Now.. wait for the movies

[@NicaremE]

+James Johnson Oh both DC and Marvel have some mind blowing stories, yes marvel has stories just as epic as this one, you just need to know where to look

[@dramahoude5]

Did you read earth 2 comics the war against darkside?? it's so fucken epic

[@comicstorian]

And it ends! I hope guys enjoyed this crazy ride. The Green Lantern stories do continue and we will eventually get to Godhead and the Ending for Kyle. But we are going to take a little break from GL for a bit. Robin Rises it tomorrow!

[@Esappx3]

Love you for not making us w8 till Friday

[@FinoClips]

You did an AMAZING job truly, you have all my respects as a comic book fan

[@jacobscofield6795]

Does Hal become a white lantern

[@TheSpencermacdougall]

do something about the bone graphic novles

[@trigjegman6009]

DO RED HOOD AND THE OUTLAWS!!!!!

[@Levi_Skardsen]

I hope those two Guardians at the end aren't just stuck living with Larfleeze.

[@Error0101]

They are xD

[@jeffreydavidson5161]

I hope they actually help larfleeze find his family

[@pranav4285]

Finally, Hal has gotten the recognition he deserves as the greatest green lantern for the first time in the new 52!

[@unorthodox_dating6387]

What are you talking about? Hal has always been recognised as the greatest GL.

[@Dank_Knight99]

Why isn't this a movie DC?

[@comicstorian]

+RatchetC99 Game I would kill for a proper GL Movie series

[@CH-zc8qx]

+RatchetC99 Game Ikr....first they gave us that pile of garbage movie in 2011, then now they dare proceeding with the Justice League WITHOUT THE FREAKING GL? They have such phenomenal source materials and they don't even know what to do with them....sigh.....

[@sharilshahed6106]

+RatchetC99 Game for consolation we do have a great animated series

[@emofound]

+Margaret H Well said!!!

[@bloodstoneore4630]

Chuong H and tease us with that flashback

[@swolbrohamlincoln9659]

now that Geoff is leading the way for WB. and that the next Green lantern movie will be called Green Lantern Corps. that opens so many stories and characters.

[@isaiahgooden9125]

Right!!! Hopefully they can start getting these movies right. I've enjoyed the movies even with all of their problems and issues.

[@lekhaclam87]

Swol BrohamLincoln I heard he got kicked out of WB.

[@alexanderibarra6386]

Geoff John's and green lantern are the entire reason I got into comics in the first place. Thanks for going over his Benny and bringing back a lot of good memories.

[@Enzo_Matrix92]

I swear GL is one of the few DC comics that can make me tear up.

[@Nightman221k]

I'm seriously wondering this: can anything top the Geoff Johns run on GL? I can hardly think of a time that I've seen this kind of passion in comic book writing in a DC book about a major character in ages. Like he took classic mythos and characters and added and built on and strengthened the lore. I never was as knowledgeable about GL until I found his arcs but I find them epic.

[@rodney2x48]

Nightman221k DnA's run on Nova and other Marvel characters is the closest I can think off in terms of cosmic space galore, but I still think Geoff Johns' run on GL is outright amazing.

[@liltwinston]

The lantern stories are so epic better than any one comic ever. All their arcs are amazing so many characters to but batman is still my favorite lol

[@TheGreatDevlin]

I stayed up all night reading this arc when I first got into comic books and I still get goosebumps over Sinestro's character development, his relationship with Hal, the trails the First Lantern puts everyone through, and just that epilogue. Thank you SO MUCH.

[@59hawks]

Did Sinestro just say GG?

[@TheGeehanlolShow]

+killerinstinct59 I'd say that too if someone defeated me

[@dapukisgoingon]

+killerinstinct59 i dont think it stands for good game though, more like GOOD GOD

[@preposteroustoast]

@@dapukisgoingon that actually sounds better.

[@groudon779]

@@dapukisgoingon yeah, I was about to say the same thing

[@TheOriginalJrod]

That final line between Hal and Sinestro.... That gave me shivers, goosebumps, chills.... um... "The Feels" I think is what the kids call it.

[@sontypohnenamen5161]

But... wasn't it Sinestro who killed the old Guradians? That's how i remember it, and also, the evil face in the picture has YELLOW, not red light. Sinestro killed them all, except for Ganthet (like you said in the video, all emotional etc.) who he let escape with his love Sayd, and after that Arkillo told Atrocitus that Sinestro left one of them alive for him to kill, not the other way around...

[@comicstorian]

You right, I had it backwards because of the placement of the Panels and theres already an annotation on it. I apologize!

