1. It was a setup,
and we walked right into it.
Copy !req
2. Shut up, Galius.
Copy !req
3. This was supposed to be
a simple extraction.
Copy !req
4. Fall back and regroup!
Copy !req
5. Galius, Arkkis, take the right
and left flanks and squeeze.
Copy !req
6. Your Contact in the resistance
obviously missed a detail or two.
Copy !req
7. Quit griping. Let's just do our job.
Copy !req
8. This is pointless. We need more altitude.
Copy !req
9. I'm with you.
- Stop!
Copy !req
10. You're not dealing
with raw recruits, Katma.
Copy !req
11. Wait!
Copy !req
12. Oh, no.
Copy !req
13. No!
Copy !req
14. Kilowog, you've got to warn
the Guardians.
Copy !req
15. - I'm not leaving without you.
- No. I'll have to cover your escape.
Copy !req
16. It's the only way.
Copy !req
17. - Katma...
- I'm in charge here, Kilowog.
Copy !req
18. Now, go.
Copy !req
19. Go!
Copy !req
20. No, I said, rotate the
securing bolt counterclockwise...
Copy !req
21. not clockwise.
Copy !req
22. - That's what I did.
- Oh, no, you didn't.
Copy !req
23. Didn't you
tell me clocks on Thanagar...
Copy !req
24. - move opposite to those on Earth?
- I never said that.
Copy !req
25. Yes, you did.
Copy !req
26. Hey, you two wanna keep it down?
You sound like an old married couple.
Copy !req
27. That's better.
Copy !req
28. - Now what?
Perimeter alert.
Copy !req
29. Got a contact coming in fast.
Copy !req
30. - A meteor?
Don't think so.
Copy !req
31. I'm reading a life sign,
a possible incursion.
Copy !req
32. Only one way to find out.
Copy !req
33. I'll get J'onn.
Copy !req
34. Oh, no.
Copy !req
35. Hey, it's Kilowog.
Copy !req
36. Kilowog, what happened?
Copy !req
37. John, they got her.
Copy !req
38. They got Kat.
Copy !req
39. Who got her? Kilowog!
Copy !req
40. Take care of him.
Copy !req
41. What just happened?
Copy !req
42. Lucky for the big K, we've got
Martian care on our League HMO.
Copy !req
43. J'ONN J'ONZZ: Bolovax physiology
is very similar to my own.
Copy !req
44. And how much of this is guesswork?
Copy !req
45. I would rather not say.
Copy !req
46. - Hey, big guy.
- Hey, you little poozer.
Copy !req
47. J'ONN J'ONZZ: He'll be all right now.
- Great. Can we keep him?
Copy !req
48. It's called
the Legion of the Third Eye...
Copy !req
49. a fanatical cult
from the planet Kalanor.
Copy !req
50. They invaded Ranstad-7,
so we were called in.
Copy !req
51. Our orders were simple:
Copy !req
52. Bring in their boss, Despero.
Short-circuit his advance.
Copy !req
53. Sounds like they sent you
packing instead.
Copy !req
54. We underestimated
Despero's real power.
Copy !req
55. The others never had a chance.
I was lucky to get this far.
Copy !req
56. I lost some good friends back there.
Copy !req
57. - And what about this Katma Tui?
- I'm not sure what happened to her.
Copy !req
58. - She's Green Lantern who trained John.
- They must have been close.
Copy !req
59. Very close.
Copy !req
60. He was teacher's pet? Go, GL.
Copy !req
61. Not a good sign.
Copy !req
62. Must've had some heavy ordnance
to take out a G-class cruiser.
Copy !req
63. Just hope you survived, Kat.
Copy !req
64. Found you.
Copy !req
65. Oh!
Copy !req
66. What did I tell you? Contraband.
Copy !req
67. You know Despero's law
forbids you to read.
Copy !req
68. I beg Despero's forgiveness.
I praise his name.
Copy !req
69. Despero is the beginning.
Despero is the end.
Copy !req
70. Wrong. We are the end.
Copy !req
71. Can't we all just get along?
Copy !req
72. That's all you have to say?
Copy !req
73. Despero, save us.
Copy !req
74. Not this time. Good night.
Copy !req
75. You can demonstrate your gratitude
by giving me some information.
Copy !req
76. - Despero, forgive me!
- Wait!
