Lots of talk of the Green Lantern Corps what with the pics of various GL's, but other Corps will be in the series as episodes arrive (2nd film starts filming this summer) so here's a primer based on the various ring colors, their controlling emotions/forces & oaths. Should give a head start -

? Green Lantern Corps (green ring - willpower)

In brightest day, in blackest night,

No evil shall escape my sight.

Let those who worship evil's might

Beware my power--Green Lantern's light

- Green Lantern Alpha Corps (Internal Affairs)

In days of peace, in nights of war,

Obey the laws forever more.

Misconduct must be answered for,

Swear us the chosen--the Alpha Corps

? Star Sapphire Corps (violet ring - love)

For hearts long lost and full of fright,

For those alone in Blackest Night.

Accept our ring and join our fight,

Love conquers all with violet light

? Sinestro Corps (yellow ring - fear)?

[yellow is also kry to the villain of the movie: Paallax]

[also note that Sinestro is a Green Lantern that goes off the reservation sometime after Hal Jordan joins the Corps]

In blackest day, in brightest night,

Beware your fears made into light

Let those who try to stop what's right,

Burn like my power*... Sinestro's might!

["my power" becomes "his power" when recited by other members of the Sinestro Corps]

? Black Lantern Corps (black ring - death)

The Blackest Night falls from the skies,

The darkness grows as all light dies.

We crave your hearts and your demise,

By my black hand, the dead shall rise

White Lantern Corps (white ring - life)

The Entity bonds with several characters in an ongoing story arc : Brightest Day?

? Red Lantern Corps (red ring - hate)

With blood and rage of crimson red,

Ripped from a corpse so freshly dead,

Together with our hellish hate,

We'll burn you all--that is your fate

? Agent Orange (orange ring - avarice)

AKA?Larfleeze. In the Blackest Night story arc his ring splits, and the 2nd ring selects Lex Luthor as its host.

Oath unconfirmed in canon, but hintrd at "MINE!

? Blue Lantern Corps (blue ring -hope)

In fearful day, in raging night,

With strong hearts full, our souls ignite.

When all seems lost in the War of Light,

Look to the stars, for hope burns bright

? Indigo Tribe (indigo ring - compassion)

Tor lorek san, bor nakka mur,

Natromo faan tornek wot ur.

Ter Lantern ker lo Abin Sur,

Taan lek lek nok--Formorrow Sur

[within the Indigo oath is the name of Abin Sur - Hal Jordan's predecessor. Indigo-1, their leader, describes him as being her "savior"]

MTV caught up with Blake Lively (who stars as Hal Jordan's love interest Carol Ferris in the upcoming Green Lantern) at a recent press event. Lively had some interesting things to say about her possible future, if there are indeed sequels to the Green Lantern.
"There are lots of winks toward the audience, you know, if people like this movie then we will do more and, you know, my character Carol Ferris turns into a villain that challenges and fights Hal Jordan... with some CRAZY costumes. I mean costumes like you guys will have in the cage today."

Directed by Martin Cambell Green Lantern stars Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan aka Green Lantern, Blake Lively as Carol Ferris, Peter Sarsgaard as Hector Hammond and Mark Strong as Sinestro is slated for release here in the state on June 17th.

    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
    • Hello, The Media Creation Tool is still at v10.0.26100.7019 from October 2025. Just looks like the backend has been updated. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.
    • That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.
