The Cosmic Queen

Being a Green Lantern fan is truly a liberating experience because some rando can send you a twelve page essay about why your fav is an absolutely horrible character that no one should like and then every single reason they list is why you like them. Yes Jo in Absolute Green Lantern was a shitty partner to her ex??? It’s part of what makes her interesting??? Yes Kyle is genuinely a little stupid sometimes??? It’s funny??? Yes Hal is Hal??? It’s why I’m here??? I never feel scared to say all these guys and gals kinda suck it’s part of the charm. I’ve never heard a single Hal fan not call him a pathetic loser. I’ve never heard anyone say Kyle is a smart guy, creative sure, but he also wrote his own name when signing autographs as Green Lantern. He’s dumb.

Was driving with my grandmother and in broken English she says “no eyes… no nose… no face. Don’t trust.” To which I looked around wildly in search of this omen of ill portend.