Copy !req
77. Good job, Stewart.
This kind of attention I don't need.
Copy !req
78. - We can't raise John on the com-link.
- That's no surprise.
Copy !req
79. Kalanor's at the fringe of the galaxy.
Copy !req
80. What a cruddy place
for Katma to get stuck.
Copy !req
81. If she's even still alive.
Copy !req
82. The last time I saw her she was.
But I just don't know.
Copy !req
83. Well, we can't let John
face this Despero alone.
Copy !req
84. - Can you take us to Kalanor?
- I'm okay now.
Copy !req
85. But my ring's completely drained.
I need my lantern battery.
Copy !req
86. Doesn't John have one?
Copy !req
87. - Aah!
- You're right, you little poozer.
Copy !req
88. Of course he does.
Copy !req
89. - Do you know where he keeps it?
- I thought you might know.
Copy !req
90. - What do you want?
- Nothing that concerns you.
Copy !req
91. It does concern me
if you're breaking into Katma's quarters.
Copy !req
92. - Do you know Katma Tui?
- I'm Radocko, her friend.
Copy !req
93. But I don't know you.
I think you should leave.
Copy !req
94. I'm here on business from Despero.
Copy !req
95. Now, if you'd like to avoid trouble...
Copy !req
96. Not a problem. I... I apologize, sir.
Copy !req
97. Stealth and guile, Katma.
You were always right about that.
Copy !req
98. Kat, where are you?
Copy !req
99. Well, what do you know,
GL's a neatnik. So where do we start?
Copy !req
100. Most Lanterns stash their batteries
in a hidden pocket dimension.
Copy !req
101. This should just take a second.
Copy !req
102. Cool. Let me know when you find it.
Copy !req
103. - I don't think he keeps it in there.
- I'm not looking for a lamp.
Copy !req
104. You're not the only one
who needs a recharge, old pal of mine.
Copy !req
105. Aha, I knew it. Johnny
does have a chink in his armor.
Copy !req
106. Bob and Terry's?
Copy !req
107. - Delicious.
- Right.
Copy !req
108. Stick with me, big guy.
I'll open up a whole new world for you.
Copy !req
109. Hey, check this out.
Copy !req
110. People's exhibit B, Old Yeller.
Copy !req
111. Delicious.
Copy !req
112. What else can we find?
Copy !req
113. - Good Lord.
- What is it?
Copy !req
114. What are you doing in my building?
Why you wearing Mr. Stewart's clothes?
Copy !req
115. Uh, ma'am, we can explain.
Copy !req
116. Hyah!
Ow! Ouch.
Copy !req
117. Lady, please.
Copy !req
118. Mr. Stewart has
told me about monsters like you.
Copy !req
119. Well, I'm not gonna let you
suck out my brains.
Copy !req
120. Lady, we're his friends!
The good guys.
Copy !req
121. Found it.
Copy !req
122. Knock it off, lady. I'm gonna... Aah!
Copy !req
123. What are you waiting for?
Aah! Oh!
Copy !req
124. Nice meeting you, ma'am. If we ever
need a replacement for Hawkgirl...
Copy !req
125. And don't come back!
Copy !req
126. Another Green Lantern.
This is getting monotonous.
Copy !req
127. But I'm sure it's not your fault.
Copy !req
128. You were, after all,
just following your master's orders.
Copy !req
129. Despero, I presume.
Copy !req
130. Despero is all!
Copy !req
131. - With a backup group, no less.
- Guardians will be wise to step aside.
Copy !req
132. A new order to the universe is coming.
Copy !req
133. One that will be written in fire and
with the blood of all who oppose me.
Copy !req
134. You would be wise to join me.
Copy !req
135. I don't know what you're selling,
but I'm not buying.
Copy !req
136. What you want is irrelevant.
Copy !req
137. The only will that matters is mine.
Copy !req
138. The one true voice
of the Flame of Py'Tar.
Copy !req
139. Such was bestowed upon me
in the time of before.
Copy !req
140. I was but a simple peasant,
cast out because of my deformity.
Copy !req
141. Alone and forlorn...
Copy !req
142. I wandered in the wasteland...
Copy !req
143. guided by an unknown hand of fate.
Copy !req
144. It was when I was set upon
by a gang of thieves...
Copy !req
145. bent on taking what little I had...
Copy !req
146. that the ultimate truth
was revealed to me.
