Kilowog Looks Gross, Too
 |
?This is a much better look at Kilowog from the Green Lantern movie, thanks to a cover from an upcoming kids book tie-in, and he’s gross. However, he 1) looks gross in a good way, and 2) still doesn’t look as gross as Tomar Re. Actually, I’m digging the design, but I can’t help but wonder why his chest is so misshapen, or why someone appears to have eaten a small chunk of his skull. I know he’s more alien-looking than a lot of the Green Lanterns, but is this a normal part of his physical form? Or maybe he’s supposed to be scarred from previous battles and such? I don’t think it’s a bad choice either way, I’m just a bit confused. What do you guys think? (Via /Film)
