David and Jean continue their episode-to-episode coverage of HBO's Lanterns with a tightly plotted sixth episode. The fresh takes cover the show's continued strength with character work, particularly the strained dynamic between John Stewart Jr. and his brothers, and a growing unease around Sheriff Kerry and Noah that has Jean on high alert. They also praise the show's grounded, realistic dialogue as a through-line even as the mythology around the Corps and Oa expands. From there, David and Jean move into a full scene by scene breakdown covering the autopsy, the trip to the Fortress of Solitude, and a very large vault the team can't yet open, before wrapping up the episode.
We did some work with Connor M and got his Green Lantern reading list put together on a shared document that everyone can take a look at!
