The color yellow has been the ultimate "Green Lantern Kryptonite" for decades of comic books. But does the yellow weakness exist in the DC Animated Universe, or is DCAU GL OP?

PLEASE, you, and EVERYONE, if you haven't already, embrace the One True Only God YHWH Jehovah, Only One Jesus Christ His Only Begotten Son and Lord and Savior of our souls and the Only One Holy Spirit. God is good. God is love. Jesus is Lord. Jesus IS coming. Your soul depends on it! I have seen God act in my life. He saved my soul, changed my heart, changed my mind, helped people through me, took care of people in my life, people I hurt before I found God. God is the only reason I was able to reconcile with my dad before he died. God worked through Jesus Christ to save our souls. Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins. Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and that God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. Be baptized in The Holy Spirit, and if He wills, water as well. Repent of your sins, accept God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit into your heart, that Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ, that all who believe on Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Jesus Christ is The Way, The Truth and The Life. No one comes to the Father Jehovah God but through Him. Not long after I got saved I prayed to God for help understanding the Holy Bible, and that same day someone knocked on my door asking me if I wanted to understand the Bible. The Holy Bible says, "love thy enemy", "turn the other cheek", "If your enemy is hungry, feed him", "if he is thirsty, give him a drink", "pray for those who persecute you", "do not repay evil for evil". LORD willing, all humans may commit sin of almost every kind (gay, straight), and that's wrong, and all humans sin, as God tells us through the The Holy Bible, "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." The Holy Bible also says, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."

@Artista_Frustrado 28 дней назад

ok but if you think about it Parallax living in the central battery can justify the weakness to Yellow entirelly: - the Lantern rings are connected to the Users mind on a subconscious level, right? - so if Parallax who is the Yellow Light of fear is inhabiting the Central battery then it means every Lantern is subconsciously aware a parallax - the Green light of Willpower weakens when exposed to ANY Fear, not just the Yellow Light of Fear therefore Yellow works on lanterns because they ARE Subconciously afraid of yellow. Why? because Yellow represents the biggest fear a Lantern could ever have: the Fear of Fear Itself

For all the issues I have with Geoff Johns' writing, the retcon that the reason for the Green Lanterns' weakness to yellow was Parallax being trapped inside the Power Battery was very efficient and also helped redeem Hal Jordan in a way that made sense.

Possible that Parallax in the DCAU is just classified and most Lanterns, like the one in Batman Beyond's time period, were just told something like "The Impurity took millennia of work to remove" without having the nature of what the impurity was explained cause it wasn't important. It's just a little bit of trivia like "In those days we had to deal with X" that the older guys in the Corps joke about.

Head canon, maybe its a subconscious thing like it doesnt actually weakening him but more making him think of the fear thus subconsciously lowering his will power.

@ArcDragoon 29 дней назад

Because that is exactly how it works. You can overcome your fear, which allows intermittent resilience against yellow. Here, it would be more like yellow gas always worked because John Stewart just assumed that it would in his head, it was a weakness that he made up and the yellow impurity took hold of that. Other times, when he showed weakness against it, was because like the suitcase it was solid yellow and he was aware of it. When it did work against yellow, it must've been surprising for any Green Lantern, but if they tried to replicate it, they wouldn't know why it wouldn't work a second time. The avoidance of it is because at this point, they didn't know about Parallax and hence the exact way to combat it. You instinctively put up a shield regardless if you're weak against it, some times it worked, other times not, and you would never know why, but a 50-50 was better than just taking a hit without trying. Which is why John still avoided yellow beams or tried to throw green energy against yellow shields. A weakness does not have to be absolute.

There was a tie in coloring book for the justice league show. In the Dr. Destiny episode, they made GL’s nightmare that he was trapped in yellow.

25:05 It might be because it's the whole Justice Lords, not just him. He's merely part of a council of leaders, not the unilateral leader of the society, and they may feel that it's fine for a Green Lantern to be a governmental leader, and not have an issue with a power structure like the Lords, since it's not dissimilar to the Guardians themselves.

