Summary
Bravo We’re Black x I Ken Not returns to the DCU to break down Lanterns Episode 4! Kaya and Kendrick get into the growing tension between Hal Jordan and John Stewart, Sinestro’s warning, John potentially becoming the new Green Lantern, Hal secretly submitting bad progress reports about him, the Rushville mystery and the episode’s Manhunter reveal. We also discuss why Hal may be more afraid of being replaced than he wants to admit, why Aaron Pierre and Kyle Chandler are such a strong pairing, and how Lanterns continues to feel more like True Detective and a buddy-cop mystery than a traditional superhero series. Plus: Black moms, relationship reconnaissance, Green Lantern oaths, Xbox revenge, “Granny Hot Pants,” and the usual Bravo We’re Black x I Ken Not chaos.Where does Episode 4 rank for you so far—and are you Team Hal or Team John?
