Shy's making fun of his funky little beard

A little kiss on the cheek

These two are going to be together again in a movie!! DC please don't disappoint me and give me again my favorite ship of all time.

Somebody just made me realise Green Lantern is literally a magical girl.

First his power comes from a ring, a classic magical girl thing to have an accessory that transforms you.

He has a main colour theme as any other magical girl has.

He has a costume that subtly GLOWS

AND HE HAS AN OATH!!! What’s more magical girl than an oath/catchphrase!?

Y’all wanna know my favorite fucking moment from Young Justice?

***

Still, we could always use more raw power. And earth has a third Green Lantern. Guy Gardner.

No.

But we could really—

NO.

(Young Justice S1E22)

In brightest day, in darkest night

No evil shall escape my sight!

Let those who worship evil’s might

Beware my power — Green Lantern’s light!

I realized that I had never drawn another Green Lantern besides Hal and Kyle, so I decided to draw the 4 main Lanterns! (I wanted to do Jessica, Simon and Alan too, but I had no inspiration to place them with the others)

I tried to draw them with a construction that makes sense with them (military style rockets for Hal, "complex" drills for John, mecha hands for Kyle and a baseball bat for Guy)

A real conversation I had with my sister about Green Lantern…

Me: (talking to my sister) You said the Green Lanterns are like space cops right?

Sis: Yup.

Me: Then why do they suck at their job?

Sis: …Uuhhhh…

Me: Like, they let Krypton explode and let everyone on Tamaran get enslaved.

Sis: The GL core is like one cop watching over all of New York City, Things are gonna fall through the cracks.

Me: Those are some big-assed-cracks… but doesn’t every planet have, like, 3 green lanterns?

Sis: Nope. Those three are for the entire solar system.

Me: 3 guys for 8 planets?!

Sis: Yup. Like I said, things fall through the cracks.

flinging your friends over your shoulder like potato sack. dangling them by the scruff stacking them up in your arms like laundry shoving them into your purse etc etc i love it

crack au where hal has to babysit the cosmic parasite that’s obsessed with him, it’s awful and everyone is very tired

Green Lantern: Legacy (2020) by Minh Le

As a second generation immigrant this comic means so much to me. Community is so important! I love the idea of a local hero and I hope to see Tai Pham more often from now on!

loving these headcanons!! <3

im adding more:

-kyle would definitely keep a pokemon deck with him at all times

-the lanterns tried to beat minecraft together one time and it failed horribly 

-the lanterns are still confused on how simon is the only lantern batman tolorates. 

-the alien GLs know more earth songs like “another one bites the dust”, “dont stop me now”, “im still standing”, “toxic”, “wannabe”, “say my name” and "i want it that way” because the GLs just breaks into song EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. 

-the alien GL’s know vines because sometimes the GLs would quote them. (adding to this, whenever the GL’s mess something up at oa, the aliens nearby collectively say “ADAM”)

-guy has a collection of stickers and gives the stickers to the GLs. 

-tai does competitive trampolining

-the guardians had to ban trampolines one time because tai was using them to freaking jump high into the sky in oa, freaking out the GL’s. (adding to this, an alien thought he was the messiah or something)

-during a mission, tai sang “chug jug with you” and “revenge” while he defeated an alien army with john because he’s a meme kid

some random lanternfam headcanons:

all of them have extreme cases of “jet lag” every time they’re on earth since the concept of day & night doesn’t really exist in space

john makes dad jokes. and laughs at his own dad jokes

carol and john are both really good at the deadpan, totally straight-faced kind of sarcasm. the two of them have managed to totally convince kyle that kilowog is actually the king of his planet

(meanwhile kilowog wonders why rayner has started bowing every time they see each other, but he’s not questioning it)

the earth lanterns have randomly broken out into song so often that a lot of the alien GLs now know all the lyrics to Stayin’ Alive

hal and guy have an unspoken competition to eat the grossest alien foods. john is constantly worried for their safety

the other lanterns all have to put up with simon and jessica’s mutual pining and it drives them nuts

(hal and carol have flashbacks to when guy and john were going through the same phase)

sometimes the others will forget that guy used to be a teacher, and then he absentmindedly does something like give them little sticker constructs

carol still eats cheap takeout almost every day but she will absolutely spend her CEO money on buying a billboard near hal’s house just to print “Green Lantern Sucks!” on it

simon learned a bunch of magic tricks for his nephew and is really good at them, especially card tricks. he once saved himself and jess from being arrested by aliens with an impressive sleight-of-hand, and he’s ridiculously proud of that fact

jessica randomly bought a yankee candle for guy because “it made me think of you” and guy had to hold back tears

john plays minecraft, and he’s the kind of guy who makes really elaborate buildings and sculptures and redstone contraptions. he’s an architect, okay? it’s fun

kyle and jess also play minecraft together, but only with a pokemon mod

including earth, guy and john have gotten married on 31 separate planets and counting 

Sinestro: *has a blade against Tomar's throat*

Sinestro: just give me a reason!

Hal: 🎶🎼🎵 just a little bit's enough 🎵🎼🎶

Kyle: 🎶🎼🎵 Just a second, we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again🎵🎼🎶

Guy: 🎶🎼🎵 it's in the stars, it's been written in the scars of our hearts🎵🎼🎶

John: 🎶🎼🎵 we're not broken, just bent and we can learn to love again 🎵🎼🎶

Sinestro:I...what?...WHAT?!

Tomar: Kill me. In the name of our old friendship, kill me NOW
