Yeah but still, Atrocitus has been firmly established as a badass prior to that.

I could take him being dominated in a fight...but one-shotted?

eh.

well yea i mean how could atrocitus be an unstoppable force but get KO'ed by AO in one hit

DC's not looking soo hot right now

This is the kind of attitude that puts Wolverine above everybody else in comics. Being badass doesn't mean that you should not go down like a sack of potatoes when you fight someone far more powerful.

I doubt Atrocitus could take Hal in a fight. But the guy who's got the stuff to rival several Guardians, he shouldn't win? 😐

And how is it a one-shot, they're fighting for a couple of pages.

From where??

I posted a link that showed that and so much more spoiler for BL#5, and other stuff.

Obviously, Larfleeze is going to win. Unlike Atrocitus, Agent Orange has an entire Lantern for himself, something no other lantern has. He even has the Entity for himself. He ain't losing to one man with one ring. He wasn't KOed in one hit, but it was rather fast

They are talking about his ability to burn through the Black Lanterns and his ability to not get killed when the BL take his heart

well imo thats kinda murky wording...i mean i get how that makes him powerful but the way it makes him sound...almost like he stands above all lanterns

Those description can always blow out of proportion. You should read some previous one. They make you think something totally different is going to happen, then when you read it, you realize they did it to make you buy it

Who said he shouldn't win?

I said i had no problem with Larfleeze dominating Atrocitus.That sure as hell wasn't a fight though, it was just them playing keep away with the Orange battery.

yea i know what you mean...i wont lie tho i really like the red lanterns and its all because of a thing from my childhood when i was little i read my first few gls and i liked to pretend i was a red one because red is one of my fav colors lol that and out of all of the emotions fear and rage are my favorite...but yea i don't seem to care for how dc feels they have to over do it like that...i mean i like the story so far so its not like they need to lie to me to get me to pick up the rest...they already have me buying issues because of promo rings.

DC hasn't lied to you in any way.

What will be revealed in Green Lantern 50 about Atrocitus has nothing to do with his fight here against Larfleeze- You have not been cheated or lied to in the least.

I do not know.

But how would they reveal something that they have already revealed? It's not something we have already seen.

well you do make a very valid point. Im rather excited to find out what this will be then...i kind of expected the whole BL's takeing a RL's heart would play out as such...although i have to say i did like the way it was it went on panel.

I wouldn't say he's a fanboy writer. SBP aside, he has a habit of depowering those he writes consistently. That's a decidedly anti-fanboy technique right there.

Fanboy in the sense that he plays up his favorite characters.

It's a bit like if Quanchi got to write a Thanos comic.

No worries Black, it'll be something new.

so did a lot of people.

This thread needs conflict.

Everyone decide what corps your the most suited for, get a sig of your favourite member of that corp, then start arguing why it's teh uberest.

Or alternatively, add "PR is a ***" to every post.

Hey PR, could i plz have a sig?

well just picked up my last to promo rings at about 12:40....been wearing the red ever since.

Martian_Mind i wouldn't mind doing that but im not a really angry person but the red lanterns are my favorite sooo does that count?
