I Like the New Lanterns Trailer
Yesterday, we got our first trailer for the new Lanterns TV show, about Green Lanterns Hal Jordan and John Stewart. I’m very excited for this show, because I’m a big fan of everything James Gunn is producing for the DCU. But the trailer looks very odd for a Green Lantern TV show, see if you can spot why.
So yeah, not much Green Lanterning in this supposed Green Lantern TV show. And you know what? I’m fine with that. Doesn’t bother me at all. As much as I enjoy the space cops and the rainbow Lantern corps, I don’t need that in every adaptation. We had that with the Green Lantern movie and it was weird. So if the showrunners and producers want to go in a different direction with this TV show, I’m perfectly fine with that. I am more than willing to let them cook.
The actors come off very well, I really like that snippet of Hal Jordan flying, and I’m confident this will be a good show.
Lanterns is coming to…whatever remains of HBO in August.

6 Thoughts on Superman (Review)
This review is about two weeks late and I apologize for that. Such is life, eh? Anyway, I saw Superman opening weekend in the theater and had a blast. I was very much looking forward to this movie and had nothing but faith in James Gunn to deliver, and he did so in spades. Great film!
Movie Rating: 9/10 – Great
I was mostly lukewarm on all the DCEU movies. I didn’t care for Man of Steel and, even though I think I’ve only seen it that one time in theaters, I just don’t care for it. I probably enjoyed Joss Whedon’s Justice League more than Zack Snyder’s Justice League. I enjoyed both Aquaman movies. But I am more than ready for James Gunn to deliver a new, better DC Cinematic Universe. Let’s hope they’re all as good as Superman.
Join me after the jump for my full review and thoughts on Superman. Expect SOME SPOILERS for the movie. And feel free to share your own thoughts in the comments below.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 6/7/25
Summer is upon us and the heat is turning up. I’ve got my air conditioner fully installed and it’s still going strong after nearly 20 years keeping me cool. This thing is a beast! And it keeps me cool to read more comics, like Imperial and Power Rangers Prime!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Superman #8 because greatness is as greatness does, people. It’s not my fault this comic is so damn good with every single issue!
Meanwhile, I’m still in the pre-endgame of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. I tend to only play video games on the weekends these days, which is a good way to stretch out games. Death Stranding 2 doesn’t come out until the end of the month, after all. Beyond that, I watched and didn’t care for The Better Sister, and I’ll hopefully spend this weekend watching that new Predator anime and the new Wes Anderson film in theaters!
Comic Reviews: Absolute Green Lantern #3, Absolute Superman #8, Imperial #1 and Power Rangers Prime #7.
