Duck Dodgers!

[yendi]

I finally got to see the GL episode of Duck Dodgers last night. Twice. I damn near had a Lanterngasm. :-) They had everyone! I mean everyone. Kilowog (voiced by John DiMaggio), Katma Tui (voiced by Tara Strong), Sinestro (voiced by John de Lancie) and Hal Jordan (voiced by Kevin Smith) were all there, of course, but they had Tomar-Re and Boodikka in nice segments, and had background appearances by everyone from Guy Gardner to Ch'P, from that plant-haired guy Alan Moore wrote about to G'Nort. It was just amazing. Other than Kyle and Rond Vidar, I don't think a single Lantern was left out (there was even a cartoonish John Stewart). Just amazing.

In Legion of Super-Heroes, set in the 30th-century, Rond Vidar was the son of frequent Legion villain Universo, who had hypnotic abilities. But Rond was a good guy, and after helping the Legion defeat Universo a time or two he was made an honorary Legionnaire.

In the current continuity he was revealed a few years ago to be a covert Green Lantern; covert because, for reasons I can't remember, Green Lanterns had been banned from Earth.

The reasons were that Rond's dad, while still a GL, attempted to get to the information about the formation of the universe that the Guardians wanted to be kept hidden. This was after he and two other GLs had stopped the Legion from discovering the same info. The Guardians apparantly pissed off the Earth gov. Interplanetary politics as usual.

Did we ever find out whose hand that was?

I don't think so. Although if it was ever told, I'd bet it was somewhere in the Levitz LSH run.
