Record high police funding in general too, and continuing to build the border wall, and even more kids in cages happened under Democrats. Fascism is a trajectory the gov't has continued to build towards regardless of which party the president is part of.
We can't expect the Democrat party to save us when they have been active and eager participants in much of what got us here, and completely failed to do anything effective to block the rest. We have to figure out how to save ourselves and each other.

Cop!Sans x Reader Drabble
... Perhaps a new book. Someone stop me there's going to be too many- It's going to be like my list of AUs I've created-
Warnings: Sexual jokes, Reader's a criminal, and running, and just a lil' gremlin. Reader also really doesn't like Royals.
Alarms blared in your ears, telling tales of the cop car wailing that you were bound to hear in a couple minutes.
Sprinting out of the antique museum at breakneck speed, you couldn’t stop the grin that formed on your face. Your heartbeat thundered in your ears, keeping time with your quick-paced footsteps.
You’d done a sloppy job at stealing this time around– far too sloppy. So much so that you were likely going to be caught and arrested, but there was no way you were going down without a fight.
You breathed in the cold night air, reveling in the way you seemed to dodge effortlessly through the crowds– like a predatory animal who knew all too well how to vanish from the untrained eye.
Upper Ebott was never quiet– a massive tourist destination, filled with many national wonders and home to the mountain with the biggest lore in history.
You quickly found your own destination, slipping into a dark alleyway that was the entrance to the man-made maze that the city had unknowingly built.
A hooded figure grabbed your arm, grinning sharply as his saffron-orange eyes met yours. Your grin only returned in kind as you placed the antique crown in his hand.
“Pleasure doing business with you.”
You chuckled in response, patting his upper arm. The smooth material of his waterproof jacket was cold beneath your hand.
“‘Course, Saffron–” You would have continued, had the sound of police sirens not begun to scream through the air.
Saffron nodded quickly at you before sprinting off– far faster than you would ever be.
Man, Saffron was your idol. Such a cool guy.
You shot out of the alleyway and down the street, thinking back on all of the other times you’d had to do this in the past.
You’d grown up a street kid– didn’t have anyone around you to guide you towards riches and money. People just loved to discriminate against you, because they had nothing better to do with their lives.
So excuse you if you decided to attack the Monarchy because they were all rich toris that loved to shit on all of the lower classes.
“stop running and put your hands up!” A baritone shout cut through the air behind you.
Internally, you deadpanned, vaulting over a chainlink fence with a sign on it that clearly stated “NO TRESSPASSING” and continued your run.
Did they actually think you’d stop because they’d given you a chance? In fact– what about that sign was seemingly “stopping” you from getting in here?
Hell, why build a fence out of chainlink if you don’t want reckless people such as yourself to climb over it? They should have at least put barbwire at the top as a deterent (not that it would have stopped you, of course. There were plenty of ways to get around barbwire.)
You glanced around you, realising you were in some kind of company–... ew.
You spared a look at the big ol’ sign on the wall proclaiming that this was the property of his and her majesty and immediately felt the impulsive urge to find some gasoline. Or a match.
Preferably both.
After all, there was nothing you hated more than the monarchy. Not even Kevins and Karens– and that was saying a hell of a lot.
You could hear the footsteps of three people behind you, but you didn’t flinch. Though, you were beginning to reach just about the end of your first wind.
You knew if you were to be caught, it would undoubtedly be a lifetime imprisonment– you were a thief and a murderer, known for targetting rich people and then robbing them blind afterwards.
That was all true, by the way. Most of the unresolved cases around the area were your fault. Honestly, you would have thought the police force would have been smarter– your little “telltale” sign that it was you was the fact that the people were rich.
And also you’d steal their watches and/or bracelets.
… You wondered if you’d ever stolen a heirloom before.
Eh. Probably.
You vaulted over the other side of the fence, beginning to feel the telltale sign of yourself flagging as your heart began to burn.
Just as you’d made it onto a strip of grass, you felt yourself being tackled to the ground. You fell with an “oof” and wiggled around as you tried to escape, looking around at the empty dog park around you.
The distinct smell of a damp forest wafted into your senses, making you think of a gentle stream– one that was currently a raging river.
“you have the right to remain silent.” The same baritone from before growled, grabbing your wrists. The clanking sound of handcuffs caught your attention, and your grin turned sharp.
