So you think Lar can beat up a team that consist of Thor, Hyperion, Ironman, Captain Marvel, and Hulk, while holding back? What are you basing this off of?

Did you see his fight against that Trans cosmic team he fought in his series? Yes, he would do it.

And since you think that 4 Guardians make a match for Odin....

Also this:

"We are as strong as the Guardians of the Universe..."

I feel bad for you durpalm

I think Larfleeze's showings against House of Tuath-Dan are just as good if not better than the Controllers. Op and I think they're all trans, if not very High end heralds.

I think that it is a little too early to make this thread. Starbrand has yet to even be fleshed out.

Very good showing. I didn't mention it because I'm not sure it still qualifies as "pre-Flashpoint" Larfleeze. /sshrug

Yes. We saw that battle during New Guardians. However, Lantern continuity remained unaltered by the Flashpoint reboot initially--so that *should* have been the same Larfleeze in both instances.

Wait, how? Or was it something similar to the first crisis when they were "outside the universe" at the time.

F---ing DC continuity, man. Smh.

It was Johns. In a nutshell: he wasn't done with his stint on GL when the whole Flashpoint thing happened, so his GL continuity remained intact afterward... Almost like it was an offshoot.

No in-universe explanation was given.

Lol. Well, ok. I'm done trying to figure it out anyway. Thanks though.

It's pretty much over brother. Time to let the Starbrand go, at least till another writer comes along and undoes the damage Hickman did to it and the rest of the NU.

Nah, Kevin is about to get a new series. The last showing that he had, he was said to be a Star God when he had a run in with another of his kind. It's just too early in the game to place him against high powered guys like Larfleeze. I can almost guarantee that he is well above Nova Prime though. He went from shrugging off mid level attacks by the Avengers to being cut by a butcher knife, which shows that the Brand makes it's user as powerful as they imagine that they are.

I've given up all hope. You see the latest Marvel Zombies scans in the Ownage thread (thanks to OneAngryScot)?

A Bloodstone wielder laughed off an attack by the Asgardian Destroyer, then retaliated and slagged it. I don't see the this Starbrand doing that.........EVER.

Green Lantern has seem some alterations of course of course over time, but its continuity actually goes all the way back into the early 70s at the very least [where my collection begins] and has largely been unhindered and unchanged by Crisis events.

Wait and see. Just remember what he did to those star ships in that story with the Alephs. Forget the name of the series. You simply have to give it some time. I'm pretty sure that you're going to change your mind.

It's actually trickier than that. Because the Guardians and most of the Corps was untouched by the original Crisis (CoIE), but a couple GLs were present for it and affected by it, iirc. So it depends.

And they were untouched by FP apparently?! Were they eventually rebooted by it, or not at all? And, according to Galan, there's no in-comic explanation for it. I mean, Hal certainly seems different. Surely he can't be pre-FP Hal....right???

I kinda like the idea that there exists characters who are untouched by continuity for literally decades, but I remain skeptical.

If Hal was untouched by the continuity shift why didn't he go up to Superman and say "nice change of costume, you finally realized how stupid it looked to be wearing your undies on the outside". Or, "Why are you with Diana, what happened to Lois?".

Just to clear it up for me, the reason Larfleeze is so powerful is because he is the Orange Lantern Corps, right? He's the Guardians, the Lanterns, the power battery, etc... All rolled up into a single package, correct?

He's also pretty much uninhibited, and the orange spectrum is quite powerful, bring far from the centre.

That, along with the fact that he has used very little energy from his Battery(relative to the other Corps', of course):

IOW, he also possesses a much greater reserve of energy than the others.
