Lanterns has finally arrived! We’re breaking down the series premiere, from Hal Jordan and John Stewart’s buddy cop energy to the mystery at the center of the story. What worked? What didn’t? And does this finally feel like the Green Lantern adaptation we’ve been waiting for? We’ll dig into the episode’s characters, performances, world-building, and biggest moments. Plus, we’ll revisit some of the predictions we made before the premiere and see how badly we managed to get things wrong.

We’re back baby!

Before Lanterns premieres, we’re taking a look at what DC’s newest series has in store. We’ll talk about Hal Jordan, John Stewart, the murder mystery at the heart of the show, and the show’s creative team (Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof, and Tom King) and look at what their previous work might tell us about the kind of Lanterns we’re about to get. We’ll also revisit 2011’s Green Lantern movie and ask whether this new series can finally get the character right.

Then we’ll share our hopes, concerns, and predictions for the first season, from the mystery at its center to the larger DC Universe connections. And before Episode 1 gives us any answers, we’ll put our wildest theories on the record so we can see just how wrong we were later. Definitely check it out!