“Hey, hey, woah there– not even asking for my safeword? That’s not very nice of yo- fuck, ow,” You winced when he pulled your arms uncomfortably behind your back, “–u. My safeword’s peaches by the way–”
“shut. up.” The cop seethed, but you could see the faintest blue glow on your shoulder.
… Blue? Hold up just a fuckin’ second.
“Sans! Have you got the thief?”
… Sans. Sans– why was that name familiar–
…
Ew. Fuck no. YOU WERE BEING HANDCUFFED BY SOMEONE WHO WAS FRIENDS WITH THE MONARCHY?!
“You’re a skeleton.” You numbly muttered, pressing your cheek into the ground to get a better look at Sans as he shouted the affirmative to his colleague.
His bones were white, his skull catching the light of another police vehicle as it turned up. His teeth were slightly parted, sweat dripping down his brow as he took a couple deep breaths. His rib cage expanded and contracted, giving off the effect of breathing even if he wasn’t physically capable of it.
His eyelights, a million shades of very pale blue, were small and sharp-looking, despite still being rounded. His suit– purple, black and white (the colours of the Deltarune Kingdom, you noted)– was scuffed up in some areas– particularly along the sleeve, which needed some major patchwork.
… He had a very light dusting of blue upon his cheekbones, which you immediately grinned at.
“Green light’s for go.” You called teasingly, wiggling your fingers around in their handcuffed hold. Your finger touched the bottom of his palm– warm skin against even warmer bones.
“shut up.” He huffed again, fixing you with a glare. If you’d been unhandcuffed and free, you would have clapped and giggled at the way his blush deepened.
In no time at all, two other officers came to help Sans get you to your feet.
You winked at Sans as he pushed you into the back of a police car, quickly doing your belt and clicking it closed.
“Kinky.” You muttered where his “ear” would be as he did so– referring to the fact you were even more restrained now.
All you got in return was a sharp glare, and more of a blush. Something in you delighted at the fact you could make a mess of a Royal’s friend with just a few simple words.
… Sans gave you the impression he was most definitely a guarded person, and likely wasn’t used to getting flirted with. Well, unluckily for him, as long as he was around you, you’d continue to pester him with the power of your rizz. For the sake of entertainment, of course.
…
You had a feeling the holding cell wasn’t going to be very entertaining. You also wondered when your trial would be, and how much evidence of your crimes they’d gathered.
Eh.
You hummed, sitting as comfortably in your seat as you could while you stared at Sans in the mirror with a grin.
Guess you’d find out, huh?

The Naked Bum, Ch. 4 (M)
Pairing: Jaebum x Mark
Genre: Smut
Warning: Exhibitionism, nudism
Word count: 2839 words
Caught Horny Handed
Jaebum had been in the city for a few months, already loving how much he has dominated many men at this point in time. Though he had never tried to get himself a driver’s license and get around the city in his own car. Typically, he’ll have someone after a good fuck to take him to places, but now he has decided to acquire a car for himself. Getting a car isn’t as easy just as much as driving in one. But he is a very persuasive guy, and unbelievably horny too. He had already arrived at the DMV office, which surprisingly allows nudism to be a staple acceptance in the building. That didn’t bother Jaebum that much, so long as he comes in and signs up for a driver’s license.
Who knew how boring this is, waiting all day and wait for one’s number to be called? After writing down his information, the naked man sat down in one of the opening seats, he spreads his legs a little and starts to jerk himself off to pass the time. Moans were heard from the horny man, as some of the other people around him glanced at him, either disgusted or just plainly watched him. The numbers jumbled on the screen, some have vanished. There wasn’t anyone that caught Jaebum’s attention. But he took his time and continued to motion his hand up and down against the sensitive skin of his big dick.
In the corner of his eye, Jaebum spots a handsome officer who is guarding the side sliding glass doors of the office. He had this sharp jawline and that unique hairstyle. Certaintly he’s not fit to be a police cop, let alone be anything but a model. He looked young, with good hair covered by his cap and has a sweet ass which his tight slacks pressed against it. That made Jaebum stare at the voluptuous shape as his hand worked around his huge cock faster, and was nearing to his release until his number was called. Then he came a few times, thick ropes splatter on the seat before him before standing up and eyes on the officer a bit longer before coming up to the desk. The police man raised a brow, yet also intrigued about this nude guy.
