Did this absolute hack seriously make Guy Gardner into a woman beater and then murder him? My lanternfu is never gonna live this down, is he

First off, it's been a while since that came out. Secondly, it's King so who cares? And third, it's an AU.

Scandals don't stick to DC heroes.
That only happens to Marvel characters.

It’s making the rounds on Twitter so I just found out. Besides it’s not like anyone keeps up with Tom King weekly

Ah that makes sense.

I don't read King's trash anymore but this looks like his handiwork. It reads like a shameless self-insert fantasy of him beholding the majesty of his BEAUTIFUL PERFECT QUEEN-GODDESS that fixes him just by being near him.

Sure it is user. Sure it is.

I can imagine Guy slapping a woman around when she gets a little uppity. Hal too to be fair.

Guy is safe.

>>Book came out with zero hype because DC realizes how much everyone fucking HATES Tom King

>>It's explicitly non-canon

>>They don't even hype it as a JLI book, making it go out as "The Human Target" even though if they actually gave a fuck about selling the book (and antagonizing JLI fans, which is a hobby for modern DC guys like DiDio and Johns) they've had done that purely to get hate buys from people

>>DC actually DOES care about Guy Gardner (he's one of the main leads in the upcoming Green Lantern TV show) and has recently put Guy front and center in Dark Crisis as Hal's second in command in the Green Lantern Corps

>>DC kept Tom from killing off Guy Gardner in Heroes In Crisis (he was supposed to be one of the people Wally West killed; Tom was told "no" on killing Guy off, tried to do it anyway by sneaking him into the artwork to overrule editorial, but got caught and the art changed at the last minute to remove the face of the GL; who became an unknown alien Green Lantern instead)

Isn't that basically an alternate timeline or whatever?

SO STRONG AND INDEPENDENT

Why do they keep letting him make comics when it's clear now even editorial has extreme distaste for him?

What a fucking pissbaby.

Hank actually got it pretty good in EMH.

i actually liked The Human Target

I believe you, but source on this?

Guy is in that perfect b tier zone that Tom king can’t touch, he’s not popular enough to generate buzz over king shitting on him but he’s liked by other writers and editors where any SERIOUS fucking will be promptly dealt with.

I still feel bad for the dozen or so adam strange fags

I still find it grimly hilarious Any Forums completely called the ending just by virtue of assuming King's goal was to write black man on white woman cuck porn.

You know, I always thought Kyle was meant to be the dead Lantern, but Guy actually makes more sense now that I think about it.

Yes, Human Target is out of continuity. Which is good because the comic is nothing but character association of everyone JLI-related.

He’s a glowie, his entire job was to undermine and belittle the idea of masculinity from the comforts of a shitty desk, it’s not surprising in the slightest that he did what he did

>third, it's an AU.
This is such a stupid fucking excuse to write a character like shit.

What did King do to Adam Strange?