[@sontypohnenamen5161]

Comicstorian You think i was merely a guy correcting you... but i am the first guy correcting you. I am a god. Just kidding, i'm a big fan of your work, especially of the whole GL saga.

[@Gking0906]

Actually another guy corrected him 13 hours before You did so that guy is a god :P

[@sontypohnenamen5161]

GKING0906 To quote Nekron: "You are nothing... ...just a ghost!"

[@Ladazotz]

SonTyp OhneNamen soooooooooooo cool #respectNekron

[@rapidrewards2427]

Dude this was the most amazing story series I've ever seen. 10 out of 10. I'm serious when I say you could be a professional narrator. Now, in regards to your next series, Zero year seems like a logical choice, since it ran for a very long time, and would take 2 or 3 episodes to complete. Think about it, and again, your stories rock

[@texcorps9432]

Gl stories would make the best movies

[@Blackwing2040]

I agree with you man. Although Blackest Night is based around all the dead dc heroes and villains so that would be hard to make

[@texcorps9432]

***** true

[@Blackwing2040]

***** Whst do u mean

[@Blackwing2040]

***** okay that's understandable

[@BillMayonaise]

The stories are way too long, complex and convoluted for film. Great for comics though

[@Talic518]

This was an amazing story arch, thanks for doing this whole run for us

[@sydguitar99]

I hope Warner bros makes a great lantern movie some day 😢😢😢

[@symbiotegod2069]

+Syed Hoque Never going to happen....Well with Hal anyway they killed any momentium he could have had.

[@KalvinEllis]

+Symbiote God Hal is the central character of the Green Lantern mythos. They are not doing anything without him. That might actually explain Green Lantern's absence in the Justice League movie. If they thought Hal was interchangeable they would've just put Stewart or someone else in the Justice League. They didn't, so whatever they plan on doing with GL in the future, it's not proceeding without Hal.

[@DangerouslyActive]

yep.theyll screw it up.

[@callitwhatyoumay]

Great job!!! This was amazing. To see Sinestro tell Hal, "always" was heartwarming Thank you everyone at The Comicstorian

[@isaacgazmararian4288]

You are the best comic book youtuber. I love these longer series of stories so please keep it up! XD

[@wendellstephens6311]

Dude Sinestro killed all the guardians, except Ganthet and one other, and let atrocitus kill the last one.

[@comicstorian]

You are right and I added in an annotation. The placement of the panels for those last pages threw me off. Sorry about that!

[@wendellstephens6311]

Ok

[@LABEAST23]

Comicstorian it's cool brah, u risked your weekend for us. YOUR WEEKEND, so thank you for this amazing video.

[@malecki2616]

What guardian was killed by atrocitus?

[@sontypohnenamen5161]

Christian Malecki There's no name given, you can only see Arkillo telling Atrocitus that Sinestro left one of them alive for him to kill.

[@dragoncross42]

This was an awesome story to see from beginning to end thanks for all the story's on Green Lantern

[@Revenant77x]

Amazing job with this story arc. Great videos and as always epic reading. Thank you so much for all your hard work in producing these.

[@sortskjebnen]

This was one of my favorite GL stories. Hal's and Sinestro's last lines to each other was amazing. It was something that probably no one expected, but the emotion portrayed in it was intense. The other part that made me enjoy Sinestro even more, was when they hinted that he was the Bookkeeper of Oa. Deep down, it seems like he'll always be a GL in one way or another.

[@CryptidFlame]

Green Lantern was the one character i fell in love instantly when i first saw it. Never have i been treated to such an incredibly awesome amount of epic green lantern stories. This was amazing. Thank you Geoff Johns for the story and thank you Comicstorian for your entire channel.

[@jacobgreen6317]

Thank you comicstorian you guys are awesome! I've been watching you guys for a couple months now, and I always look forward to your videos. Thank you for all the work and time you guys put into this!

I just got back into comics after about 20 years, and your site has really got me caught up on DC and marvel...,.watching your videos got me all kinds of geeked to get back into reading the comics.....

[@evanbrown3623]

This is my absolute favorite Green Lantern story. Just EPIC!

[@mikeshogunlee]

This was an amazing journey I am going to start collecting the entire story, after I get the Spider-verse of course. Congrats you did a grate job with this :)

[@AzlanWake]

That's it,Comicstorian you are literally the best comic explain channel now!!!!!...Just the way you tell stories is full with excitement and intensity makes me always enjoy your videos man,Great work and please keep on doing it!!!!

