Lanterns Episode 8 Review
2026/10/06
We have reached the end and John returns to chat with Derek all about Lanterns Episode 8 Dirt and Stars in our spoiler filled podcast on the finale.
Lanterns Episode 8 Dirt and Stars SynopsisEpisode Written by: Chris Mundy, Tom King and Damon Lindeloff
Episode Directed By: Alik Sakharov
In 2016, in the aftermath of the destruction of Rushville, Kerry Kane rushes to make sure Hal Jordan is safe in the debris of the motel. Ten years later, in 2026 Kerry is waiting for Hal as he is released from prison, and despite the town’s hostility, the two begin a relationship.
Hal gradually rebuilds his life and tries to make amends for the destruction he caused, but his fragile second chance is shattered when his home is firebombed. Noah, Kerry’s son, secretly saves Hal using his extraordinary abilities.
Meanwhile, back in the alien world, John Stewart discovers the truth about Noah from Sinestro, that Noah is a Manhunter, created through Zoe’s experiments and struggling against his own programming.
Sinestro reveals that Noah freed him from captivity and commissioned him to create a powerful Lantern fuelled by fear. John takes the Lantern but is warned that using it could have consequences.
When John confronts Noah, the teenager admits that he killed Hal, apparently to prevent him from revealing his secret to his mum, Kerry. Noah then reveals the terrifying conflict inside him: part of him wants a normal human life, while his Manhunter programming urges him towards power and destruction. Terrified of what he might become, Noah removes John’s ring and asks him to kill him after his final game as Quarterback for his team, the Pioneers.
At the football match, John watches the game with Kerry, where finally the real truth is revealed. Hal, after being saved by Noah, understood his true identity and urged Kerry to flee with her son. Terrified of losing Noah and believing Hal would expose him, Kerry shoots Hal in the head. John chooses not to turn Kerry in, believing Hal would have wanted Noah protected.
With Noah choosing to continue his normal life, John makes his own decision. He summons Guy Gardner and declares that he will protect Earth independently of the Guardians and the Green Lantern Corps. He says to Guy “You take the stars, I’ll take the dirt.” After one final conversation with Hal’s holographic imprint, John embraces the fear he has spent fighting and creates his own Lantern oath. He returns to his family, charges his ring and finally takes flight and becoming Earth’s Green Lantern on his own terms.

Lanterns Episode 7 Review
2026/09/30
Chris joins Derek this week to chat all about the penultimate episode of Lanterns Episode 7 The Jordan Boys' Legacy an intimate and galaxy spanning episode that we discuss in full spoiler filled detail.
Lanterns Episode 7 The Jordan Boys' Legacy SynopsisEpisode Written by: Tom King and Damon Lindeloff
Episode Directed By: Alik Sakharov
In 1975, a young Hal Jordan is punished by his baseball coach for not being a team player. This sets up the habit of a lifetime as Hal won't give up the game ball to the kid chosen to replace him. His father, Martin, is proud of Hal and gives him a key to a "family fail-safe" shortly before he died in a plane crash.
In 2026, the Hal-o-gram refuses to cooperate with John Stewart to help solve the suspected murder of Hal Jordan and forces him to meet with Sheriff Kerry Kane to verify his claims.
Afterwards, the Hal-o-gram suspects foul play from Kerry and insists John check out Hal's storage without her.
Upon opening Hal's vault, they find a portal that leads to another planet, which John recognises as Antaan's home world.
They travel toward an island in the middle of a lake, but John experiences a hallucination created by remnants of a fear-inducing gas within the rain clouds. As visions of his father and his younger self accuse him of being afraid, John points a gun at his own head.
The Hal-o-gram saves John by pushing him into the water. He tells John the story about Hal Jordan's family fail-safe and that both his father and grandfather took their own lives. This is Hal's family legacy, leading John to suspect Hal may have killed himself.
Arriving at the island, John and the Hal-o-gram enter a structure at the centre and overpower Sinestro who tries to attack them to escape the planet.

Lanterns Episode 6 Review
2026/09/23
A bit of a change of pace for Lanterns Episode 6 "Bad Optics" as the show returns to the big mystery in 2026. We discuss it all and the huge cameo in full spoiler filled detail.
Lanterns Episode 6 “Bad Optics” SynopsisEpisode Written by: Justin Britt-Gibson and Damon Lindeloff
Episode Directed By: Stephen Williams
In 2026, John Stewart has become an architect and works with his brother Marcus. His mother tells him that the other former Green Lantern Hal Jordan, who has been living in Rushville to make amends for the 2016 incident, wants to apologise to him.
John meets Hal at a café, but they fail to reconcile, and John breaks his nose after Hal goads him about being too afraid to take the ring.
After returning home, John learns from Sheriff Kerry Kane, who began a relationship with Hal, that Hal has been murdered.
John uses a beacon set up by Guy Gardner to summon him to Rushville, where he is met with hostility from Billy Macon Jnr. and the townspeople. A fight breaks out, forcing Kerry to arrest John.
The next day, Guy visits John, who asks him to retrieve Hal's suit and ring for his funeral. Guy also reveals that Sinestro has escaped from prison.
After leaving the station, John encounters Maggie, a waitress from the café, who demands compensation for the damage he caused her family in 2016 or she will tell Kerry that he was the one who broke Hal's nose. After Hal's funeral, John digs up his grave, takes his ring, and with a small top up of power, summons the "Hal-o-gram".

Lanterns Episode 5 Review
2026/09/16
For an explosive episode we have Chris back to join Derek and John to discuss Lanterns Episode 5 "Lights Out" in full spoiler filled detail.
Lanterns Episode 5 “Lights Out” SynopsisEpisode Written by: Justin Britt-Gibson
Episode Directed By: Geeta Vasant Patel
Kerry Kane arrived in Rushville in 2007 chased by criminals from Gotham looking to kill her for father's crimes. Faced with an impossible situation, she is saved by Zoe who steps in to snap neck take a pinky and make a deal that some day Kerry will have to stand up and defend Zoe in a similar way.
Back in 2016, John Stewart is unable to get out of his rental car that Hal Jordan crashed into a pole. Zoe finds John but as the car explodes she lets him burn up inside. In hospital, Zoe uses her technology to repair John's burnt skin and makes a similar deal with him, as she did with Kerry, that in return for her help she will need his protection.
Meanwhile Hal meets with Antaan and his group. He tells them William Macon is the Manhunter they are searching for, while he goes after the real Manhunter, Zoe. Antaan's aliens destroy the Macon compound and Antaan faces off with Macon testing him with his alien language and their previous relationship to see if he is actually the Manhunter. Eventually, his resignation of being captured betrays Macon and Antaan removes his heart to confirm he's just a regular human and not his former partner Zoe. He manages to track her down and goes into self destruct mode but Hal uses his lantern ring to contain Antaan's explosive power killing him.
After recovering from his burns, John gets the drop on Hal at his hotel. The two fight until Hal is beaten and broken, but the motel is destroyed by the satellite lasers. Hal protects them both with the ring but John escapes from the rubble only to leave Hal as bait to draw out Zoe and takes her out with a sniper shot to the head.
John takes the crystalline heart of the Manhunter, the lantern and Hal's Green Lantern ring to the Guardian Lianna. She expects him to take over Hal's role but John tells her that it just made him feel empty and leaves them all behind.
