10 Funniest DC Comic Book Covers

10. Green Lantern 1994 #49

The Emerald Twilight storyline is a unique Green Lantern comic series for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it's a pretty raw look into Hal Jordan and his motivations and flaws as a person. Secondly, look at that face, that hilarious grinning face, that alone would make several series entirely worth it.

Although the actual plot - namely Jordan reaching breaking point and turning against the Lanterns - is scary, Hal's expression is anything but. It’s the kind of expression you would purposefully make if you were trying to be over the top, which just makes it look like Hal is goofing about with those rings – instead of, you know, being kind of evil.

That said, if being goofy was the main way to get away with being evil, Condiment King would be a force to be reckoned with – so maybe this expression is one best left in the past.
