Unless you’ve been living in a cave (and a cave with high-speed internet access is rare these days) you’ve noticed there’s a green light in the air. It’s probably coming from a green light source of some kind. What could it be?

Okay, I’m going to flip over all the cards. It’s the Green Lantern’s light, of course. Shining like a fearless beacon of justice whether in brightest day, blackest night, or during a bad spell of whether. The multiplex has “gone green” with the new high-tech Green Lantern film playing every hour. So get your power ring charged (and your credit card, a 3D film isn’t cheap) and enjoy Hal Jordan’s big-screen debut.

This is an ideal time to look back at the earliest Green Lantern and wonder. For example, I wonder why he wears a red shirt? Would a character called Red Shirt have been as popular? Or, Purple Cape, for that matter?

To celebrate the new Green Lantern film, and to commemorate the poor fashion sense of the original Green Lantern, we present this stirring G.L. theme music, sure to inspire you as you speak your secret oath and avoid all things yellow.
