Since the latter is an assumption, you need to prove it.
To me an energy attack laced with blood isn't too radical of a change to insinuate it shouldn't carry some of the attributes of its base lantern energies. So maybe this will then be one of those agree to disagree threads.
Askin for a red lantern in mu though....
hilarious... sorry
Red Spectrum energy is a little bit rage, a little bit blood magic. It's powerful enough to effortlessly tear holes in space/time.
I wouldn't be surprised either way (Stormbreaker absorbing it or not), tbh

The hammers aren't auto-wins against Lantern types, no.They are an significant advantages against said enemies, especially if they're subject to very finite power levels and susceptible to draining or just using up energy in the midst of a prolonged battle.
Not spent THAT much time with the Red Lanterns, tbh.
Is Atrocitus like that?
Originally posted by BrockalizerIt's not really in character for Bill to absorb energy like Thor does. Using Stormbreaker to block energy attacks? Sure. Using Stormbreaker to create a fully encapsulating shield against attacks? Sure. Absorbing/redirecting energies, though? Not so much.
Do you have evidence that it can't be absorbed or are you just making an assumption? Until it is stated on panel that it can't be, then it is absurd to assume that Atrocitus is the sole exception to the rule.
...And given the new revelation that the red energy is primarily magic-based (obviously high-level magics), I definitely don't see Bill absorbing it... Stormbreaker may be capable of such, I just don't see Bill using it to do so.

I don't generally accept that mjolnir and stormbreaker are auto-wins against Lanterns. Sure, against fodder maybe, but against seasoned vets?No, imo.
Seasoned and named lantern vets should always be a solid enuff match for BRB. Taking Atrocitus here for the slight majority...

Happened in a RL/Stormwatch crossover (Red Lanterns #10)
Note that he accomplished this after the Central Red Lantern battery was poisoned. The entire RL Corps was dying because the Red Lantern energy literally replaces their life force.
A Red Lantern was captured by Stormwatch (who brought him to their base in hyperspace (which exists outside space). Atrocitus sensed the Red Lantern energy and thought it was Abysmus (who poisoned the battery).
"I'll probably die out here. We ALL will."
"Our Central Battery has been poisoned, Bleez. That means no Red Lantern can last long"
Atrocitus: "He's here! Somehow hiding... in a void...beyond the fabric of space itself. In which case... I shall... incinerate space..."
Atrocitus: "... and then tear nothingness itself"