After taking his picture and studying the driver’s handbook, Jaebum spent his time working out in his little gym room and masturbated constantly about the hot officer he saw at the DMV. He certainly was a hot officer to fuck around with. Then a week passed, Jaebum took the test, aced it, and proceeded to get to driving school. Only this time, he has managed to hire a fuck buddy of his who’s also a mechanic to teach him all the kinks and perks on the basics of driving. The nudist is a fast learner, and a hard one when they fucked.
Once the real testing day arrived, Jaebum picked up the man who was going to test him, and was almost shocked by the naked appearance and the huge prick he was sporting with. The nudist smirked as they proceeded with the driving. It was awkward for the passenger, eyeing on his clipboard as he asked to turn a right, a U-turn, to make stops at stop signs, parked at a curb, and so forth. Every once in a while, the driver instructor glanced at the naked man, trying to control himself from getting aroused all at the same time. All the while, Jaebum moaned as he fondled his own sacs while he drove, with one hand on the steering wheel. Finally the instructor had noticed what the nudist was doing, trying to keep his gaze at the man’s face.
“Uhm, Mr. Im. Both hands on the wheel, please,” said the passenger, trying not to look at the muscular man next to him.
Jaebum chuckled, nodding and placed both hands on the wheels. Once they parked at the DMV once more, the instructor had wrote down everything and gave it to Jaebum to look over. He passed. Giving it back, the naked man glanced over, and slowly opened his legs a bit more. The instructor saw this and cleared his throat, glancing over to the nudist’s direction.
“W-What are you doing, Mr. Im?” He asked nervously.
Jaebum smirked. He was already beginning to rub his own abs. “How about a bit of a reward for being the best passenger, hm?” He asked, reaching down to grab his big dick by the base, biting his lower lip in seduction.
The man couldn’t help but feel so aroused at the sight, before giving into the temptation and lunged forward for that aching dick, wrapping his entire hot space around it. Pulling and pushing his head up and down, he started to give a great blowjob on Jaebum’s dick. It made the horny man moan out loud, not realizing that the windows were down. The car began to rumble about as Jaebum placed both hands over the man’s head and fucked his mouth good. The pleasure jolted down on the nudist’s shaft, feeling all the heat around him. More moans spilled as he jutted his hips upwards, making the instructor’s throat gag by the sheer size. The other man almost tried to pull away, but Jaebum’s hand around his hair had prevented him, making him shut his eyes from the water leaking out.
The saliva drooled down on his sacs, as Jaebum lets out a good moan. The nudist felt himself getting close, building up pressure on his already massive dick. “Gonna b-bust…!” He growled and finally unleashes his torrents of cum into the man’s mouth. Pulling away, the nudist grabbed his dick around the base and pumps it to unleash a few more ropes around the man’s face. It was a hot, filthy sight. The instructor could only grin happily, licking off the heavy liquid from his face. “Thanks for testing me, Bambam,” said the nudist with a gratifying smirk.
“Anything for your hot, thick cock, daddy~,” replied the young man, before leaving the car and went back into the DMV to finalize their paperwork. The smell of Jaebum reeked on his clothes, already making the instructor felt all horny again once he reached inside.
The naked man went to the dealership to pick out a good car, which to their surprise, saw how hot Jaebum is. The car that the nudist got was a hot red sports edition, which he couldn’t wait to drive around. While getting through more and more paperwork, the dealer tried to gaze onto the words while writing as the bare man continued to fondle his huge cock, staring at the man before him. It felt truly pleasurable to find such an attractive man like this dealer to be giving him a great car.
“S-Sign here, please, Mr. Im,” the dealer said while turning the paper around and slides it over to the nudist. It was signed, and Jaebum got the car he wanted.
Driving off, he wanted to test out his new shiny vehicle. The naked man stopped at a red light, he bit his lower lip and jerks off feverishly, not caring who he was looking. Then he drove off until he saw the flashing red and blue lights. Much to the nudist’s groan, he had to pull over on the curb. Lowering down his window, his hand was around his still hard cock, waiting for the officer to come by.
Turns out, it was the same police officer as before, the one with the nice perky ass and that same, sharp jawline appeared. This was Jaebum’s opportunity.
“Hello, officer. Did I do something wrong?” Inquired Jaebum, as he was working on himself with a small smirk.
The officer was shocked when he saw the naked man, the same one who was at the DMV. A small bit of arousal was sending signals down his lower region, trying to keep focus on the naked man’s face. He was truly handsome. There were many things he did wrong.
