10. “The Eyes of Despero”
Guest Stars – Teaser: Dr. Fate, Episode: Green Lantern Guy Gardner, Green Lantern G'Nort, Green Lantern Sinestro
Another episode that is good rather than great, but that's okay. This one opens with the majority of the Green Lantern Corps (including a Hal Jordan cameo) mysteriously disappearing during combat with cosmic conqueror Despero. So now it's up to Batman and the three Lanterns who were imprisoned in the GL equivalent of a time-out chair to save the day.
So the fate of the world rests on the shoulders of the angry and jerkish Guy Gardner, the dumb but lovable G'Nort, and the cold and calculating Sinestro. They go off, fight Despero, and things don't exactly go the way they planned. Look, you don't have to be a comic book nerd to know that maybe the dude named "Sinestro" isn't totally on the up-and-up.
The real star of the ep is G'Nort, who is adorable and he's my baby and I love him. All and all, the ep is fine, but after two home runs, it suffers in comparison.
Verdict: Good.
And that's the first ten episodes of Brave and the Bold, the most underrated superhero cartoon of all time. At some point in the future, I'll take a look at the next ten, because I love this show. And if anything I actually said piqued your interest, go give the show a shot, it's quite excellent. Presuming you actually read the article and didn't just scroll down to the comments to screech about how it wasn't dark enough.
*Sigh*, the Internet. I'm gonna go watch the Aquaman episode again.
