Lanterns

_In brightest day, in darkest night, I'll embrace my fear, I'll do what's right, I choose this ring, I choose this fight, In service to this lantern's light._

Arguably my favorite show of 2026. As a life long Green Lantern fan and comic book reader, I’m well aware of the changes made and liberties taken by the writers. That being said - WOW did these creatives understand who these characters are and execute one hell of a story that I felt did tremendous justice to the source material while also making the property their own. Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre are near perfect casting choices for Hal Jordan and John Stewart and their chemistry and dynamic carries every second of every episode in what might be the DCU’s best entry yet!

Spoiler Alert: Kyle Chandler’s Hal Jordan is the most compelling character introduced so far in the new DCU and he’s killed off in the first episode.
