Green Lanterntakes the glare in a new variant cover forDark Nights : Death Metal # 4.But as breathtaking as the new cover graphics may be , it seems as though it’smostimportant which Green Lantern is gracing this alternate cover .
The Green Lantern Corpshas been noticeably missing fromDeath Metalthus far , and it seems as though there ’s a turgid secret at shimmer as to why . It might have to do with Green Lantern John Stewart , who ’s the specific guinea pig of this picky cover prowess , and he ’s never take care better .

When the Multiverse was refashion by Perpetua and the Batman Who Laughs , the Green Lanterns were nowhere to be find , despite several other sub having their part and seat in the new Dark Multiverse ( though Black Lanterns sure enough do ) . It ’s probable that they ’ve been saved byDeath Metalwriters Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo for a large reveal , though if persist to be see if that reveal will be good or big for the hero that remain , trying to stand theBatman Who Laughsand his legions of Dark Batmen . Regardless , it could be very tell that John Stewart is the Green Lantern boast on thenewly break cover artfrom artist Stanley Lau .
The ground why it ’s important that John Stewart is on this variant cover is because of Wonder Woman ’s remembering of how the world terminate beforeDeath MetalinJustice League # 39.InDeath Metal # 1 , Diana claims to remember the Justice League heading into a portal created by the Quintessence , pay them one more shot to lay off Perpetua . However , in her recollection , Wonder Woman seems to be remembering Hal Jordan as the Green Lantern that was with them at the sentence , but this is fictive . InJustice League # 39,readers will remember that it was John Stewart who was the one to really go through the portal with the League . Why is there a discrepancy in Diana ’s retention ?
It ’s potential that this an intentional play being made for a deep plan in the kit and caboodle regarding the Green Lanterns . Perhaps someone has tampered with Diana ’s storage , specifically want her to forget John Stewart and his affair . It could even be Perpetua or the Batman Who Laughs , thought the reason and motive for why stay on to be witness . Of of course , John and Halhave their different strengths and weakness , but they ’re both still Green Lanterns . Why would it matter which Lantern is remembered going through the portal vein ?
There by all odds seems to be aGreen Lanternmystery afoot , and hopefully Snyder and Capullo will be answering it shortly . With this John Stewart variant cover , the reply could come shortly whenDeath Metal # 4releases October 13th . It could just simply be a cool variant , but it could also be teasing that John Stewart will have his own function to play inDark night : Death Metal , and it just has yet to be revealed .
