I actually forgot that I pre-ordered the Omni. On Amazon, it says a release date of January, so that'll be nice.

I'll take a peek, and *if* there's a Legion appearance, a closer peek. Otherwise not going to bother. Not a chance I'll pick it up based on some tenuous, barely present link to a future story.

But what if there will be one panel with a clue as to Gold Lantern's amazing secret origin? wink

Surely those hints will be kept as part of a 10 year tease into DCs infinite spectrum crisis of final legends. Wouldn't want to waste something so utterly awesome.

I?m sure the 10-year build-up will be worth it!

Well, we do know the full book is slated for 2022, so probably January or February. I will not be picking it up.

Bad time to mention that Comet is going to be the key character in a year long tease into the new Gold Lantern featuring the Legion title?

Oooh and their including the Christmas story that was skipped in the last collection. That had some nice art in it and was just a nice story in general.

I was under control by my OWN Gold Lantern ring! I thought the Guardians of Oa gave it to me, but it turns out... oh wait I'll tell you next month, I've run out of time.

Noes! A new level of tease! My guess is that The Amber Butane Corps gave Ibby his replica Gold Lantern Ring. The why of it will no doubt make for a stupendous origin. But will it be as stunning unbelievable as Gold Lantern's?

Yet another way of making the Gold Lantern origin a little more unobtainable is to have the need to ship it in baggies for mature connoisseur of the varied colours of cosmic ectoplasm.
