Alan Scott: The Green Lantern is a six-issue miniseries by Tim Sheridan and Cian Tormay, published by DC Comics as part of the Dawn of DC initiative.Way back in the thirties, closeted-gay military engineer Alan Scott and his lover Johnny Ladd were part of a secret mission to study a mysterious Red Flame in the middle of the ocean. The mission went awry and Johnny was seemingly killed. Years later, a string of bizarre murders involving victims who are all both burned and drowned - and who all have ties to Alan, who has since become the hero known as the Green Lantern - forces Alan to confront his past. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Alan Scott: The Green Lantern (Comic Book) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The Golden Age Red Lantern being a Soviet is one for the original Red Lantern story, which predates the modern Red Lantern Corps itself, and was instead about Kilowog defecting to the Soviet Union. Geoff Johns created both the new Golden Age Red Lantern and the Post-Crisis Red Lantern Corps - both are likely a nod to that story. | |

Beard of Evil | |
| Alan Scott: The Green Lantern (Comic Book) / int_2bfb1856 | comment |
Beard of Evil: Crimson Flame's bearded look contrasts with Green Lantern's clean-shaven one. The former is also the villain of the piece. | |

Older Than They Look: In the DC Pride: Through the Years one-shot, Alan's conversational partner says he is a centenarian, though he looks like he is in his forties at the most. | |

Husky Russkie: Crimson Flame appears in a one-page spread at the end of issue #3 and, like his cameos in the Justice Society of America (2022) book, he's got quite an imposing figure. He is also from Belarus, which, back then, was part of the Soviet Union. | |

Transparent Closet: In the forties, Alan is very much in the closet, but it's an open secret among his fellow superheroes. | |

Funetik Aksent | |
| Alan Scott: The Green Lantern (Comic Book) / int_48d9e12d | comment |
Funetik Aksent: Doiby speaks in a stereotypical Brooklyn accent, and his dialogue often substitutes "oi" and "a" sounds for "ur" or "er" (for example, he pronounces "murder" as "moida".) | |

Once More, with Clarity: Crimson Flame's flashback in issue #4 reinterprets how he acted during their relationship, by giving new context to scenes previously shown in both the DC Pride Through the Years one-shot and earlier in the mini-series. | |

Cure Your Gays | |
| Alan Scott: The Green Lantern (Comic Book) / int_9ce377f1 | comment |
Cure Your Gays: Following the incident with the Red Flame, Alan's relationship with Johnny was exposed. As Alan had saved multiple lives during the incident, the army didn't want to discharge him for fear that those he saved might protest in his defense, so instead, they offered to let him return to the military if he agreed to submit to "therapy" to cure his "disease". Said therapy included electro-convulsive therapy and the threat of lobotomy. Poor Billie, Alan's roommate, gets the latter and is sent home as "Mr. Billings". | |

Deliberate Values Dissonance | |
| Alan Scott: The Green Lantern (Comic Book) / int_aabe2fb | comment |
Deliberate Values Dissonance: The miniseries explores in detail the terrible ways in which gay and transgender individuals were treated back in the thirties and forties. Even Jay Garrick, one of Alan's future best friends and a character who normally serves as a beloved grandfather figure to the entire DC universe, is put off by Alan's homosexuality. Subverted, surprisingly enough, with the Spectre. Normally The Dreaded because of his whole deal as the Wrath of God, he is quick to assure Alan that God does not actually regard homosexuality as inherently sinful. | |

Bait-and-Switch Comment: After facing his former lover Johhny Ladd/Vladimir, Alan Scott asks if the former's wife knows about him, when Vladimir (Crimson Flame) interrupts Alan, thinking he meant "homosexual". However, Alan finishes the question: if she knows he is a spy. | |

Spotting the Thread | |
| Alan Scott: The Green Lantern (Comic Book) / int_ec0ce986 | comment |
Spotting the Thread: Subverted; Red Lantern is astonished that Alan didn't realize that he was lying about his origins when he claimed to be a graduate of the Florida State College; Florida State College was turned into an all-women's college in 1905, although it would become coeducational again in 1947, after the events of the miniseries. | |
