The latest episode of Stargirl, "Icicle," seemingly laid the groundwork for the introduction of a new incarnation of Green Lantern.
Towards the end of the third installment of the DC Universe series, Pat Dugan takes Courtney to the old JSA Headquarters to show her a shrine to the fallen heroes who failed to stop the Injustice Society. Later, Stargirl returns with the Cosmic Staff and takes some of the relics in order to "do some recruiting."
We know the show is going to feature new incarnations of Hourman, Wildcat and Doctor Mid-Nite, but if that familiar-looking lamp is any indication, we will also see a modern day take on Green Lantern.
There have been several different successors to JSA's Alan Scott in the comics over the years, but we seriously doubt the likes of John Stewart or Hal Jordan will be joining Courtney's teenage superteam. We reckon it'll either be Simon Baz or Jessica Cruz, but there are obviously several possibilities.
What do you guys think? Did you watch the new episode yet? Drop us a comment down below, and check out the scene in question along with a new image of the villainous Dragon King.