@ShockWithoutFear Месяц назад

I think it's also important to mention that the yellow impurity was officially taken away from the GL comics once Kyle took over with the last power ring made uniquely for him. Implying that the guardians had the ability to take away the impurity before the parrallax retcon. I think this had a play in how lax they could be with the weakness in the show and leaving it in as an homage makes a lot of sense. It's definitely there but can fit in the space where the Guardians can take it off once they trust that the lanterns won't turn on them like the manhunters turned on second 666/in dire situations

@Theycallmetomu Месяц назад

Giving the ring weakness to yellow is like taking an ability flaw on a tabletop RP character to get some extra feats. They removed the weakness at the cost of something else when they realized the weakness was too problematic. As for the QOTD, if I had a green lantern ring I would make ... well I'd start making simple shapes in order to feel out the capacity of the ring obviously. You know, kind of like a telekinetic stress ball. Then, since I associate green lanterns with psionics, and psionics with crystals, probably some crystals. But like, what would I WANT to make? I dunno, nothing the lantern rings make is permanent, and it's not like I'm fighting supervillains or anything. I'd probably just use the danged thing to fly.

@safebox36 Месяц назад

Worth mentioning that, while probably unintentional, the word that "parallax" derives from can also mean "to change" or "to exchange". Which kinda ties in with the idea that a parallax is a change of perspective (whether literal or figurative), and can be seen as relating to anxiety and fear being either a useful survival mechanism or a crux in that moment.

Maybe it's not a known weakness. Perhaps GL is only weak to yellow if he doubts his willpower. Something subconsciously makes him doubt himself when he sees yellow but he can overcome it by being especially determined. When facing Sinestro, GL is already esoecially deterimed to win so he has a built up defense against yellow. When he us hit with Jello-O, he isnt esoevially on guard so the yellow gets through as he doesnt deem it as a real threat. So, he is only weak to yellow when he doesnt think he will be weak to yellow or caught off guard.

Arguably, the guardian's 'dealing' with the yellow weakness might not have been them just snapping their fingers to remove it, it could have been a battle, even the expression and the way he says it, that they 'dealt with it', treats it like a problem, not an intentional flaw to limit the power of green lanterns.

In case anyone's wondering, the art on that Alan Scott part was substandard, because that was work by Mart Nodell, the guy who first drew Alan Scott back in the 40s. He also gave us the Pillsbury Dough Boy. The Alan Scott retcon was, IMHO, a bad idea. Not because I object to Yalan Gur - I like that part - but because of the Guardians being able to switch off the yellow weakness at any time. I sez: Yalan Gur found the Starheart on earth, used it to patch the yellow weakness, and the rest of the story proceeded in much the same fashion (including the Guardians making his ring weak to wood). In other words, the Guardians can introduce weaknesses, but they don't. The yellow weakness, on the other hand, was real.

Yeah I'm guessing from everything that it's there, to an extent, in some GLs, but it's not telegraphed for obvious reasons, and doesn't completely nullify the green energy, just works better against it (& maybe specifically yellow energy/gas, not really solid objects, unless it's jello). I like the idea that overcoming fear is in play too, and DCAU John hasn't really overcome it like his Justice Lord counterpart, but would be immune to the yellow impurity is he was, like Jessica becomes. Then at some point the Guardians are able to remove it completely. Hey maybe Kai Ro is weak to wood

The first construct I made with my ring was a gatlin gun, the second was a guillotine. And yes I was weak to yellow, but only when it came in the form of well fitted jogging pants/shorts with "JUICY" on the rear 😂😂😂

If i had a green lantern ring, i'd make a construct that allows me to scratch my back easily. Pretty useful, isn't it?

@ashleytuchin7693 29 дней назад

So, was John hooking up with the yellow-clad Hawkgirl the equivalent of Martian Manhaunter hooking up with Fire in Tom King's 'Human Target' series? Was it some sort of weird BDSM type thing for him? Furthermore, does that mean she started wearing even more yellow as a kind of 'f#$k you'?

I agree the Guardians seeing to it could have just been them spinning the events of Parallax. The first thing I would make with my green lantern ring would be a green scooter and use it to run errands, I am sick of paying for uber lime to get everywhere and a green construct scooter would look just similar enough to not draw notice.

@CatKingultra Месяц назад

I would make more green lantern rings. The Guardians won't be able to stop me if i pull up to oa with seven hundred rings and a cool green necklace.

@supreme84x 25 дней назад

Just because the bald green lantern says the guardians remove the yellow impurity, doesn't exclude that the yellow impurity was parallax. It just wasn't how Jordan who removed/freed parallax from the central battery. Could have been the guardians who put them in a different cell, or their attempts to stop his influence of instituting the purity caused him to get free, or any other number situations. The situation with parallax could also be a secret and so the average Green lantern doesn't know about it and is just told that the guardians removed.

@theclassicnerdyguy 28 дней назад

Now I'm just curious to how a DCAU Parallax story would play out. As for the QotD, I'd probably try making some decent headphones I could sleep in.

"You can't even make the color green without [yellow]!" If he were a paint man, sure. But we're talking light frequencies, mate.

