Beside the point, but, Nova? That sleeveless red costume and the gold belt/side stripe/boot-cuff (?) thing?

I enjoyed the second episode of LANTERNS more than I enjoyed the first, but I still feel like if the first time your Green Lantern show features someone flying in space is at the end of episode two, you’re doing something incorrectly on a basic, fundamental level.
"But but but the Lanterns ARE space cops it SHOULD be a detective show where they wear brown jackets and say 'fuck' a lot and look for a murde-" HAL JORDAN ARRESTED GOD ONCE, FUCK OFF WITH THIS NEBRASKA SHIT.

I enjoyed the first episode of Lanterns but I cannot believe the amount of people talking about how it is, just as a single episode, some sort of high point of superhero media. It was a detective show with a handful of special effects. A good detective show, and good special effects. But still.

That said I remain amused & baffled by the people online claiming to be big comic book fans who are like "I don't understand how this can be so dark but in the same universe as Superman '25!" as if massive style & tone shifts from title to title haven't been a part of comic books for decades.
The pilot was good enough just as a show that I'm going to keep watching it, but I'm not going to argue that you're missing some brilliant new take on the material.
As with a lot of (though not all) superhero media in which James Gunn has a hand, LANTERNS- at least in the first episode- is very good at being what it is, even if that's not exactly what I want from a show about Green Lantern.
