Lanterns Episode 8 | Dirt and Starts... And Disappointment?
The Lanterns season finale is here, but did “Dirt and Stars” stick the landing or leave us stranded on a very disappointing planet? We break down the reveal of who killed Hal Jordan, Noah’s plan with Sinestro, John Stewart’s questionable transformation into Earth’s new “Green” Lantern, and the lingering possibility of a Yellow Lantern or Parallax storyline. Plus, we tackle the finale’s rushed family resolutions, missing payoffs, the missing Guy Gardner "One Punch", and whether the Manhunters were ever a real threat, all while asking whether Lanterns is a “Surf Dracula” that spent an entire season building toward a climax that never quite arrived. And, of course, we ask the most important question: just how whelmed are we?
Big news:
After a short break, we’re changing things up! Starting November 1st, we’re going live on YouTube first, with the audio podcast following afterward. We’ll kick things off with a VisionQuest mid-season recap, so subscribe to the Comically Comics Podcast YouTube channel and join us live.

Lanterns Episode 7 | “Great Arm, Kid”
Hal Jordan gets the spotlight in Episode 7 of Lanterns, “The Jordan Boys’ Legacy,” as we finally dive into his childhood, his dad, and the generational trauma he’s been “clinging” to. We break down what’s in the safe, why we don’t buy that Hal’s death is what it looks like, John’s trip to a fear-soaked yellow planet, and the theory that John is headed toward becoming a Yellow Lantern. Plus, we talk about the new Maggie-the-waitress Manhunter theory, Ch’p and Mogo’s “attendance” at Hal’s funeral, another OutKast song, and John and Hal’s “they’re playing our song” moment. And, of course, we ask the most important question: just how whelmed are we?

Lanterns Episode 6 | Hal Jordan's Dead… Probably… Maybe…
Hal Jordan is officially dead? In Episode 6 of Lanterns, “Bad Optics,” we break down the funeral, his emotional self-written eulogy, Carol Ferris's surprise introduction this late into the season, and the mysterious clues Hal may have left behind. Plus, we talk about Guy Gardner ripping off Batman, John’s newly found willpower, who might have killed Hal, why Sinestro suddenly escaped, and whether Noah could be connected to the whole mess. And, of course, we ask the most important question: just how whelmed are we?
