Yeah... spoiler space doesn't really work as well for images as it does text. You can unfocus past a block of text, but it's pretty easy to see the spoiler image. A link to the image would have sufficed.

Since these are from DC Direct solicitations, they hardly count as "spoilers".
That's like calling a movie poster a spoiler!

Paul, I found it at AFI (Action Figure Insider .com)
a really good info site for figures I check from time to time.

Juan,
I have to disagree with you.
Like any good comicbook cover, the solicitation image (or cover) makes you want to know HOW the situation comes to be. And makes you wonder how the hero will be able to deal with the situation.
Personally knowing who the Black Lanterns will be just makes me more curious about how things will play out. I'm looking forward to this storyline (Green Lantern is the only ongoing DC title I collect) and I think the action figures are a great idea and they look amazing!

The spoiler in effect is another rehash.

CRISIS: kill Barry Allen "for good." Replace with kid sidekick.

Post-CRISIS: turn Hal Jordan into a villain.

FINAL CRISIS: kill Batman  4replace with kid sidekick (most likely.)

Post FINAL C: turn Earth-2 Superman into the Black Lantern (whoever that is.)

Some people like flipping through Diamond Previews and reading the comic solicits or watching the teasers for next week at the end of a television episode. Other people actively avoid them.

I simply posted the pics to share with the board, not meaning to give away anything storywise that DC wasn't willing to reveal. I was proud of my 'scoop'.
Sorry Michael.

Those GL figures will stand proudly alongside all my other DCDirect GL figures. They look awesome!

Lars,

You have nothing to apologize for.  Michael and Juan need to decide whether or not to avoid this thread, the burden is theirs not ours.  JB has established such posts are permissible.
