Welcome back, Nerdy Nation! Today’s episode is a true treat — DatNerdADC is joined once again by the legendary Uncle Black for a massive, detailed deep dive into the Green Lantern Corps and what their upcoming HBO Max series means for James Gunn’s new DCU.

Uncle Black brings the encyclopedia of Green Lantern knowledge you need — from Hal Jordan’s mentorship of John Stewart to the importance of the Guardians, OA, and the Yellow Lanterns. We also explore who the real big bad of the DCU might be (Vandal Savage, anyone?), plus how Green Lantern could connect to the Justice League and the wider cosmic universe Gunn is building.

You’ll also hear some bonus talk on character casting, the essential need for practical storytelling (not just CGI!), and why setting this series on Earth could actually be the smartest move yet.
