## Summary

A new Comic-Con trailer for DC’s *Lanterns* revealed Sinestro and showed the series extending from a Nebraska murder investigation into space. The footage suggests a grounded, crime-focused approach while retaining the broader intergalactic scale associated with the Green Lantern mythology.

The series stars Aaron Pierre as rookie John Stewart, trained by Kyle Chandler’s veteran Hal Jordan to become an intergalactic police officer. Six clips included Stewart first using his power ring, Jordan confronting an apparent alien suspect carrying an explosive device, and teasers for Guy Gardner, whose actor Nathan Fillion made an unannounced appearance at the Hall H panel.