With my green lantern ring I would make that trash can that fixes your back from the simpsons.

The first thing I'd make with a GL ring would probably be the batmobile. Just to show what hero's abilities (money) I really wanted.

@MildlyAggressiveOni Месяц назад

Honestly not sure what I'd make with a green lantern ring, but the ability to just fly away to wherever I desire would be pretty nice.

@emerald773sstudio2 Месяц назад

If I had a Green Lantern Ring, I would probably use a flyswatter as my main tool of choice. But, for the first thing I'd make, it would be a jet.

My answer: If I had a Green Lantern ring I would make an exoskeleton for I could walk when needed or reach things on a high shelf. That or just float everywhere.

Also, not to chew up comment space in the comment section (lol) but the fact that this video ended with a variation of the song I was hoping would play the entire video, made every minute so, sooo, SOOOOO worth it! You're a class act and delivered in full!😂👏🏾

Having the one GL get beat up by the Chinese was something I was not expecting. They were unhinged when writing these comics.

@chickadeestevenson5440 Месяц назад

I do wish that the other lantern cores were a thing in the DCAU. Since blue lanterns usually stop red from working.

@mattwo7 Месяц назад

3:58 I don't really get why this was when Alan Scott's original ring (he got a GL Corps ring at some point and his daughter obtained his ring's powers in her body, long story) already didn't work on wood. Even though it was powered by _magic fire,_ he uses an actual damned magic lantern, not a battery. Apparently it was later explained that the magic fire was tied to The Green (the speed force equivalent for all plant life and thus the source of all plant-related powers with characters like Poison Ivy, Floronic Man and Swamp Thing (whose comics were the source of the color name power sources like The Red for animals (which ironically includes Beast Boy) and The Grey for fungi which is not to be confused with The Rot aka The Black which is associated with death or the Black Light of Death which represents entropy and is apparently somehow not directly tied to The Rot) being conduits and/or avatars), but still a weird weakness.

@Artista_Frustrado 28 дней назад

(also not a US citizen but I wanna answer the QOTD anyway) The first construct I would make would be a cool suit, I have this idea for a trenchcoat & a Daft Punk-styled screen helmet. The second would be a set of tiny tools so I can work on electronics without breaking stuff

@yourconscious Месяц назад

It may not be the first thing I'd make, but if I were a lantern, I'd absolutely make use of feints. You think I'm hitting you with a construct from the right? No, that one isn't solid. The one behind you is

Gotta love this channel, delivering well made, well written, well narrated, well researched, entertaining content on a consistent basis. Genuinely one of the most underrated channels on RU-vid. If it wasn't for the fact that the dcau isn't very mainstream, this channel would be wayyy more popular and recognised for it's quality work, 100%.

@mattwo7 Месяц назад

27:45 A means of contacting the Blue Lantern Corps to ask if I can have one of theirs because I hate green and prefer blue. Course I'd probably not be great at wielding either (having willpower and instilling hope are not among my strong suits, I'd probably be most powerful as a green, red and violet hybrid lantern but I'd rather not have a red one because of the whole "replace blood with plasma" thing, unless having a violet and/or green one cancels that out anyway) and I'd need the green one to power up the blue one given how the blue ones work.

@brxtndog Месяц назад

If you have a green lantern ring the first thing you gotta do is explore space or the ocean or basically anywhere you cant normally go - so yeah fly into space is definitely what i would do

@maxordman4100 20 дней назад

Great retrospective on the weakness of green lantern! What an amazing tapestry that was woven here! On a certain level it does sound a little bit hoaky, but I have to admit that making green Lantern all powerful would be dangerous. I definitely appreciate all the jokes about Hawkgirl’s costume! Another entertaining video for sure! I’d use my green lantern ring to make a magic night cap to help me sleep better because I have been having trouble sleeping lately!

@MegaManDBZX 4 дня назад

This is why I’m glad, they got rid of that weakness in the 90s. Hell, even when it was somewhat brought up in GLTAS, it was due to a toxic mineral that acted as a psychotropic hallucinogen.

@TheOvervoid Месяц назад

My headcanon is that the Justice Lords defeated the Green Lantern, though I don't think it would have been through a head-on fight and more like a calculated plan where they hit the Guardians rather than the actual Lanterns

I would've really liked to see Sinestro's yellow core and Parallax. I very much prefer Yellow Lantern Sinestro, as opposed to Sinestro prior to the yellow lantern core. If it was about before or during the DCAU, I very much feel they'd definitely go with that Sinestro.