“You… You’re the same guy who was at the DMV a few days ago. You’re naked! And stop masturbating please.” Asked the officer, bending over to make sure he was leveling himself to meet Jaebum’s gaze.
“Okay, officer.” He stopped, but kept his hand around the base firmly.
“First of all, what you’re doing is public decency,” said the officer, shaking his head. “And you went over a stop sign. Twice.”
“Sorry, officer. Are you going to give me a write up on my first day driving?” Asked the naked man, feeling a bit aroused as he started rubbing his own pecs gently.
An insane blush flushed over his cheeks, shaking his head again. “N-No! I mean, hey! I told you stop touching yourself! That’s it, out of the car and put your hands behind your head,” ordered the officer, slowly backing up from the vehicle.
Jaebum sighed and gets off the car before placing his hands over his head. His entire body is completely bare to the officer’s eyes, already lowering his gaze down to that extremely large cock swinging between his legs. Once he stood up completely, the officer tries to look away from all that nudity.
“Wow. Alright, now turn around and press yourself against the vehicle—“
Suddenly, Jaebum was right behind him, his hands over that glorious ass, his face right beside the officer’s ear. He could feel the heat coming from the naked man, as his ass cheeks were being touched and groped. A soft moan was heard from the nudist. There was a hint of dominance radiating from Jaebum, and somehow the officer liked it.
“Sorry, I don’t want to ordered by some officer. But you have a great ass, Mark.” He groaned, his throbbing dick was pressing against that volumptious plump of clothed flesh. The officer blinked, trying to pull himself off from the nude man behind him. "How did you know my-- oh my badge. Hey! Get off me! I'm straight!" But Jaebum was the stronger one, flushing their bodies more until he had the officer pressed against his vehicle. The smell of sex reeked from Jaebum's muscled body, as the officer struggles to release himself.
"Really? You don't look like a straight guy. I'll make sure I give you a write up, baby." Taking one of the handcuffs, the naked man had took a moment to bind Mark's hands and wrists and placed them above his head, cuffing them together. "Now you won't have to struggle so much."
The officer was surprised how fast this was going. He was intoxicated by the smell of lust, at the same time he felt his own erection beginning to tent up in his pants. It was pressing too hard against the fine, tight fabrics. The officer looked over, wanting to say something, "U-Ugh... P-Please unbuckle me..." The nudist took it as he wanted to remove his pants down, which he did so by pulling them down after unbuttoning them. He smirked, biting his lower lip, as that ass was now shown to him. It was so remarkable, and plump that it made his own dick grew an even bigger size.
"Damn, officer. What do you want me to do with this great ass of yours?" he asked, giving it a big spank, watching the skin ripple throughout. God that turned him and the officer on too. Mark could only shut his eyes and moaned before gripping to whatever he could find on the car. "G-God please! I want that fucking big dick of yours... Please, please!" Moans were heard from the officer, trying to shake his ass towards Jaebum.
The nudist was stroking his throbbing dick when he heard those words, standing right before Mark who was bound and already turned on by the hot scene. "I don't want to take you dry, baby. Let me prep you up first." He got down for a moment, opening those two cheeks and allowed his wet muscle to dark through that pink, tight hole. The taste was so addicting, lapping over the entrance. Mark was moaning messily, tilting his head up and bit his lower lip and tries not to get caught like this. Jaebum hummed in joy, still darting his tongue back and forth before standing up and finally lined his big head and pushes himself in. The tightness was constricting the massive size, as Mark yelled out in pleasure. "Oh fuck...! I'm fucking in love with your ass, baby..." Jaebum growled, smacking the ass once more as he pushes himself further.
The size was too much, and the pain strikes at every corner of the officer's body. Once the nudist was inside, he begins to move, snapping his hips back and forth, driving his huge cock in deeper at every thrust. It was an arousing sight, having the naked man fucking an officer in the middle of the street as cars passed by. Some of the drivers slowed down slightly to see what was going on. Mark bends over a bit more, showing more of that perk ass, but his upper uniform prevented him from doing anything flexible. "You love my big cock inside of you, babe? You got the greatest ass ever. I wanna be inside of you all the time..."
