So, I just got my Green Lantern “Black Lantern” ring (Yeah, yeah, I went over to the dark sided in more way than one. Not only did I buy the first Dark Lantern story but I’m now blogging about it — you’ll have to forgive me, my comics guy is going to be at SDCC next week, so I’m going to have to go without my weekly fix for a week and next week Amazing Spider-Man #600 will be out!). 
I haven’t read the actual comic yet (as I said, I’m storing up for next week), but I did read the Free Comic Book Day giveaway, and I’ve been wearing the very cool ring. (Unavoidable aside, the world of Green Lantern is apparently more like a Dr. Suess book these days what with all the colors of Lantern Corps there are out there.)
Still I have only now just learned that I apparently can’t get the fool-thing to work unless I’m dead.
So I have to ask, since my comicbook career is (apparently) dead, shouldn’t that count?
