If Larfleeze has the power of the entire orange corps at his disposal, why isn't he as powerful as Classic Ion or Hal Parallax?

He doesn't have all that power inside of him like they had, he just has the power of his entire corps.

But could he take all that power into himself like they did? And if so, what about Predator and the others that we are going to see?

Given that Classic Ion could do just about anything at full power, Parallax likewise, having seven guys like this around could get crowded.

Theoretically, yes.

We're just going to have to wait and see. 🙂

Yeah, hope AO makes it past the Black Lanterns...

Shit.

Like, as in 'Dat's da Shit!'

Or the idea would be shit?

Second option.

Leave Prime alone for a while, especially from the Corps.

No I do agree...'Legion of 3 Worlds' sucked...along with the rest of 'Final Crisis'...with the sole exception of 'Rage of the Red Lanterns'...

A Black Power Ring for anyone who can explain to me what connection ROTRL had to Final Crisis...

3 worlds was alright. But I may be biased, Conner and Bart were bought back and more Sodam and more Prime.

Am I the only one who is a bit disappointed that Sodam Yat was built up so heavily yet in the LO3W fight Connor and Bart and basically everyone did more damage then him?

You're not the only one...

This storyline really seemed to have no focus...waaaaaaaaaaay too many players.

I am a tad yeah. Would have been nice them both to face him then in that issue Sodam faced him or something.

it's sodam, though. he's, you know, crap.

Yup.

And it was like, we had no reason to be interested in any of these characters. Sodam Yat's going to rebuild the corpse in the future in some odd universe. OK? What do we care, y'know?

Apparently, Krypto plays a role in Blackest Night. He's rumoured to be

Spoiler:
taking on Dex Starr, the Red Lantern Cat.
No idea how true it is, though.

I've heard that as well. Pretty sure it's true, which is awesome. I'd imagine that it takes place in the Superman tie in which also features

Spoiler:
Black Lanterns Superman of Earth 2, Psycho Pirate and possibly (this is just online speculation) Superboy's body. LO3W revealed him to be alive, but in the future, so there's technically still a corpse in the present, right?

Oddly, despite all these much loved Superheroic events going on, one of the things I'm really looking forward to is Hal's interaction with his father which has been key over the latest GL series. Hopefully we'll find out his Dad's last words......

Yat sucks so its normal

BN:Tales of the Corps # 3 was a disappointment. While I dont mind origin stories, make them tie into the freaking event.

Alrighty people! Anyone who can answer this question will receive the ICON's seal of approval 🙂

While this is not strictly a Blackest Night question, it kind of ties in...and I didn't want to start a new thread.

Does possessing multiple rings amp your power??? This SEEMS to be the case (Hal in Emerald Twilight beating the crap out of the entire GLC...and Sinestro promising a second ring to whomever took out Hal/Kyle in GL # 25).

BUT...

If so why isn't every Corp looking to have every member wearing rings on all fingers/toes/sexual appendages?? There has to be a reason, but to the best of my knowledge it has never been explained??