Jaebum continued to thrust deeper, watching his already enlarged length stretching every part of the officer's insides. He was holding onto Mark's hips to hoist his body up a little. The pain subsided, and Mark could only feel pleasure. It was numbing him out from the pain, as the naked man continued to fuck every bit of that ass. "Fuck, daddy! Oh shit, your dick is so huge... G-God, fuck me... fuck me harder!!" And the naked man complied, feeling all the pleasures coursing through his muscled body. Seeing that neglected cock of Mark, Jaebum reached over and started to play with his nice, thick length on his hand, which doubled the pleasure for the officer.
Then the naked man was about to cum, growling into his ear. He was pounding the man senselessly, his car had been rocking itself once again. "Do you want my cum? Admit it... You want my cum don't you, officer?" the naked man asked, as the officer responded with a fast nod. "Yes... Please give it to me! Can I cum too, daddy?" Then Jaebum finally juts his hips forward, already spurting out so much cum that some have leaked out from his ass, but Jaebum didn't stop thrusting. The officer moaned out loud, saying the nudist's name and his own thick cock was spurting out cum on his seats. It was a great orgasm. Mark was huffing from the mild heat and their intense fucking.
Glancing over, Jaebum saw the police car parked right behind his car. Jaebum had an idea. Pulling away, he grabs Mark, forcing him to remove his pants from his ankles and takes him over towards the front of the police car. "W-What are you doing?" asked Mark, who was still binded. Then the officer had his entire body pressed onto the hood. Looking over his shoulder, Jaebum who was happened to still be hard again was walking towards him, stroking himself as he came up to him. "That camera over there records everything right? Since it just recorded our fuck session, you get to watch it by yourself or with your other officers, so then they can see how much of a slut you really are for my big dick."
The thought aroused Mark, shuddering at the idea of what Jaebum was doing. He thought the naked man was done. "I-I won't give you a write up... But... oh... shit..." he saw the huge, throbbing cock of Jaebum, smelling him once again. Jaebum grinned wickedly, and had ejaculated once more from all that stroking and lathered up Mark's body and face with his excessive cumming. "I thought you were done..."
The nudist shook his head reaching over to grab Mark's hair and slapped his musky, filthy big dick over his lips. "Nope. Open that mouth of yours like a good officer slut."

Green Lantern Corps: 15 Cameos We Need To See
“Green Lantern” from 2011 left the majority of geeks with a bad taste in their mouths. Many saw it as a failure due to its heavy-handed comedy from Ryan Reynolds, who starred as Hal Jordan, while others felt that Martin Campbell’s film suffered from a weak, unbalanced script that didn’t do the concept of a space saga true justice.
RELATED: Green Lantern Corps: 15 Lanterns We Want to See On Film
This led to the DC film-verse being curated by Zack Snyder through movies such as “Man of Steel” and “Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice,” setting up this year’s “Justice League.” With whispers that a Green Lantern may appear in it and that Warner Bros. are eyeing a Green Lantern ensemble film in 2020, the rumor mill’s in overdrive as to who the studio is eyeing to don the emerald rings and reignite the franchise. While they ponder, CBR decided to look at 15 cameos we hope to see!
SPOILER WARNING: Major spoilers ahead for DC’s slate of movies and Green Lantern comics!
SUPERMAN
Zack Snyder made it clear that Superman (reprised by Henry Cavill) has a big role to play in “Justice League.” After being killed by Doomsday in “BvS,” fans are eager to see how he’s resurrected, especially with Apokolips’ first wave of invasion imminent in the form of Steppenwolf. Whether or not the League actually interacts with a member of the Green Lantern Corps, it’s very much out in the open that Snyder’s filmverse is cosmic-oriented and that the door’s open for space aid.
This paves the way for Superman to appear on Oa as an emissary from Earth, requesting the Corps’ assistance for the incoming Darkseid war; or the story could be shaped where the Lanterns themselves find crucial information at their galactic doorstep, leading to the Sector 2814 (Earth-protecting) Lanterns coming back home to defend the planet alongside the League. The cavalier Hal Jordan meeting this stoic Kryptonian is a mouth-watering prospect which will surely have DC fanboys in raptures, especially with a potential clash of leadership philosophies awaiting.
THE ENTITIES
While the 2011 movie touched on Parallax as the embodiment of fear, eventually corrupting Sinestro, there’s a new opportunity here to traverse the entire emotional spectrum driving life in the DC universe. These entities, each with their own distinct appearance and emotional powers, directly represent the spectrum, and the colors of the rainbow. When combined, their energies form the white light that is in essence the power of life and creation. Red (rage) is embodied by The Butcher (a demonic bull), orange (greed) by the serpent-like Ophidian, yellow (fear) by the insectoid Parallax, and green (willpower) by the fish-like Ion.
