Green Lantern First Flight debuts at Comic-Con
SAN DIEGO — The Warner Bros. animated film Green Lantern First Flight debuted for around 4,000 excited fans in Ballroom 20 at Comic-Con International.
Producer Bruce Timm introduced the film, and led viewers in a recitation of the Green Lantern oath. Tricia Helfer, who voices Boodika, provided a taped introduction.
Christopher Meloni voices Hal Jordan, who goes on his first Green Lantern Corps mission in “First Flight.”
The film has a “Training Day” vibe, as Jordan is trained by the stern Green Lantern Sinestro, who, as comics fans will know, harbors a secret.
There are definite changes from the comic-book continuity, and some plot holes have to be willfully ignored. But it’s nice to see characters like Kilowog, Ch’p and of course Hal Jordan come to animated life.
