Lanterns: Who Killed Hal Jordan?

We’re back on the case trying to figure out Hal’s murder right along with the rest of y’all. This go-round we’re focusing on the 7th episode of Lanterns, “The Jordan Boys’ Legacy”. We felt like there was so much going on under the surface that it needed a deep dive. Mental health took the wheel and hella lore got casually dropped on this week’s Lanterns. It feels like the show took a tone shift and is a whole different beast. Do we like the shift? Will there be any answers to all the (many) questions? What’s good with this unalived planet? Why are the Manhunters using a fear toxin? Why didn’t John use the poncho? Frantz tries to give a spoiler-free recap, Mike debuts his own Pop!, and Aisha’s mind gets blown by several on-air revelations. All this and more, get into the convo on this episode of 2Nerds and an Actor!00:00 — Welcome Back to Lanterns03:36 — John Stewart’s Cosmic Errand Run05:25 — Is This Still Lanterns?07:01 — Welcome to the Lindelof Question Factory10:31 — John Stewart Black Affect12:03 — The Loneliness of Being Gifted16:03 — Yes, Green Lantern Has Always Been About Race20:00 — Hologram Hal Has Entered the Chat24:00 — Everybody’s a Suspect31:00 — Fear Toxin From Another Planet36:14 — Superheroes, Trauma & the Real World44:58 — Nerdspiracy: What Is Sinestro Really Doing?
