Their little adventure took them to the edge of the galaxy. Towards the end, they couldn't even use the threshold gates anymore, due to star-weights and gravity wells crushing and constructing the way there. Instead, they had to rely on the stargate abilities of their ringwielding allies.

Their journey ended in a strange and beautiful nebula at the very edge of the galaxy, one that had swirling gases in blue and green and violet and indigo. There, they found a dead, broken planet, the remains of the being once named Mogo, with four ancient structures.

The Green Lantern Central Power Battery. The Central Power Battery of the Star Sapphires -- the violet Lanterns. The Blue Lantern Central Power Battery. The Indigo Tribe Central Power Battery.

And in piles and piles around these ancient sources of power...were rings. Countless rings in all four colors. All without owners.

"Who dares disturb the resting site of the Green Lantern Corps?" an ominous voice said from the shadows after they landed.

"We come in peace," called out Kid Quantum. "Several groups of ringwielders were pulled against their will into this universe from a time and place when the War of Light was still ongoing. Some of those ringwielders were from the red and yellow Lantern Corps. Those who wear rings of green, violet, blue, and indigo, want to stop them from reigniting the war in this universe. They want to capture the red and yellow Lanterns and take them back home to their universe and time."

"And who are you?" the man asked.

"Kid Quantum, of the Legion of Superheroes. The Legion protects the people of this galaxy, the citizens of the United Planets, and we offered our aid to these displaced Lanterns. We heard that remnants of the Corps that were allied against the Red and Yellow Lanterns possibly existed on the edges of the galaxy. We've come seeking your help."

"It does my heart glad to learn of you," the voice said slowly. "We wondered if anyone else had ever risen up to take our place. But we had to stay here, to guard the last remnants, to watch over the Power Batteries and the rings. To make sure they were never used again. With the various Corps gone, anyone seeking them would only have wanted to misuse them."

The man stepped out of the shadows and now he glowed with the light of his green ring.

"I am Sodam Yat." He gestured to two other glowing figures that joined him. One was just a teeny speck of light, as if the being was normally too small to be seen by the naked eye. This was because the Lantern was a benevolent, superintelligent smallpox virus. The other was a battered robot that used his ring's energy in replacement of some of his parts.

"This is Leezle Pon." The speck. "And Stel." The robot. "We're the last of the Green Lanterns."

He looked at the Lanterns the Legion had traveled with and was clearly overcome with emotion at seeing faces that were, for him, 1000 years gone.

"I never dreamed that this could happen." He inclined his head at them all. "It's wonderful to be able to welcome you home."

"Now if only I actually had an imagination," Rich said with a laugh. "Don't get me wrong, put me on a battlefield, give me some intel, and I'll have enough creativity to find every possible way to shove some explosives up the enemy's exhaust ports."

He could be creative when it came to tactics.

"But that's not like...artistic or anything."
ringslinging: if they're in uniform?! serious question. (are cops allowed to hit on you)

"Rich, please. Have you seen the stuff I do? It doesn't have to be artistic if it works."

Big green boxing gloves and big green jets. Hal went other places sometimes, but for the most part, it was obvious what he was about.

"You say that like I'll even think of boxing gloves. All my instincts are to do the punching myself." A pause. "Which aren't exactly good instincts to have when your invulnerability and superstrength are gone, by the way."

He was actually a little nervous about that. The Surfer could've injured him like that either way. Even if he'd still had his invulnerability, there would've been nothing stopping him from rearranging his molecules as he saw fit.

But this was different.

"I lost my powers a few times off and on, but for the most part I haven't been this squishy since I was twenty-one. If I follow through on some of my usual fighting instincts I'm gonna shatter bones."

That was when he'd gotten his powers back and kept them (for the most part).

"Make yourself a tank - no, make yourself a giant robot. Something that'll let you punch without your hand being the one to take the impact." That was the thing, about this power - there was a solution for damned near anything, if you were willing to put a little thought in and find it.

"You know, a few other Lanterns came up with a formation once. Protocol 1013, battle formation 16. Adaptable if you have greater numbers, but it's meant for at least three. One to form the legs and the waist, one the chest and the arms...and one the head."

Rich laughed.

"So they basically decided to be an 80's cartoon and form a super robot to save the galaxy. Is what you're saying."

The mental image of Green Lanterns forming Voltron had pretty much just made his day.
ringslinging: with its superhuman capabilities (damn you and your marathon penis)

"Pretty much. If you've ever wanted to do something ridiculously over the top in the name of the greater good, here's your chance to make your dreams come true."