Blue (hope) is embodied by the bird-like Adara, indigo (compassion) by the cephalopod figure called Proselyte, and lastly, violet (love) by another insect-like being of energy called the Predator. They’re more than avatars for their respective emotions as they are also seen as the engines of their respective corps, helping power their affiliated teams and their batteries in the eternal war of light. Imagine the visual spectacle they’d provide, even for just a few minutes, adding depth, scale and backstory to the motivation of every colored Lantern and their overall ambition.
CORPS MEMBERS
In Campbell’s film, not many Green Lanterns got enough screen time, apart from Hal and Sinestro. This was understandable as it dealt with the dynamic of Hal’s love for Earth and Carol Ferris, alongside his duty to train with Sinestro. This time around, however, it seems that things will be more focused on the Corps as opposed to just Hal. John Stewart is expected to be a main figure, of course, but we’d love to see the likes of Kyle Rayner, the future White Lantern, and the brash Guy Gardner in the mix.
As for alien species, Kilowog and Tomar-Re are among the few we hope play more prominent roles as opposed to how peripheral they felt in 2011. Soranik Natu, Sinestro’s daughter, is another addition that could foreshadow conflict with her father’s Yellow Corps, as well as Arisia, a love interest that brought quite a bit of drama to Hal’s off-Earth activities. Other candidates include the overly-aggressive female, Boodikka, and Sodam Yat, who actually became the host for the all-powerful Ion entity.
NEKRON
Nekron is the embodiment of death and the reason why “Blackest Night” rocked the DC universe. He hatched a plan to destroy his opposite number, the embodiment of life simply called The Entity. This was executed via a resurrection scheme involving his Black Lantern Corps, the Anti-Monitor’s power, Scar (a corrupted Guardian), as well as a tether to the living world, Black Hand. Nekron ended up being foiled by Hal Jordan, who, along with a few others, temporarily became a White Lantern in the process.
This particular villain heavily influenced Geoff John’s vision of the ominous Book of the Black in “Green Lantern” lore, with the writer painting him as a highly powerful dark force, one that was strong enough to comfortably defeat the Spectre in battle. This soulless creature has the ability to raise the dead, grow in size and kill through his signature black energies. Maybe in explaining the Green Lantern oath or hinting at the legend of the aforementioned Book, we could see the Guardians depicting Nekron as the boogeyman to their illustrious Corps, hinting at an early sign of fear, perhaps?
GREEN ARROW
Sticking to the green theme, there could be an opportunity here for Green Arrow to cameo in the franchise’s revamp, given that Warner Bros. hasn’t made any announcement as to the movie fate of Oliver Queen. While the emerald archer’s in full swing on the CW’s “Arrow,” Hal nodding to the days on Earth with his old friend could be ideal to tell the 1983 story from Dennis O’Neil and Neal Adams, where Ollie’s sidekick, Speedy, was revealed to be a heroin addict.
This was part of DC’s plan to boost “Green Lantern” sales and was a critically received arc, with the revolving stories Hal and Ollie faced being more sociopolitical and grounded, such as corruption, racism and pollution. Their storied history was quite emotional, eventually dovetailing into Ollie feeling remorse for killing a man, which could provide more fodder for the writers to flashback to and show the heroes as truly human. They may not be the most dynamic of duos, but ’80s geeks know how enjoyable Hal and Ollie were as a gritty buddy-cop duo.
VOLTHOOM: THE FIRST LANTERN
Volthoom was a human from an alternate universe who tried to harness the essence of The First Ring, created by Krona, who himself was observing the beginning of the universe. He became unstable but very powerful and was locked away by Oa’s Guardians in the Chamber of Shadows in a black hole. They eventually siphoned his power to create The Third Army to replace the Green Lanterns.
Volthoom eventually broke free and waged war on the various Corps, destroying Sinestro’s homeworld (Korugar) in the process. It took Hal Jordan and Nekron to defeat him, but what makes this character truly intriguing is the sympathy you felt for him due to his treatment by the Guardians. He was curious and terribly human, and even if in just recapping a story in a flashback as told by the Corps seniors, the tales of the First Lantern could set the precedent as to just how tricky things can get with the lure of willpower. They could also touch on how skeptical someone has to be when it comes to the Guardians’ at-times suspicious actions.
