The Flash and Green Lantern's latest team-up only emphasizes just how different the DC Universe has become since their early days as heroes.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary When the DC world was new, the problems facing heroes like Green Lantern and the Flash were simple: confront a villain, surrender them to the proper authorities, and "get the girl." When a recent team-up has them reenacting their old roles, however, things take a turn for the philosophical as the heroes reflect on a world that has largely moved past such shenanigans — and may be moving on without them.
Jeremy Adams, Xermánico, Romulo Fajardo Jr., and Dave Sharpe's Green Lantern #4 sees Hal Jordan teaming up with Barry Allen after a dire meeting with Sinestro. The two respond to an attack on Los Angeles in the hope they will find Sinestro there, but it turns out to be the work of the D-list villain Major Disaster. Pulling out their old tricks, the Flash and Green Lantern make quick work of Major Disaster.
Their moves aren't the only things getting old, however, as their conversation afterward revolves around how DC's kids — now the flagship team the Titans — have grown and how Carol has moved on and away from her relationship with Hal. Barry is quick to try and encourage Hal to not give up on her, but their talk is bittersweet.
By rehashing a similar plot, Green Lantern #4 points out that, while many heroes have moved on since the storylines of the Silver Age, Hal's version of Green Lantern seems stuck in place. His attempts to woo Carol throughout the Dawn of DC series are the kind of smarmy shenanigans that could be seen as romantic in the past, but now come off as desperate and contrived.
Green Lantern's Pursuit of Carol Ferris Reflects His Stagnant Status Quo While Barry is there to help talk Hal out of his funk — and particularly away from his pursuit of Carol — the moment is a telling one. The DCU has long since moved away from the lone cowboy shenanigans that are Hal's specialty, but he's still out there popping meteors with pool cue constructs and snatching bombs with giant green hands.
