He's just a tougher character to pitch to the general public than some of his DC Comics brethren. Tell people they'll believe a man can fly, and they figure out Superman quickly. Show them a billionaire dressed like a bat and little more need be said. But a guy who gets drafted into a space army to wield a super-powered green ring in order to protect the universe from evil? That's a little tougher. So here are five things to prime you for the emerald extravaganza that's just on the horizon...
1. The Character Is Older Than Your Grandpa
2. The Green Lantern Corps Support Diversity in the Workplace
3. It's Not a Joke
4. No Rubber Nipples Here
5. It Could All Go Bad
