DC’s current Alan Scott: The Green Lantern
mini-series seeks recontextualize the history of the first Green Lantern.  How well does it work as a retcon?  Does it fit the character?  Will it necessarily erase more than it gains
for the sake of diversity and inclusion? 
It’s a delicate subject and I hope to present a balanced perspective on
this topic.
