JSA Classified #13 Question

[scratchie]

OK, call me dense, but where did Alan's green lantern come from?

[Lightbend]

Which one?

Alan's Lantern isn't the same as the Corps-it's the Starheart, the collection of all the wild magick of the universe, gathered by the Guardians eons ago and set adrift.

Now, as for why Alan has the Lantern now, when Mordru tore the Starheart from Alan during Princes of Darkness, when it returned to him it became the ring on Alan's finger-why he's called Green Lantern now, instead of Sentinel.

[scratchie]

Sorry, I should have been more specific. At the beginning of this issue, Vandal Savage has Alan tied up on an operating table, and Alan's lantern appears(?) on the floor underneath his head. I couldn't see anything in this or the previous issue to indicate where it came from.

That one has me puzzed too.
Also, in what time period does this take place?
Checkmate is around ( current time) but Wesley Dodd Sandman is too (in a way has to be pre-Zero Hour) and the JSA is disbanded ( the 1950's). Also, an Austin Powers reference.

[K'Nort]

The clone was imitating Dodd. And the JSA may have disbanded again over the past year, since this does seem to be set OYL.

It could be set either immediately before (since the JSA hadn't met in a while) or immediately after (since the book is ending, and the reboot probably isn't immediate in DCU time) the current JSA arc. Either way, it's OYL.

Thanks K'Nort,

I realize Sandman was a clone, and GL said his 'story didn't smell right', but I keep wondering why GL didn't immediately say or think " but Wesley's dead!". So is it a continuity glitch or something we have yet to discover about the JDS OYL?:confused:

I'm at work so I can't look, but didn't the clone say something proactively about faking his death?

Alan Scott is a golden age hero, and it was a very golden age thing to do, to go into a situation suspecting that it's a trap, figuring that he will somehow win anyway.
