BONK! Downtime!?!


Posted in: Uncategorized

 

Hey there, Lantern fans,

We owe you all a huge apology. As you’ve probably noticed, our beloved Green Lantern forum has been out of commission for the last few days. We ran into some technical issues that left us in the dark—no, not the literal Blackest Night kind, but it sure felt that way for a bit.

We know you’ve been missing your regular dose of cosmic conversation, and trust us, we’ve missed it too. In times like this, we can’t help but think of Carol Ferris. She’s been through her share of cosmic chaos and always finds a way to get things back on track. If she can keep Ferris Aircraft flying despite Hal’s best distractions, we can definitely get our forum back online.
