Does a Downsized Green Lantern Universe Mean One of Their Own Will Die?

According to an upcoming DC solicit, a Green Lantern will be murdered.

Things are getting a big shake-up in a post-Convergence world. We've already seen both Superman and Wonder Woman getting drastic changes to their appearances, but one of the things that seemed to slip under the radar was the possible death of a Green Lantern. In one of the solicits announced by DC today via ComicBook.com, they flatout say one of the Green Lanterns will be murdered.

Here's where the spoilers come in, so you best stop reading now if you want to stay surprised. The solicit for OMEGA MEN #1 reads as follows:

The Omega Men are back in an all-new series! They’ve murdered White Lantern Kyle Rayner and now, the universe wants them to pay! Who are these intergalactic criminals – and is there more to their actions than meets the eye?

Death isn't really a new thing for Kyle Rayner. He went into the Source Wall and "died," only to keep the fact he came out perfectly fine a secret after Lights Out. Is this death going to be for real or just another ruse?

With the way this "slipped" out in a solicit makes some people believe that it's not for real, especially since OMEGA MEN takes place after the murder, and said murder hasn't even happened yet. We'll have to wait and see what happens when OMEGA MEN #1 hits stores on June 3.

Do you think Rayner will actually die or is he faking his death once again?
