Alexander Polinsky: G'nort

Quotes 

• Guy Gardner : Now, look, Bats, you can hatch all the plans you want, but from here on in, Guy Gardner's workin' alone.

  Batman : You so much as sneeze without my permission, you're going to regret it.

  Guy Gardner : That I'd like to see...

  [Batman punches him hard in the face] 

  G'nort : [snickering]  One punch! One punch!

  Batman : Get him on his feet.

  [Sinestro conjures a hand, which he uses to slap Guy awake] 

  Guy Gardner : Just for the record, I let you do that.

• Batman : Okay, Guy, you and G'nort take the left flank. Sinestro and I will take...

  Guy Gardner : Eat my toe nail clippings.

  G'nort : Don't worry, Mr. Batman, sir. I'll take the left flank. Um, uh, which way's the left?

• G'nort : You did it! You did it! My hero!

  Batman : No licking!

• G'nort : Okay, okay, all I gotta do is say the oath and save the world. I can't remember it! Ohh, no, no, sure I can. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I got it. "In sunniest day, in cloudiest night, no bad guy shall escape my bite..." Oh no, that's not it!

  [later] 

  G'nort : Ohh... ah! "On Labor Day, on Halloween night, no nose hair shall escape my sight."

  [later] 

  G'nort : "On Arbor Day, or Harvest Moon, no weasel shall escape my spoon..."

• Batman : The more we fight, the farther away Despero gets.

  Despero : Actually, I'm closer than you think.

  [appearing, growing to gargantuan size] 

  Despero : Look upon my magnificence, the fullness of my power. Do you see now why there's no hope?

  G'nort : Wowzer! That boy's had a real growth spurt.

  Despero : The universe needs control. You, of all men, must understand that.

• Sinestro : Something's wrong.

  [Despero vanishes] 

  Sinestro : An illusion. He was never here.

  Despero : Why should I be there when my mind is powerful enough to reach out and do the work for me? While you three have been battling dreams, I draw closer to my goal: the Green Lantern who will be my greatest, my ultimate weapon.

  Batman : I thought you were the only Lanterns left.

  Sinestro : There is one Green Lantern who wasn't on Oa.

  G'nort : Hokey smokes. He's going after Mogo.

  Batman : Mogo?

  Sinestro : Mogo is a living planet. And if Despero has gained control of him... there may be no hope left for any of us.

• Guy Gardner : [listening to G'nort howling]  Ah, shut your furry yap, will ya?

  G'nort : Hey, but I'm singing.

  Guy Gardner : Well, knock it off before I rip your tonsils right out of your throat!

  Batman : [thinking]  I'd know that obnoxious voice anywhere.

• G'nort : [the energy in his power ring fails]  I knew I should've charged this sucker.

  Batman : How did he ever get into the Corps?

  Sinestro : An influential uncle pulled a few strings.

  Batman : At least I can count on one man on this team.

• Guy Gardner : If it wasn't for me, Earth would've been kaput. Heck, the whole universe would've been toast.

  Batman : Gardner!

  [offering a handshake] 

  Batman : Good job, Guy.

  Guy Gardner : Yeah. Yeah, you, too.

  Batman : So, what did you end up doing with Sinestro?

  Guy Gardner : [indicating his power ring]  Ah, don't worry about him. He's in a safe place. Hate to say it, but you made a pretty good Lantern out there.

  Batman : Thanks. But if there's one Lantern here who deserves the credit, it's G'nort.

  G'nort : [cheers]  Wha...?

  [happily, he jumps into Batman's arms and licks his face] 

  Batman : G'nort, I told you, no licking.

• Batman : And you are?

  G'nort : G'nort Esplanade G'neesmacher, Green Lantern of space sector X minus 5267.-2.

  [hitting himself in the face trying to salute] 

  G'nort : Ow!

  Guy Gardner : Eh, go ahead. Tell him why you're in the brig.

  G'nort : Well, I came down to bring 'em lunch, and I'd locked myself in.

  Batman : Whatever the reasons you're all behind bars, it saved you from the fate that befell the others.