MONGUL
Mongul has been one of DC’s biggest galactic threats, often tussling with Superman and other members of the Justice League. What gives this behemoth extra oomph is the weapon known as Warworld, a planetary engine capable of massive destruction similar to the Death Star, as recently seen on “Young Justice.” With Darkseid opening the door to more galactic threats in Snyder’s film-verse, Mongul, due to his super-strength, near-invulnerability and thirst for power, would be another great addition to the mix.
What makes him even more ideal to appear in this movie is the fact that he took over Sinestro’s Yellow Lanterns, renaming them “The Mongul Corps,” only for Sinestro to return and pummel him on Korugar to take back his army. In the past, Mongul also destroyed Hal Jordan’s home, Coast City, and ran afoul of other Green Lanterns such as Kyle Rayner and Sodam Yat later on. He was created by Len Wein and Jim Starlin, who also co-created Thanos, so that in itself could signal that he’s destined for the big screen. We need more alien powerhouses and Mongul definitely fits the bill.
BLACK HAND
Geoff Johns used “Secret Origins” to start updating William Hand as someone obsessed with death, who would go on to become Nekron’s link to the living world. Hand was Nekron’s tether to bringing about the “Blackest Night” prophecy to extinguish life in the DC universe. The former Guardian Scar helped resurrect him as the embodiment of death, after which Hand would go on to lead the Black Lanterns in their war against the other colored Corps.
While this may be biting off too much in the first movie, it would be nice to see the earlier aspects of Black Hand pop up somewhere as he did manage to invent a device that was able to absorb the energy of a Green Lantern power ring. Johns eventually retconned this as being built by the Red Lantern leader, Atrocitus, but that shouldn’t rule out a cameo. Maybe his family’s funeral home, where Hand began his dark descent, could appear, or maybe it’s in a prophecy that warns the Sector 2814 Lanterns that Earth could well be hosting Nekron’s avatar to pure destruction. If the fall of the emotional spectrum is to be foreshadowed, this villain is a must-have!
MOGO: THE LIVING PLANET
We know what you’re thinking, we mentioned other Green Lanterns making a cameo above, but Mogo’s such a grand one that he deserves his own special entry. Created by “Watchmen” creators Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, Mogo acts as a haven for Green Lanterns to recharge and was thrust into an even bigger spotlight than usual in “Blackest Night,” housing the rings of his fallen comrades.
He ended up proving crucial in destroying the Black Lanterns, but this corrupted Mogo and he was destroyed by John Stewart, only to reform in the New 52 where the Guardians tried to use him as part of their Third Army plot. Mogo would continue to help his brethren, even becoming the new Green Lantern headquarters after the First Lantern debacle, proving that he steadfastly remains as loyal as he is big. He channels the energy from the Green power battery and also guides the Corps’ rings to new bearers. If anything, his cameo would be a great combination of spectacle and fan service, which could rival James Gunn’s Ego (another living planet) in the “Guardians of the Galaxy” sequel.
ALAN SCOTT
Alan Scott was the supernaturally-powered Green Lantern of Earth-2 and a key hero in the Justice Society of America. His earliest incarnation saw him become mystically imbued by a lamp, made from the metal of a mysterious meteor that fell from the sky with a green flame. His powers are usually hinted as being connected to the power of the living world. In his New 52 reboot, it was revealed that the source of this power was actually the energies from The Green, similar to Swamp Thing.
It’s unlikely that he’ll share this same space-war universe on film, but maybe he can be mentioned as part of an old fable or joke. Imagine also if we see the Lanterns in their civilian identities back on Earth, and we see Scott in a comic or a cartoon or television show. Ideally, we’d love to see Corps members meeting him on Earth-2, but with the multiverse yet to be fully touched on by Snyder, we’ll settle for any tease we can get for Scott, one of DC’s most endearing and beloved characters.
STAR SAPPHIRE
Carol and Hal Jordan have endured an emotional rollercoaster together. She’s been tied to Hal’s past ever since he lost his father, but her duties as Star Sapphire, chosen by an alien race called the Zamarons, led to several conflicts with the Green Lanterns. She took the villainous role in this feud, especially with the emergence of the Predator, who strongly corrupted her. Eventually, Carol would lead her Corps down a more heroic path, but her relationship with Hal remained forever strained.
