Influences Part 4

Comic Books

If you’ve been hanging out here on the blog or on my twitter feed, you know by now that I am a huge comic book geek.  I once had a monthly habit that was the equivalent of a car payment.  Not a nice car.  Not even a good car.  Probably more like an ‘ok’ [...]

The majority of my exposure to DD came in the form [...]

The Original Green Lantern

Before Hal Jordan or John Stewart, Guy Gardner and Kyle Rayner came along, there was another Green Lantern.  The Original.

Born in the ‘Golden Age of Comics’ (1930’s-1940’s), this Green Lantern was more magical than SciFi.  His name was Alan Scott.

Alan’s story is different.  Created in the late 30’s/early 40’s by Martin Nodell, The Green Lantern’s [...]
