Hal as Yellow Lantern
Friday, August 28, 2009
Here's the third palette idea I've had for our Hal Jordan character to commemorate the Blackest Night crossover. I can't find a comic scan of this look, other than the old Silver Age-style Bizarro Hal, who was also called Yellow Lantern. I don't recall it happening during the Sinestro Corps War crossover last year, but maybe it did and I just can't remember. But the fact that it's one of the five action figure variants DC is selling this summer gives me a clue that maybe it's coming up as part of Blackest Night.
Anyway, as with the red palette and orange palette, Yellow Lantern Hal will have several changes beyond the outfit and construct colors:
- Custom intro and win/lose poses
- Replace the Buzzsaw special with (something else)
- Replace the Knockout hyper with one based on Parallax (the fear entity, not Evil Hal)
Next up, blue!

@Anon: you've read my mind... wait till you see next week's update. ;)
He's never worn a full blue one either, his costume when he had a blue ring was half-blue, half-green.
Long story short, the action figure five-pack is lying to us all, lol.
@Another Anon: thanks for the reminder about SCW, I didn't have the books to refer back to when I posted. As for the half-blue/half-green thing, yeah, wait until you see how I'm doing the blue palette, I'm trying to stay faithful to the comics; think you'll be pleased.
When will be the skins ready to download? I can't find them, even in the Dragon. Or will you release them all together when finished?
Good job!
@Shadoku: ... and that release isn't gonna happen before you start school, sorry. I'm thinking maybe by the end of September, if all goes well.
@Anon: thanks; multi-mode characters are fun to code, and hopefully he'll be fun to play too.
