Although, the artist did choose the perfect facial expressions and body language for that scene so it could have been something that happened to them. Edit. No pun intended

There seemed to be a trend towards de-powering heroes at DC in the early '70s: The Guardians cut down Hal's ring power, Superman lost half his strength to the "Sand Superman", a villain fed Supergirl a pill that caused her powers to cut out randomly, and (most famously) Wonder Woman lost her powers entirely and became a plainclothes adventurer. I imagine it was a deliberate response to the success of Marvel and their "more relatable" heroes. Didn't last long, though.

For me, the most cursed Superman panel ever is the "iconic" moment from the "Superman/Batman" series in which Clark introduces Kara to Bruce. For those who don't know, the one-page panel consists of Clark proudly saying "She's my cousin," while Kara (imitating the iconic promotional photos of Lois Lane's actresses Margot Kidder, Teri Hatcher and Erica Durance) happily uses Superman's cape to cover her naked body. I think it's pretty obvious to say that, out of context, that panel feels CURSED AF

As for cursed panels, there was that time in the Jay Faerber run on the TItans where Jesse Quick tells Nightwing that when he told her that the Titans are like a family she didn't expect them to be incesteous. This is the same Jesse Quick that, under the same writer, would later sleep with her mother's fiance. Or maybe that time the Martian Manhunter disguised himself as a Japanese woman and went by the name Hino Rei, and Batman told him the name was too on the nose.

I actually love when the writers don't get the same impression as their readers do from what they write about. Like Wonder Woman's creator saw the whole bondage thing as completely normal and just injected it into his stories. These guys probably weren't thinking that on the internet a couple of decades later people would take this cover out of context. Also if they fist fought then that would seem more like "Superman vs Jor-El" rather than "Jor-El punishes superman".

I don't know if you've ever mentioned how the Green Lantern Corps is based on the classic sci-fi "Lensman" books, by E.E. Smith. His concept of a Galactic law enforcement patrol has also inspired the "Ultraman" ultra-warriors, the Jedi, and Klaatu and Gort from "the Day the Earth Stood Still."
@richmcgee434
@richmcgee434 10 ай бұрын
The Lantern Corps for sure, and Ultraman's reasonable even if their upper ranks have gradually become less incomprehensible and all-powerful over time (at least in parts of the franchise). The Jedi lack the key feature of having godlike entities empowering them while also carefully leaving their proteges to do almost all the work for themselves. Klaatu/Gort is much more about dopey Earthlings' mistaken beliefs about which one of them is actually in charge and fears about machines taking over from organics - something the Arisians would have been terribly disappointed about. "No transistorized com-pu-tors for you, children. Calculate your own orbits with your brain and a slide rule or you'll get lazy and Boskone will eat you alive." Nice to see someone who knows their classic scifi, I might add. :)

Hal and Clark as rivals is an interesting idea. I don't like it as much as Hal and Bruce not being able to get along, but if this rivalry is more of a "difficulty working together" turned "friendly competition" thing based more around their powers than personalities I can get behind it. Way back, I read a comic where it turned out Hal and Clark have regular meet ups to fight on uninhabited planets and it always ends in a tie. That, along with some TAS episodes, got me thinking that the JLA is more interesting when each member is potentially capable of taking out each other member under the right circumstances. i've been watching some Superfriends episodes and there is one where they're trapped in another dimension (or time / black hole. I can't remember) and Superman and Green Lantern are like "Hey. Let's combine into one being and use our multiplied powers to escape". They do it. it works. There are no consequences. They can do it again at any time they want with no draw backs. They just don't.

I wanna see this dynamic return in tandem with the modern Bruce/Hal/Barry dynamic. Imagine Clark and Bruce having good rapport and friendship, but Clark absolutely hating one of Bruce's other friends, and the friend that Clark and Bruce both get along with (Barry) also is pals with Hal, the guy that Clark hates. It's actually a really good dynamic combo, I think. "My best friend Bruce, our good friend Barry, and the guy I fucking hate: Bruce and Barry's close friend Hal".

Jerry Seinfeld once claimed to have invented the concept of Superman and Green Lantern not getting along. This comic's existence clearly disproves his claims. Seinfeld posted on Twitter that some movie (I think it was Lego Batman but it could've been something else) had gotten the idea for the two superheroes disagreeing from his series of 1990s credit card commercials where he interacted with an animated Superman. Seinfeld at this time had also recently started his internet show where he interviews people in cars, an idea which had already been done by Robert Llewellyn (Kryten from Red Dwarf).

I've been hoping you'd do a video on this one. It was worth the wait (so good)! I encountered the panel before the story, and yeah, it's hard to recontextualize it and not chortle a little. That said, it's pretty heavy for an early Bronze-Age story. It's amazing how many times Superman has saved the universe, and he still feels like he's dogging it. As for GL, the only thing Hal has to fear is Hal himself (Not quite accurate, but the saying amuses me). On the unhelpful editor's note: I was just reading Green Lantern #81 the other day and Hal says to Ollie, "And remember, the Guardians reduced my ring's power." Why? When? What issue?

According to fandom DC Database, Julius Schwartz and E. Nelson Bridwell are the editors associated with World's Finest 201. I believe that the reference you highlighted would be to the famous Green Lantern/Green Arrow run, issues 76-89, by Denny O'Neil, Neal Adams and various inkers. Sits on the border between Silver Age and Bronze Age comics in style as well, just as you described. Could be argued those issues marked the transition between the eras.

"Punish me daddy." That sounds something Wonder Woman's creator would write. He was into that stuff.😏

The whole "rivalry and jealousy" reminds me of how much of the world was at war--or in Cold War struggles--from the 1940s through the 1980s... and how it seems like it's getting worse again.

Hal having tension with Batman or Ollie is kinda fun, but I've never been into the idea of Hal and Supes having issues. I prefer comics where they're depicted as friends. (although Grand -daddy of Greatness" makes it all worthwhile!)

I always read "DC Comics Pesents" as a new teamup book for Superman with other heroes. It was really World's Finest? That blows my mind! It was always DC Comics Presents on the cover. How weird.

You said "Hal assumes that his fears have all been stamped out because he's now Green Lantern," but I think that's got it backwards. He was chosen by the ring because he had no fear... "born without fear" and all. Back in the 70's (I think) he became unemployable as a test pilot because this showed up in his psych evals, making him a bad insurance risk.

.....sigh... I actually have this issue, and have re read it many times, and never associated any "kinky" stuff with it at all; not even in my teens when you discover what innuendo is. Despite what modern folk derive from older print and written things, given context perhaps sometimes a cigar is just an extra large cigarette,....PEACE dear Sister, and God bless.

I got that issue from my mother around 1977. It was the first back issue bought from a comic book store that I had ever seen, bought either at Trade-a-Tape or The Time Machine in Lincoln, Nebraska.
