*In the Sector 2814 group chat*

Hal: ugggghh if I have to put up with Spooky’s grumpy ass for another minute I’m gonna snap. Someone please switch with me?

Guy: lmao no

John: I know Justice League duty can be a chore sometimes but we all have to do our fair share

Hal: Kyle please I’ll buy you a new sketchbook

Kyle: nice try I know you’re as broke as I am

Hal: Damnit. Baz, Cruz, if I said you two could go together…

Simon: Nope

Jessica: We’re not the newbies anymore, you can’t make us do anything

Jo: Don’t even think about it

Hal: …

Hal: new idea, we make our own Justice League. We have enough people for one

I know several comics have tried to explain why Earth has so many GLs, but I don't know if any have ever addressed the fact that all of them are from the same country. All seven humans who've been recruited to the Green Lantern Corps (in main DC continuity at least) being from the US has some kinda funny implications

Like, is it something inherent to American culture and how it shapes people to be particularly capable of overcoming great fear? Or is it the fucking corn syrup that gets pumped into all the food and drinks here?

Teen Lantern being from Bolivia is the only reason these guys still recite the actual GL oath instead of the Pledge of Allegiance
