It's less than 6 months until Christmas, so why
not a Christmas story?
But some of the audience is less than enthused with the "
mixed" part of the choir:
Nope, no relevance to today
whatsoever.
Fortunately,
Alan rips into her:
And it gives him a good excuse to recount something that happened the previous Christmas, as
Doiby Dickles was laying near death's door with a bullet wound.
Oh, he could be saved, but...
HEY, GET YOUR POLITICS OUT OF OUR COMICS!!!
Green Lantern goes to confront the
Ladies Hospital Committee:
"
Chairman Rogue"
?!?!?
Well,. Mr. Helpless there tells GL that Rogue also is on...
Hmmm...no one ever sees him, but they give him control of all their money? Sounds
completely not-fishy.
Oh, and
this committee?
Totally not racist.
HEY!! I SAID KEEP YOUR SJW SHIT OUT OF OUR COMICS, ALAN SCOTT!!!
Well, there's one more committee to check up on:
Lantern uses his ring to compel the truth old of the ladies:
Let's summarize.
A) The Ladies Hospital Committee,
The Women's School Committee,
The Ladies Civic Club...this town is completely run by gullible and racist old women with no checks and balances! (Note--we're not canonically
Gotham City yet at this point, but man, this would explain
a lot)
B) Alan Scott is woke.
He sets up an overly-complicated trap using volunteer "
Santa" bell-ringers to help him find Rogue...
And he catches Rogue (who, no big surprise, turns out to be Mr. Helpless who was "
assisting" GL all along!
And Alan gives him the lecture:
Wow, a powerful man using racism and confused patriotism to make a buck? Why, I never!!
And the reveal!
Well, Doiby is saved, and it's back to "
present day" and the anti-mixed choir old biddy.
GODDAMMIT, ALAN SCOTT, WHY ARE YOU POLITICIZING COMICS BOOKS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
