Episode Transcript/Quiz

Episode Intro

Episode Conclusion

“In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight.
Let those who worship evil’s might
Beware my power–Green Lantern’s light!”

I hope you had fun or at least learned something new. The Green Lantern comics are long and varied. Just researching this episode led me to realize how woefully behind I am in my comic book reading. Who is your favorite Green Lantern? Let me know on Facebook or Twitter. Or comment on the site if you like. Also, these episodes eventually go up on YouTube, so let me know there if you listen via that platform.

We’ll be back next week with another episode of the show. Here’s a clue to tide you over:

What was the third film to ever make $2 billion?

Tricky clue this time. I want to work your brains a bit. No cheating and looking on Box Office Mojo, OK?

I’ll see you back here next Wednesday.

This was episode 215 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast.

The theme music is by Jason Shaw at Audionautix.com.
