I don't think enough people appreciate that Guy since 2005 has had pretty much an uninterputed run of great stories. From David Gibbons/Peter Tomasi's GLC, to Soule's Red Lanterns, to Venditti's Hal and Pals. Not many characters have that level of a good track record.
@soarinpenguinlive6372 Жыл бұрын
That cause Guy has an actual personality to write around. Sal having such a strong amount of hate for Guy as a character proves he one of dc better characters. There are so many dc superheroes everyone has no opinion on which is the worst thing for a character.

Great some ol Guy Gardner action! I was a big GG fan especially under Giffen and J. M. DeMatteis Justice League run. What folks forget is that both of Guy's 90's personas were the result of head trauma in the past. His haircut was inspired by General Glory's golden age sidekick....and he technically did not recruit G'nort...but G'nort was his deputy for the sector. G'nort debuted in MILLENNIUM. So arrogant, blow hard Guy and peace loving Guy are extremes of his actual personality which was originally somewhat in the middle and much more noble and heroic.. Guy's progress after JLI era ended is more about having his story being caught up and needing to be altered due to radically shifting editorial mandates. He stops being a GL as they get ready to phase out the Corps. He gets the silly "Warrior" deal and alien DNA once editorial decides that they want no one else to have a ring. The authors wanted to make Guy into a nonpowered Indiana Jones/Doc Savage adventurer...but editorial nixed that due to the success of Power Rangers and pushed for the Warrior deal. Guy's history is just writers making lemons out of lemonade. I hope one day you guys check out John Stewart's Green Lantern MOSAIC series which was running right around the same time as this. It's IMO the most underrated mainstream comic of the 90's.

Also kind of have a soft spot for Guy Gardner. The first story I read with him was in a Superman Annual where Guy was helping others to fight an Eclipso-possessed Superman. Guy gets blinded but refuses to quit. And his personality is somewhat like Hawkeye's as they aren't too polite or afraid to say what needs to be said or what most are thinking.
