Look , I ’m as big aGreen Lanternfan as there is , but even I have to admit , there ’s one baddie that truly deserve to have some kind of win . I know Hal Jordan is a great Cuban sandwich , and he keeps the universe safe , but even Hal he ’d agree one foe got an incredibly raw trade .
It ’s not like Green Lantern does n’t already have tragic baddie . Sinestro was arguably tryingto do the right affair ( in his mind ) before being disgraced from the Corps . And even a fiend like Black Hand never really had a chance . But one villain has had such a unfit journeying , I ca n’t help but think he deserves some sort of victory , no matter how little .
Green Lantern’s New Villain Sorrow Should Get at Least One Win
This Poor Sap Has Just Had Misfortune After Misfortune
In typesetter’s case you have n’t been readingJeremy Adams and Xermánico’sGreen Lantern(which you perfectly should ) , you might not be familiar with a character named Nathan Broome . Broome was introduced inGreen Lantern # 2as Carol Ferris ' fiancé , who Carol had met while Hal was off - world . And yeah , I detest love triangles as much as anyone else , but unlike the Pauls of the earthly concern , I thought Nathan was actually a likable character reference . He was n’t a jerk to Carol , and he actually tried to get along with Hal ( the Green Lantern , of course , was trying to woo Carol the total clip ) .
Carol attempted to move past her relationship with Hal for adept and prefer for an impromptu Vegas wedding ceremony . Nathan went along with it , just felicitous to finally tie the international nautical mile . However , the couple ’s marriage ceremony was interrupted by a Star Sapphire ring , which sought out Carol because Green Lantern was in trouble . Carol turned runaway bride and endure out into space for Hal , leaving poor Nathan at the altar . Nathan was incredibly heartbroken after the wedding fell through , andthanks to the desolation to the Emotional Spectrum due to Lord Premier Thaaros , Nathan ’s sorrowfulness manifested as a new emotional vim .
Nathan was now the villainous Sorrow , who was snare in a never - ending bike of lugubriousness .
Nathan was now the villainous Sorrow , who was pin in a never - ending cycles/second of sadness . Sorrow render seeking retaliation on Star Sapphire , who saw what had happened to Nate for the first time . Sorrow ’s empathic abilities set aside him to bring down muscular sadness on others . Unfortunately , he ran off before he and Carol could make up . Sorrow is still consumed by his pain and is willing to do anything to see it out . He ’s even teamed up with Starbreaker , who has promise to help terminate Nathan ’s pain , butis really concerned in using Sorrow ’s power to create a ' Starbreaker Corps ' .
Sorrow Needs a Win, But What Does That Look Like?
Defeating Green Lantern or Finding Peace Within Himself?
I had been wondering when someone was blend to add an emotion like unhappiness to the Emotional Spectrum , but now I actually kind of regret it . Nathan was n’t a bad someone , just a bozo who was in the wrong kinship at the amiss clip . Now he ’s consumed by the most awful touch someone can experience and there is virtually no way of stop over it . It ’s no wonder he hate the Emerald Knight so badly . If I survive through half of what Nathan did , I ’d need to kick Green Lantern ’s ass , too .
The accuracy is , Hal and Carol both make Nathan extreme excited infliction .
We ’ve only gotten to see Hal and Nathan campaign once , and it was over before it began . But Sorrow is a large part of the current arc , which take Starbreaker gathering resources to make a new Power Battery and capitalize on Sorrow ’s ability . I ’ve got no doubt that we ’re going to be seeing more from Sorrow , but I go for his presence is n’t denigrate in favour of Starbreaker . Sorrow hasa deep connection to both Green Lantern and Star Sapphire and I really want to see their confrontation come to a head , hopefully with Sorrow getting some sort of triumph .
Hal and Nathan struggle in the recentGreen Lantern : Fractured Spectrum # 1special !
Now , when I say I want Sorrow to win , I do n’t mean he needs to literally defeat Green Lantern and bring low-down misery to the DC Universe . I need him to find peace . The truth is , Hal and Carol both stimulate Nathan utmost excited pain . It ’s not their fault that lined up with the Emotional Spectrum behave erratically , but they play a part in Sorrow ’s situation . It ’s up to them to facilitate him find heartsease so he can get back to normal and at last move on with his life .
Sorrow Isn’t Too Far Gone Yet, But Green Lantern Needs to Act Fast
The Emotional Spectrum is Too Unpredictable Right Now
I do n’t think it ’s impossible to keep open Sorrow . It ’s going to be severe , for sure , because he ’s in such pain and Nathan is n’t thinking straight . Plus , as long as the Emotional Spectrum is break , this is an extremely volatile and unpredictable position . But Nathan ’s been through hell and I recall ifGreen Lanternand Star Sapphire are unforced to put in the work , they can aid Sorrow overcome the extreme sadness plaguing him .
