Green Lantern: Emerald Knights Page #3

...like Brilowog over here.

- Kilowog, sir.

Did you just say something, Brilobutt?

No, sir. Sorry, sir.

You're whoever I say you are!

- Understood?

- Yes, sir.

I can't hear you!

Yes, sir!

DEEGAN:
What was that ring call

I caught you making?

- You crying home to mommy and daddy?

- No, sir!

The call was to my wife, sir!

She's pregnant and l...

Did I ask for a medical report?

You got only one family right now, poozer,

and they're all wearing green rings.

Whose power, poozers?

ALL:

Our power, Sergeant Deegan!

Whose light, poozers?

Our light, Sergeant Deegan!

You're damn right!

DEEGAN:

Welcome to hell, boys and girls.

Here's where I weed out

those who belong in my corps...

...and those who don't.

First thing, I'll be taking your rings.

Sir, this volcano's active.

DEEGAN:
That's why we're here, bird-boy.

I wanna see what you're made of...

...without that hunk of shiny green

on your hand.

[ALL GRUNTING]

[GROANING]

[GRUNTS THEN SCREAMS]

Get yourselves in a straight line.

I'll be the base.

- We'll make our way up together.

- Think so, poozer?

RING VOICE:

Temperature spiking in magma chamber.

Eruption imminent.

[ALL YELLING]

Gonna let people step all over you,

Brilolog?

Just shrug them off and save yourself.

Not shrugging anyone.

[GRUNTING]

Maybe you poozers would like

to go someplace a little cooler.

Someplace with a breeze.

[SIZZLING]

[WIND HOWLING]

[ALL GRUNTING]

Can't hold on.

We won't let you go, Tomar.

TOMAR-RE:
Aah!

KILOWOG:
Tomar!

Guess you shouldn't make promises

you can't keep, poozer.

[GASPS]

Congratulations, rookies, now you got two

dead poozers eating sand instead of one.

[KILOWOG GRUNTING]

[TOMAR-RE GASPING AND COUGHING]

[GRUNTING]

[FIRE CRACKLING]

DEEGAN:

Get some rest.

You're gonna need your wits about you

when we hit the ice canyons tomorrow.

Why?

Why what?

Do you enjoy seeing us in pain?

Seeing us doubt ourselves?

It's like you want us to quit, sir.

I got nothing to explain to you.

We're all here because we wanna serve.

If one of us gets killed,

you're nothing more than a murderer, sir.

Say that again.

You're a mean, sadistic son of a... Unh!

[GROWLING]

[BOTH GRUNTING]

[GROANING]

You don't like the way I do my job? I don't

give a damn what you like, any of you.

If you're still alive and ring slinging

a few years down the road...

...and lucky enough to watch

your family grow as you honor your oath...

...then you'll understand.

But getting old in my corps is a privilege.

We die so innocents don't.

It's that simple.

Once you put on the ring,

the life you lived stops being your own.

[BEEPING]

SALAAK:
Deegan, this is Salaak.

- Yes, sir.
