Guy Gardner. What a dick.
Sure he can fly, and unlike many other flying heroes has had the sense to dress warmly in anticipation of low temperatures as high altitude. However he had no way of telling who he was going to scare the bejiggens out of when he pulled that stunt: Could have been a guy with a heart condition could've been The Shat!
Well, if you want to be all technical and stuff, Green Lantern rings probably shield their users from the stresses of flying at high altitudes.
That was a great issue of JLA. Guy has a huge knock-down drag-out with Kilowog, and they do it just for FUN. This is how men would behave if they had super-powers in real life.
Are you going to showcase Guy's first date with Ice where he beats the crap out of the Black Hand? Because that would be Airwolf.
Love that Adam Hughes art, too! The JLI had some great people doing the art...Hughes, Maguire, Sears, McKone, and Templeton.
I have this issue, and itis hysterical. After the ridiculously over the top fight/carouse with Kilowog...which they fix with Guy's ring, but the charge is only temporary, so it all falls on top of poor Arisia when she stops by...Guy sees another airplane and goes out and does it AGAIN!
Seriously, when was the last time you saw a superhero actually having some fun? Do you think that Superman ever has the secret urge to do that? C'mon! Besides, Guy is really about ten mentally anyway.
This is why Guy Gardner is my favorite GL.
I love the one where Guy is standing in the foreground of some East European mudsplat of a country while a gigantic statue of liberty smashes the place up. I mean, that's just awesome.
Hmm...you haven't covered my favourite ever Guy Gardner moment yet though..
Poor Tim Conway. I bet he never flies that airline again.
I bet this happens all the time in the DC Universe.

Heh heh. What a prankster.

There you two go again, having fun and enjoying your comics. Now some tightass is going to get his panties in a twist and lecture us all about how stupid this issue was. Or at least tell us that somebody's going to lose an eye.
Well, I'm with you 100%. This is classic. And it is indeed exactly what guys would do. I know I would--I'd go fucking wild with a ring that can do damn near anything. Some breakage would be bound to occur.
I too would like to see Guy and Ice in the "Because I wanted to see if you were easy" scene.
And mikey, I can't wait to use "bejiggens" in a sentence. And I had no idea that Richard Donner directed the Shat in that episode.
IS that guy supposed to be a "one-off" of Shatner (a modern day version of that Twilight Zone episode)?
The toupee might be the tip-off.
~P~
P-TOR
Okay, now you have to do the scene from Green Lantern Corps: Recharge #1 where Guy moons Batman.
Okay. *now* I want to read more Guy Gardner comics. Because I've been waiting for a flying superhero to do that as long as I can remember.
Similar things have happened. Rogue, a much nicer person than Guy, left a lipstick-smooch-imprint on the window of Air Force One in an old issue of X-Men.
Ah, the days of JLI...when you didn't have clowns like Alex Ross, Geoff Johns, Dan DiDidio, etc. whining about how the "iconic" characters need to be front and center in everything. Wah, wah, wah.
Give it ten years or so. Those tools who worship the "Satellite Era" Justice League will have moved on, and the people who grew up reading JLI will be in control, and we'll see Guy, Beetle, Booster, J'onn, Fire, Ice, Rocket Red, Oberon, etc, back where they belong.
Looking at the first two comments here, I'll say this: Guy Gardner. What dick. But really--I'll admit that this is totally the kind of thing I would do if I could fly and wore the most powerful weapon in the universe on my finger.
You know what would have made this great scene perfect? Guy's tongue freezing to the airplane window, like Flick and the flagpole.
Theres...someoneonthewing!
Is it a...greenlantern or...some...kind...ofGremlin?
That panel earns him the nickname the Shat: make joke here
