for comic book fans, and, uh, not comic book fans

Let's talk comics. In the past couple years, DC has expanded on the whole mythology behind the Green Lantern. Long story short, in addition to Green Lanterns, there are now Yellow Lanterns, Red Lanterns, down the whole spectrum. Whereas the Green Lanterns exemplify the strength of their will, the other colors have other sources and symbolism (Red Lanterns are driven by rage and anger, Yellow Lanterns are powered by fear, etc.) I think it's pretty keen, but I was wonder what other people thought, both those who follow comics in general and those who only have a passing knowledge of Green Lantern.
