LANTERNS Episode 5, “Lights Out,” absolutely goes for it. Everything is exploding—loyalties, secrets, rental cars, John Stewart’s increasingly mysterious British accent—and somehow Hal and John STILL haven’t figured out that Green Lantern rings need to be charged.
In this spoiler-filled review, I’m talking about John’s horrific injuries, Zoe the Manhunter’s surprising role in saving him, the chaos that erupts when Zoe attacks the town, John’s massive decision about the ring, and why this episode feels less like traditional superhero television and more like a gloomy, inevitable tragedy.
And yes… by turning down that ring, John Stewart may have personally condemned the Justice League to dealing with Guy Gardner.
Thanks, John.
The craziest part? This is only Episode 5. “Lights Out” honestly feels big enough to be a season finale, and if Lanterns is already operating at this level, I cannot wait to see what the hell happens next.
What did you think of “Lights Out”? Was this the best episode of Lanterns so far? Let me know in the comments!
