Beware My Power!

Growing up in the 1950s and 1960s I was used to Hal Jordan as earth’s Green Lantern.

In the early 1970s a new Green Lantern appeared: John Stewart, a ex-Marine living in the inner city and coping with the high crime rate and corruption in his neighborhood.

John was brash, full of bravado, intelligent, resourceful and most of all possessed a will of iron. It would be traits that perfectly suited him to become the new Green Lantern.

In Warner Bros. DC Universe Movie Green Lantern Beware My Power 4k Ultra HD/Blu-ray/Digital Code Combo Pack, John’s origin as Green Lantern is recalled and slightly revised.

When ex-Marine sniper John Stewart struggles with delayed stress syndrome he thinks he is hallucinating when he encounters a dying alien with a Green Lantern power ring. When the alien dies the ring selects John to be the next Green Lantern of earth.

From there John is sent to the Justice League headquarters where he faces off against JL members who, at first, fight him only to discover he is a Green Lantern.

The JL members (The Marian Manhunter, Green Arrow, Hawkgirl and Vixen) and John team up to discover what happened to earth’s original Green Lantern Hal Jordan.

Green Lantern and several members of the JL travel to two far away planets that are gripped in war.

While there they finds themselves enmeshed in the war and face off Against Sinestro of the Yellow Lanterns and several other super villains.

Beware My Power has lots of action, some great animation and a compelling story that delivers both the legend of the Green Lanterns and various DC heroes and villains.

Included in the Combo Pack is a John Stewart featurette and two bonus cartoons.

Matthew 6:19-20 (NKJV) “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal;
but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.”
