Description Now I can hear it now from some people who are actually familiar with 's Bomango series, and actually I wouldn't be surprised if he as well thought this was a strange choice (considering if he even is remotely familiar with the Green Lantern Mythos)

So for those who don't know already let me give a brief background, in the Green Lantern mythology, the Sinestro Corps Lanterns is of course a Lantern Corps created by the Renegade (former) Green Lantern Sinestro, a red guy with a Snide Whiplash mustache, who after being captured by the Guardians of the Universe, was banished to the planet Qward, who while banished on Qward, discovered the Yellow Lantern Battery of Fear, and thus Created Qwardian power rings which fed off of it's power source and thus recruited the most fearsome people in the universe to create the Sinestro Corps. Needless to say Sinestro is not a nice guy and he and his Corps are one of the main antagonists of the Green Lantern comics.

So with that out of the way, I still have to answer one obvious question...why the Sinestro Corps? Good question, in fact I felt a little conflicted as well after thinking really long and hard about it, because Didi isn't a mean-spirited or fearful person, in fact she's one of the most downright Nicest and most bubbly characters I could think of.

She does have power (albeit her full power capabilites aren't exactly known), cuz anyone who has the ability to stop a punch from Gogo, she must have some strength behind that unassuming exterior, and while we are on the subject, if she was to be a lantern of any group it most likely would be the: Blue Lantern corps of Hope, the Indigo Tribe of Compassion, possibly the Star Sapphires of Love, and of Course, the Green Lantern Corps of Will.

So again, why the Sinestro Corps? Well my line of thinking goes like this...it's interesting. I could've done the most obvious thing and made her a Green Lantern, cause it makes sense, but to me, it's a very easy way of thinking, as a person who likes to think up stories, I like to pick the road less known, do the less obvious, but also have it make sense.

Take Gogo for example when I made this joodan-kun.deviantart.com/art/… when you think of Gogo's character you think of, Strong, funny, dumb (sorry but it's true), and also not willing to take anyone's crap. But when you really see who she is, she may be a good hearted person, but at times, the chinks in the armor show through, and can easily be pushed over the edge, if you know how to push the right buttons, hence why I thought the Red Lantern Corps was a fitting choice, as she can get pretty damn angry, almost uncontrollably angry. Atrocitus would be proud.

But Didi...she's as scary as a homicidal balloon...needless to say, not really Fear material, which is what the Sinestro Corps power revolves around.

However if I did have to find a way around that, I would probably go the route of Hal Jordan (or Kyle Rayner or The Flash: Barry Allen) and just say Parallax made her an...unwilling member as it will...except less homicidal, geez Hal Jordan killed a lot a people. (oh by the way, Parallax is the living entity of fear...otherwise known as the giant yellow space bug that possessed Hal and made him go nuts, and is also the reason, War of The Green Lanterns happened.)

anyway, sorry for that LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG explanation, I just felt it was necessary. Any way, as per the last one this is the second Art gift for of three as promised, the last one going to be Andy, and just guess who he'll be...easiest guess in the world.

Also the background image was done by

Anyway, onward torwards the Art Requests.

I've seen what the blue light of hope is capable of in the right hands, so I would say the color blue would suit Andy.

True. Blue would be a good color for him, but I'm going with a different color.

Β  ahhhhhh-some! Didi fanart with BOSS lighting effects! "Scary as a homicidal balloon" indeed, but anything that suggests a hint of menace to Didi is fun to ponder. A ruthless Didi would be a terrifying force

thanks so much for these, they is brilliant for to see!

Your Welcome.


Definitely the concept of Didi becoming a force to be reckon with is an interesting one. I've always sorta liked the "Good guy becoming the bad guy" concept in stories...of course there is definitely a 50/50 chance the idea may fall flat on it's ass if the writer writes it very incompetently giving a more ham-fisted reason for why they committed such a heel-turn, or starting off with a great reason with tons of potential, only to turn the character into blubbering/Unsympathetic character...hell good example of the latter, Superboy Prime!


The planet he lived on, everyone he knew and loved, was blown up, and in his sadness and despair, he grew angry, and spiraled out of control, which in theory COULD have worked, but instead of turning him into a Dark/Tragic version of Superman, they just turn him into a Whiny, un-sympathetic, asshole who just kills people for no damn reason..."I'll KILL YOU TO DEATH!"....good lord....WOW that was a tangent...sorry.


Anyway, glad you like this, any way, Andy's up next.

Always thought of myself as a candidate for red lantern. Or indego. Or both. I'm easy. I just want a ring.

I would like to go for red, mainly cuz I like the color, but considering the risk that the Red rings cause your heart to stop, and if you decide to A. Take of your ring or if you B. stop being angry, you will just drop dead unless you have help from a Blue Lantern to take the ring off without killing you, having Both a Blue and Star Sapphire reverse the effects and jumpstart your heart again, or Β in a rare instance, Β a White Lantern to help bring you back to life...


So yeah, I'd probably end up Blue Lantern Corps...I'm a hopeful guy.

You're more educated than I am! I wouldn't worry about being angry though. That's my secret. I'm ALWAYS angry!

I have a nice indego ring. Not one of those cheap plasstic ones either.

It's kinda funny, cause I've only been reading Green Lantern comics for only 2 months...well technically Blackest Night, War of the Green Lanterns, and a lot of research on the DC Wiki, but yeah, I like the Mythology a lot, it's pretty good stuff.


Been contemplating getting A Red, Green, and Blue ring myself.

The ones I ordered are actual metal. They look great, a little pricier but great. I want to get the white and black rings as well. I need to get one of those wooden model hands and put a ring on each finger. Of course... the red ring goes on the middle finger.
