Man I can't see through this. Is Sinestro going to turn evil or what? He looks like a reformed red thing guy. What's with his agenda to control everything because it will be better? Is it one of those that doesn't worry if the little guy get's hurt?
I like how he looked up at the sky and brought up something contradictory. The other guy says, "I don't think you've changed."
This isn't very interesting. This comic is boring. With this kind of story telling would it matter if he stayed good or turned evil? Where's it feel like it's leading? Nowheres. That's what kind of storytelling this sounds like.
Is there something to sweeten the pot other then a committee and ring vs. the hero of the book? 50/50 right? Then a guy who was really great. Then really misguided. Now he has a little feeling of goodness so he might change. How much goodness? Eh, about enough to make this a toss up.
What repercussions can come from the different decisions he could make? Well he's wrestling with such deep things. An urge to control everything and an urge to talk to the hero a little bit. So I guess if he goes back to wrong he will be a force to be reckoned with and if he stays strong and good, him and the hero fight some other villains. Which will be better at it? Let's just say one of them will be a little better then the other. Or they'll run even kinda one upping each other.
This is really see through. You need to paint a picture of his upside and a picture of his downside. This isn't a rough draft of a story.
If you think there is a lot to discuss though we can hear more about this. I just think there's an easy way to see this character is going vill-o with a capital O. So, vill-O.
Sorry about it but that's my opinion on this one.
By the way, quick poll. Who hates it when second rate villains or stale villains get recharged by there hate of something? Like there "frustration" kicks in and it makes them more dangerous then ever. What kind of adult is afraid of "frustration". Isn't that tough to deal with at our jobs? Sinestro says, "So you can relate to why I'm about to do this?"
We say, "No that's weird."
He says, "The unexpectedness makes it harder to understand my 'frustration'! And dare I say it? Makes it more scary, intimidating, and dangerous..."
Which is what it sounds like when frustration causes a relapse into villainy. I know medically all perceived bad things lead back to something like a mental inability to comprehend or something or frustrated thoughts and experiences, but it's a comic book. The villain sounds ridiculous. Shouldn't he be driven by something nuts sounding? Like an urge to see everyone dressed in there clothing? Enough money to own every toy shop in the world? No one ever solves why those things drive them. They just say lame things like "Well he's the toymaster so that's why he does that." They can't handle the skilz of it. It cut's right through em.
Frustration though. How can I understand that? Oh wait, I can see his perspective just fine. It doesn't make sense. Also I'm thinking of human psychology and Sinestro. Thanks DC.
Okay, tell me why Sinestro is bad or why I should think he'll be good. Make it sound exactly like your answering those questions too and nothing else. I'm only on the boards to do something interesting, Let's hear everyones best answer. Skip anything just plain interesting.
