Here’s our episode on the Lanterns finale, a series that ended up carrying more weight with all of us than I think we realized it would. Hope you enjoy our take on it.

And huge thanks to all of you for following along with us! We really appreciate you guys. If there’s a season 2, we’ll be back, and we’ll probably jump on and talk about Man of Tomorrow — the upcoming Superman movie featuring the next appearance of John Stewart — when it comes out next July.

On brightest screen, in blackest mic

No theory shall escape our sight

With thoughtful takes and deep insight

Beware our podcast, we're Casting Light!

They just keep getting better and better. Such a hard-hitting, engaging episode this week, with perspective on Hal’s past and his relationship with his father, John reckoning with a more compassionate version of Hal, and their journey to a surreal other world. We can’t wait to see how this wraps up.

Yet another change of pace this week, with this complicated, somber, surprisingly funny, intriguing, and moving episode, as we see how John has changed in the 10 years since turning down the Green Lantern ring — and how he deals with the mysterious death of his former mentor/antagonist.
