Description Version 2


The close of the Sinestro Corps War in Green Lantern #25 introduced a future with seven Lantern Corps, each with a different philosophy based on the emotional color they channel. Above are the seven symbols as I recreated them, plus the ominous eighth corps in the background.

Green: The Color of Willpower, and by extension, Life
Yellow: The Color of Fear
Blue: The Color of Hope
Red: The Color of Anger
Violet: The Color of Love
Indigo: The Color of Compassion
Orange: The Color of Avarice

Black: The Color of Death

Green Lantern Rings are powered by Willpower, not life. Besides that, this looks pretty good.

Life, willpower, the Guardians have used both terms to describe their color as the center of the spectrum.

I apologize if I came off as a preachy comic nerd. Being the GL fan I am, I just had to make that comment.

That's fair to say. We've all been guilty of preaching our 'faith' at one point or another.

Which one is 'blue' and which one is 'indigo'?

Because I'd call those shades 'navy' and 'cyan' if I were the one talkin'

Wouldn't the indigo be more of a teal-ish color? LOL Don't mind me... I really don't even know what this whole lantern thing is!! XD

What-the-Gaff In reply to AbstractK-9 [2010-06-23 12:13:28 +0000 UTC]

No, see, I made a mistake with this piece. Indigo is actually a bluish purple, not teal. I made a revised version of this after I realized that, but people keep faving this one more. Go figure.

Yeah... Okay... LOL I don't exactly know what the "Green Lantern" thing is... So, please forgive me. XD

No, don't worry, it was MY mistake in the first place, is the point. I'm not taking it out on you ^_^

The Spectrum in terms of Green Lantern's emotional spectrum concept, or the visible spectrum in actual scientific terms?

Oh! So it's almost like a circle of emotions?

What-the-Gaff In reply to AbstractK-9 [2010-06-23 21:41:48 +0000 UTC]

That's the idea behind it. It goes like this:

Red=Rage
Orange=Greed
Yellow=Fear
Green=Willpower
Blue=Hope
Indigo=Compassion
Violet=Love

All this with black and white representing death and life, respectively.

It seems cute once you fully understand it. ^_^ My mom's fave color is red, and she's mad a lot. It matches the The Spectrum thing. My fave color is Blue and I always have a lot of hope in something. Same with my dad.

Hate to say it but that means you switched the colors. Properly Indigo is between Blue and Purple, a particularly dark blue as a result.

It'll be more obvious when the Compassion Corps is actually created. They wield staffs and they're energy looks more purpleish.

Are you referring to the Indigo Tribe?

Indeed, those are who I was referring to 3 years ago. (They were not revealed yet at that time)

I did notice that after the fact, that their color is more closely purple than blue. The problem is they're clashing a bit with the star sapphire in terms of color instead of blue lanterns.

Not real sure what you mean here, but I'd like to point out that the violet power battery and rings were forged out of the star sapphire gem.

What-the-Gaff In reply to dustinschaub [2008-03-24 13:38:44 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I know that! There's no need to point it out at all! This is about the INDIGO Lanterns. I misunderstood what that color was supposed to be when I did this piece.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. It still looks most excellent.
