I've always been a fan of Green Lantern, going back to Kyle Rayner, who was slinging the ring in my childhood. I was only vaguely aware of the old stories with Hal Jordan, and the events that led to Kyle Rayner as the one true Green Lantern. But, as everyone knows, Hal Jordan came roaring back under the watchful prowess of uber-writer Geoff Johns. (Green Lantern: Rebirth) And now Hal Jordan is once again firmly seated as the greatest of Green Lanterns. And because of the rebirth, people like me who weren't aware of the full scale of the story and it's past, now know all of that information. And it just makes me part of the new generation of Green Lantern fans.
I like to buy statues of the heroes and heroines that I love, and place them in front of their respective comics and graphic novels on my shelves. A VERY unique and satisfying way to display your collection by the way. To those ends, I just had to get this statue, and a few others besides, to go on my Green Lantern shelf. And let me tell you, the picture does not do the product 'Justice'. It is a GORGEOUS sculpt, with a phenomenal paint job. Bright, vibrant green paint really brings the majesty and power of this figure to life. If you're a fan of Green Lantern, or even just the DC statues and mini-busts, then this one is fantastic. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Thanks for your time folks.
Sincerely, R.A. McDowell
