Wait, what?

I should know better than to look at this sort of thing, but curiousity compelled me to look at DC’s look at the spectrum of lanterns.

Immediate thoughts:

  • “Willpower” is an emotion?
  • There is probably something to be said about the fact that the Pink Lanterns – the Lanterns of Love – are exclusively women. Or that DC apparently had to deviate from their template and change the name entirely to “Star Sapphires”.
  • “Love” and “Compassion” are pretty close. You could probably make a case for “Hope”, too.
  • I’m possibly repeating myself, but: “Death” is an emotion?

I understand that DC is trying for a theme here, but they really could have put a bit more thought into it.