This saw her, despite fighting alongside Hal in several battles, eventually falling for Kyle Rayner and even becoming a White Lantern herself. The good thing about this movie not focusing completely on Hal is that we can steer clear of this complicated relationship. Blake Lively did a decent job in 2011, but their romance saturated the movie; when it comes to the Corps, fans will be looking for less love stories and more all-out wars. If her squad cameos, however, it’ll whet our appetites for future explanation; but for now, their past is best alluded to instead of expanded upon. Less love, more fight please.
JESSICA CRUZ & SIMON BAZ
In the comics, Jessica Cruz was forced to don Volthoom’s power ring, which, despite’s Hal tutelage, tried to assert its evil dominance over her in “Darkseid War.” She barely escaped death, with the Black Racer purging Volthoom from her instead. She was then granted a Green Lantern ring in the aftermath. Simon Baz, on the other hand, was a hothead who was chosen by a malfunctioning ring (due to a scheme by Hal and Sinestro), and eventually earned galactic cred against The Third Army and First Lantern.
After endorsing the inexperienced duo as Justice League material, Hal fused their power batteries into one, which can only be accessed when they are together, to ensure they cooperate to graduate from rookie status. With both now intrinsically linked, it’d be nice to see them before they became Lanterns, back on Earth, even if it’s through meeting one of the official Green Lanterns in civilian form. They’ve added diversity to the books through Cruz’s Hispanic heritage and Baz being the first Middle Eastern-American and Muslim Corps member, so why not extend that to the film franchise?
KRONA
Krona, a disgraced Malthusian (the Guardians’ race), proved to be a major thorn in the Green Lanterns’ sides. Obsessed with witnessing creation, he empowered The First Lantern and created a gauntlet which harnessed willpower: the basis for the Green Lantern power ring. His laundry list of no-no’s runs very deep as he was also responsible for the Manhunters (watchdogs of the old cadre of Guardians) attacking Sector 666 and, last but not least, he was a key pawn in Nekron’s “Blackest Night” assault.
What makes the villain’s cameo here an integral one is how he was retconned to tie in to the emotional entities and was revealed to be their original custodian. Krona used his gauntlet to control them in “War of the Green Lanterns” and exact revenge on Oa and its Guardians, who were originally from Krona’s planet, Maltus. His movie cameo could be tied in to when the entities and their emotional tags are glossed over. Krona may not have been a full-fledged Guardian, but he drastically shaped the landscape of the emotional spectrum, as well as the major events that ensued.
OTHER CORPS
Geoff Johns’ modern reinterpretation of the Green Lantern mythos saw him bring the emotional spectrum and all the Corps to us in a way we never thought possible. His stories were exceptionally crafted, which bodes well for the DC filmverse as he’s also a chief architect there. There’d be nothing better for a Green Lantern fan than seeing a montage of the various Corps with one or all of their leaders in the movie’s finale, hinting at big things to come.
Imagine seeing Atrocitus and his enraged Red Lanterns, Larfleeze, the greedy individual who makes the Orange Lanterns so funny yet so dangerous, as well as Saint Walker and the inspirational Blue Lanterns. The most certain bet would be one of Johns’ favorite stables, the Sinestro Corps, but if the franchise is heading down that “Blackest Night” to “Brightest Day” path, then we can’t wait to also glimpse the Indigo Lanterns, perhaps the most alien and unique of them all, along with the Star Sapphires, who have just as much emotional baggage with Hal’s squad as Sinestro’s team. We’re all in and all ready for this war of light!
SINESTRO
To wash the taste of the first movie out of our mouths, the best thing to do would be to not use Sinestro as a major character. Having him lurking in the shadows and making an epic cameo a la Palpatine in the “Star Wars” prequels would be a better direction. After all, it would be boring rehashing him as Abin Sur’s student who trained Hal and then turned on the Green Lanterns.
His villainous legend as the leader of the Sinestro Corps, harnessing the power of fear and Parallax, would be mysterious and silently threatening, also reducing potential convolution in the script. This is the kind of cerebral game Sinestro would play, looming overhead, monitoring the other colored Corps, and waiting like a serpent to strike when the time was right. It would also hype fans even more for when he does eventually come knocking on Oa’s door, via the “Sinestro Corps War,” to undo what he helped build in his altruistic days. In the relationship between Hal and him, the less said, the better, because their dynamic is so strong, we’d be able to fill in the words and betrayal which Hal undoubtedly feels, as well as Sinestro’s resentment.