Copy !req
147. Before the thieves could flee,
the ground split asunder.
Copy !req
148. A great flame shot forth
and destroyed my assailants.
Copy !req
149. But I was spared.
Copy !req
150. My third eye opened
and the flame spoke to me...
Copy !req
151. in a voice only I could hear.
Copy !req
152. It told me of a time
when Kalanor would become a paradise.
Copy !req
153. Py'Tar charged me with the honor
of leading my world to greatness...
Copy !req
154. and spreading its light
across the galaxy.
Copy !req
155. Hmm. Your story
sounds a little derivative.
Copy !req
156. You doubt my word?
Copy !req
157. Behold, the Flame of Py'Tar.
Copy !req
158. You've built a bonfire.
Am I supposed to be impressed?
Copy !req
159. You are not the first skeptic.
You will not be the last.
Copy !req
160. Open your eyes that you may see!
Copy !req
161. Feel the power of my rage!
Copy !req
162. Feel the power of my hate!
Copy !req
163. You see the futility of your quest?
Copy !req
164. Priestess,
throw this one into the flame.
Copy !req
165. Steady. Increase to 20 megacycles.
Copy !req
166. - We're losing him.
- Switch to backup power. Now!
Copy !req
167. It's no good.
Copy !req
168. That'll do it.
Copy !req
169. What?
Copy !req
170. Welcome to the resistance,
fellow nonbeliever.
Copy !req
171. My name is Shifflet.
Radocko here you've met.
Copy !req
172. I should've guessed that one.
There's always a resistance, isn't there?
Copy !req
173. Wherever there's oppression,
there will be, I believe the saying goes.
Copy !req
174. Thanks. Now for the big question:
Copy !req
175. - Why am I alive?
- You were plucked from a fiery death...
Copy !req
176. courtesy of our handy
matter transporter.
Copy !req
177. You have a matter transporter?
Copy !req
178. It's a bit rickety,
but it's saved a few like yourself.
Copy !req
179. And it was the best
I could come up with on short notice.
Copy !req
180. Kat.
Copy !req
181. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
182. Nice to see you too.
I thought you were in trouble.
Copy !req
183. And since when have you known me
to ever need help?
Copy !req
184. I was obviously mistaken.
Copy !req
185. Here. A power ring's not something
you leave lying around.
Copy !req
186. It is when you're working undercover.
Copy !req
187. - Undercover?
- Coming in through the front door...
Copy !req
188. doesn't work here.
We lost Arkkis and Galius trying.
Copy !req
189. - Oh.
- Fortunately, I got away.
Copy !req
190. They helped hide me, and I've been
gathering intelligence ever since.
Copy !req
191. You always said, "Stealth and guile."
Copy !req
192. - I'm glad you learned something.
- So, what is Despero up to?
Copy !req
193. He's preparing to start
a massive war of conquest.
Copy !req
194. Ranstad-7 was just a test run for him.
Copy !req
195. But I don't know
when the real campaign begins.
Copy !req
196. And thanks to you,
I almost lost my cover.
Copy !req
197. I'm sorry, Kat. I didn't know.
Copy !req
198. Next time, call ahead.
Copy !req
199. So do you still snore?
Copy !req
200. - I wouldn't know.
- I'd like to stay and relive old times...
Copy !req
201. but it's the same drill as before.
Copy !req
202. Duty calls.
Copy !req
203. - I'll go with you.
- Nuh-uh...
Copy !req
204. John Stewart. You'll stay here
and coordinate with them.
Copy !req
205. But I...
Copy !req
206. Besides, you wouldn't look so good
in a brass bikini.
Copy !req
207. Oh, Flame of Py'Tar,
the time is at hand.
Copy !req
208. Infuse me with your power
so that I may carry out your will.
Copy !req
209. Together we will transform Kalanor
into a paradise...
Copy !req
210. and spread your light
throughout the universe.
Copy !req
211. It begins now.
Copy !req
212. All hail Despero!
Copy !req
213. Despero is the beginning.
Copy !req
214. Despero is the end.
Copy !req
215. Despero is all!
Copy !req
216. Prepare now
to receive the gift of Py'Tar.
Copy !req
217. Open yourselves
to the will of the flame.
Copy !req
218. Go!
Copy !req
219. The conquest begins now!
Copy !req
220. Emblazon my word and will
across the cosmos!
Copy !req