[@MrRaditz182]

Thank you so much for this, it has been so kool to see all of these stories come together in such a great way. This has reminded me of how much I love and enjoy comics again!

[@BrandonQuek2002Gmail]

I want you to know that Sinestro killed all of the Guardians of the Universe (except for Ganthet, who chose to be in exile, along with Sayd, as they had emotions), while Arkillo told Atrocitus that Sinestro had left one of them alive for him to kill, Comicstorian.

[@LordUzaki]

Wait I'm confused, if Hal apparently killed himself in order for him to become a black lantern, then how did he manage to come back to life and become a green lantern?

[@Drforrester31]

There was a lot of life energy floating around. I'm sure Hal just absorbed some

[@ShiningWolf88]

Deus Ex Machina

[@seven9]

Shining Wolf ikr

[@Jeremy97437]

Never underestimate a Green Lantern's will!Especially if he's called Hal Jordan! Also,it's not the first time a Black Lantern hero resurrect thanks to a Power Ring! (Wonder Woman,"killed" in Blackest Night,and resurrected with a Star Sapphire ring)

[@KalvinEllis]

It was because he was reunited with his younger self. Hal as a child represented the early innocence of an individual who would subsequently experience every aspect of the emotional spectrum but it never changed his core. Volthoom needed that as the final ingredient to achieve ultimate power. So when Hal destroyed Volthoom, he was reunited with his younger self, which gave him back his life and a random GL ring turned him into Green Lantern again.

[@abstractguy]

That was fantastic, honestly i really feel like buying this arc now. I mean ive watched various other complete stories from other channels as well but now laid that its laid out like this since blackest night really makes me wanna check all the comics out. Good run of GL complete series.

[@marcelinoperez8613]

Please keep up the good work. Your awesome man no sarcasm whatsoever, I really do enjoy watching your channel and I'll do whatever I can to keep up the support.

[@omarali-badia8747]

The videos were so well done congrats on finally finishing it. I love your channel

[@boredcommenter67]

Okay not the biggest green lantern fan (red lantern is more my style). But that was a pretty epic arc. Would love to seem ore story arcs like this.

[@MrWhitman]

Well, what disappoints me about the series is that Kyle didn't have much of a role in this. You'd think that a White Lantern would have more of a role in the story.

[@comicstorian]

That is everyones complaint over the white lantern lol

[@lamingturay]

I agree. It seems like his arch was very anti-climactic. I kinda wish he, Hal and a few other major players were responsible for the fall of Valthoom rather than it just being Hal (so to speak)

[@BlazingNinjaAdam]

Lamin Turay well they are special in different ways and although it was a all lantern arc hal is the lantern connecting every latern and he died but kyle hasn't but how he came back from the dead by having no fear after dying is ? ......

[@lamingturay]

Ya his resurrection via green power ring was a bit of a loose end lol

[@mystirboy]

You should read the Relic and Godhead story line. He plays a much more important role but still he doesn't appear that much compared to Hal Jordan.

[@rubenlemus8480]

You guys are the best. Your stories made me look forward to Fridays and now the conclusion of Green lantern story has made my spring break. Keep doing what you do best, I'm going to watch all the lantern stories again about 50 times : )

[@DCReviews4]

I have been following this since the beginning and Green Lantern have always been the thing that got me into comics and things like that and I just want to thank you for this because this is just a very cool story that I never had the chance to read and I hope you do more of these.

[@DORRITYLAWOFFICEJerseyCity]

BTW...Big Fan of the channel. But wait I'm bugging out!! Does the Guardian's decision to ignore or expel their emotions way back when create the "Paling"? Are they even connected to each other in the mythos at this point?

[@comicstorian]

+DORRITY LAW OFFICE They never explain how they are connected, the Paling is a newer thing that came out after all of this

[@DORRITYLAWOFFICEJerseyCity]

True that story is a newer arc, just curious. Hey what is your thoughts on Volthoom? Is that the same entity that dwells within Power Ring"s ring?? Thanks for getting back to me.

[@marquiskrystal]

I've been begging and bleeding to see this story. Thanks for uploading it so that i can buy it this weekend.

[@mchristianowers01]

i just want you guys that yall are awesome and i enjoy every video that has been posted! Thank you for being so awesome

Flashpoint was literally our first video!

[@haydenmorgan1013]

2 things what happened to super girl after the red daughter of kripton, thank I spelled that wrong, but I don't think you ever went any ware with that. two you ever gonna do mangastorian because you did seven deadly sins and gust cut it off so I really hope something with that.

[@haydenmorgan1013]

sorry do something with that.

[@comicstorian]
