History WMG / GreenLantern

When you consider one Green ring chose a Lantern from a species of horse named Brin (albeit not from Earth), and didn't specify whether his successor, T-Cher, was built before or after being chosen; and that a Red ring was able to work on an average Earth cat, it makes the fact that there are so many non-humanoids in each Corps without opposable thumbs, or even limbs for that matter, more obvious.

[[WMG:Barack Obama is a Blue Lantern.]]
Possibly, he's also Agent Spin.
* Please let this be canon and have him fight a Black Lantern Abraham Lincoln.
* Better yet, Black Lanterns of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X.
* Screw that. I wanna see Blue Lantern Obama vs. Black Lantern Strom Thurmond.
** But no Lantern can fight a Black Lantern alone. He would need the help of a Green Lantern.
*** ''Joe Biden of Sector 2814, you have the ability to overcome great fear...''
*** How about Bill Clinton as a male Star Sapphire?
*** Red Lantern Rahm Emmanuel!
*** Dude, have you heard the type of rage George Washington was capable of? He'd be a perfect Red Lantern.
** Furthermore, the entire Bush administration were Yellow Lanterns.
** Reality check, Obama [[WhamLine murdered people for personal and political gain]](See: Barrack Obama's Fast and Furious), so he'd be an Orange Lantern. Or a Yellow, like [[PointyHairedBoss Hillary]] [[VillainWithGoodPublicity "Butcher of Benghazi" Clinton.]] [[note]]While she was Secretary of State, she decided to [[TemptingFate reduce security for the American embassy in Benghazi one day.]] She then [[WhatAnIdiot ignored multiple requests to give the security back, even when death threats from local Terrorists were issued, violating the "Raise security when terrorists issue death threats" protocol]]. The Embassy was attacked by terrorists. A Fleet Antiterrorism Security Team was dispatched from America, and then ordered to fly back to America, deplane, change into civilian clothes, leave behind any weapons that couldn't be concealed by civilian clothes, on Hillary's orders. Only then was the FAST team allowed to fly to Benghazi. People died on her watch because she's either spectacularly bad at her job, or spectacularly corrupt. Anyone who talked to the press about these facts was slandered and labelled as "Racist against wimmin", predictably.[[/note]]

[[WNG:The "Guardians" are not the real Guardians.]]
* The actual Guardians are dead ever since Hal Jordon got possessed by Paralax and destroyed them along with most of the Green Lantern Corps. Kyle Rayner never brought the Guardians back, he merely created a facsimile of them based on what little he knew of them. This is also why the Guardians grow steadily more unreliable and even psychopathic after their "resurrection," they're a bunch of fakes forced into a role they were never actually suited for.

The ''Zero Hour'' CrisisCrossover involved Hal Jordan, who had done a Main/FaceHeelTurn and renamed himself Parallax, trying to go back to the beginning of time and alter history -- originally, just to prevent the events that had driven him evil, but quickly Main/JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope into remaking the universe to his liking. Note that the universe ''did'' get {{reboot}}ed, and history did get changed, but the heroes prevented Parallax from changing it as he liked. Later, it was [[Main/{{Retcon}} revealed]] that Hal had been [[Main/MoreThanMindControl More Than Mind-Controlled]] due to the influence of an ancient, cosmic fear entity named Parallax. Further revelations included characters that he had supposedly killed being alive. So, what if, filled with regret over what he'd done, he succeeded in changing things, undoing and excusing his actions?

* She's a ''Violet'' Lantern. Hal's been too busy with GreenLantern duties to be a good boyfriend. It seems the Violet Lantern Corps wants to recruit lovers who feel their love is unrequited.

** [[spoiler: Confirmed in ''GreenLantern'' #59. The Indigo Tribesmen are chosen by the rings ''because'' they lack compassion -- the rings channel the power of the Compassion Entity Proselyte and forces it upon them.]]

After he comes off his bout of temporary deadness, he'll take this lesson to heart so much that he'll rival SpiderMan.

** Why is it every time there's enough people in a group people try and shoehorn them into the SevenDeadlySins? This is far and away the worst case of SquarePegRoundTrope I've ever seen.

[[WMG:VideoGame/OsuTakateOuendan and the VideoGame/EliteBeatAgents are Blue Lanterns.]]

While the Guardians were rather morally ambiguous already, they fully became evil after Krona's attack. Why? Because they were possessed by the Emotional Entities. The Guardians have been suppressing their emotions for ''eons'', and generally have a negative opinion of them. When the emotional entities possessed them, they forced the Guardians to feel emotion to the extreme-effectly [[MindRape mind-raping them.]] This experience destroyed their semblance of sanity, and after having to deal with it made them outright despise emotion. Consciously, they justified [[TheEvilsOfFreeWill their Third Army]] with the excuse that they were simply carrying out their billions-year old mission. Subconsciously, they're so terrified of emotion that they're willing to [[PutThemOutOfMyMisery obliterate it entirely by]] [[FateWorseThanDeath removing the ability to feel it.]]

* Ophidian is the basis for stories dealing with the fall of man-he's as much representing [[Literature/TheBible the Fall of Man]] as [[Myth/GreekMythology Pandora's Box]]. Ophidian became the way he is by trying to obtain greater knowledge, [[GoMadWithTheRevelation which consumed his mind and turned him into greed itself.]] This action later based the concept of the Tree of Knowledge

That is, if the writers decide to draw a parallel to, or possibly rip-off, ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'' (spoiler alert for those who haven't read it). Now if you recall, Sam initially wanted to kill Golum, but didn't because of Frodo. That turned out to be a good thing since Frodo went a little crazy in Mount Doom and was probably going to kill Sam, but in his ring-induced madness, Golum bit the Ring off of Frodo's finger and fell into the magma, ultimately destroying the ring and stopping the BigBad, but I digress.

* The Starheart was a SealedEvilInACan artifact made by the Guardians. The New 52 Alan Scott is in [[AlternateReality another reality]], and seems to be getting his power directly from his Earth. This might have freed up the New 52 Starheart to be used in some capacity in the current storyline.

** Reality check, Obama was a terrible president who [[WhamLine murdered people for personal and political gain(See: Barrack Obama's Fast and Furious]]), so he'd be an Orange Lantern. Or a Yellow.

Krona broke the universe somehow at its creation by trying to observe it. The white light split into its component colors at creation. It doesn't take GeoffJohns to connect the dots (though I wouldn't put it past him to put a twist on it like he did with the White Lantern).

[[WMG:OsuTakateOuendan and the EliteBeatAgents are Blue Lanterns.]]

After the failure of Ryan Reynolds to interest the mainstream audience in the ''Green Lantern'' franchise, then the outstanding popularity of Rocket Raccoon in ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy'' could suggest another way. Namely, the closest equivalent in TheDCU to Rocket is Green Lantern Ch'p or his successor, B'dg, so WB may well decide that a cute BadassAdorable kicking butt with a power ring might be just the way to appeal to the general moviegoing public.

** Green Lantern stand-alone stories take place in the Amalgam Universe. (Franchise/StarTrek is fictional in TheDCUniverse, but is real in the MarvelUniverse.)

Not so much a guess as a '''''[[Creator/BillHicks fervent prayer]]'''''. Taking BlakeLively out of the equation can only improve things immensely.
