That custom post-dates the DCAU.
"I'm Peter Wynne." He floats closer. "What do you have for me?"
"Do you have some ID?"
I take hold of the name badge I was issued upon arrival and hold it up. He nods.
"Right, just a sec."
He reaches out with his right arm, his forearm disappearing into… A subspace pocket, and pulling out a.. ring case, which he tosses to me.
"The Guardians say they didn't realise it was stolen. Ah, sorry…"
I open the case and touch the ring… Yes, it's either the ring or a functional duplicate. I'm happy either way.
Hopefully not too much of it. Seem to recall the climax of the first half didn't go too well for either Gunnery Sergeant Hartman or Private Pyle. Though I guess bobblehead malware prevents the rings from fully reenacting that scene.And I am going to be seeing Stewart and Kilawog reenacting Full Metal Jacket for the rest of the day. It is hilarious
The DCAU Guardians are a little humbler than most versions.
So.... What happened to Lantern Stewart then if Kyle Rainer is here?

Principle of the thing or not I'm still suspicious of the amount of work he put into getting back something he can't even use anymore. I suspect that he's been affected by the orange light more than he realizes.
If I remember right, Abin was kinda being hunted by Sinestro at the time and sent his ring out to keep Sinestro from taking it(DCAU Sinestro has a thing for taking the rings of Lanterns he beats as trophies). Superman was involved(as this was a Superman Animated Series episode) and ended up helping Kyle defeat Sinestro.I think Kyle got Hal Jordan's origin in the DCAU. So John Stewart was already a Lantern, Abin Sur crashed on Earth and instead of contacting John for support or another smart thing like that, just sent his ring to search for a successor. Kyle got selected and then was sent by John to Oa for training.
The funny thing to me is that making power rings useless if there isn't a lantern is a nerf Zoat added.
Stewart was able to absorb lightning from Static in Static Shock.
Alan, Hal, and Kyle were all able to absorb the magic of the Starheart.
In crossovers, Kyle was able to absorb the energy of the cosmic cube, Thanos's cosmic radiation and magic, and the Silver Surfer's power cosmic.
In Justice League Odyssey, Jessica absorbed the Omega Effect.
So in some alternate universe in hypertime, Blue Lantern Paul wasn't suffering from his lack of lantern but I don't know shocking people like Black Lightning, and Peter would be charging his ring with his cosmic staff, which would have the potential to really derail those storylines.
Oh that's bullshit, She's not even good at being a Lantern!
Did you forget about the versions that lack a Lantern, but can still recharge?
No, they were just completely irrelevant.
Converting magic to orange light is a separate canon ability of orange power rings, a technique that Zoat made an advanced ability for story reasons.
Do we really need to point out the irony in that statement given Paul?
snip snip
And ill repeat it that whole the Omega Effect may be able to somehow power a ring the various versions are probably going to try and stay as far away from it as possible.
Fair enough.
Actually, I can't recall any evidence that the Omega Effect is innately evil or anything.
It seems to be a tool like magic or the emotional electromagnetic spectrum, Darkseid is just a dick.
Somewhere in hypertime there could be a universe in which Drax managed to get the Omega Effect as planned and a more heroic New God wields the Omega Effect, instead of Drax becoming the Infinity Man.
Although one can presume that didn't happen on Earth-16, unless Darkseid's mother gave birth to a robot.....
The Avengers version and the Thundercats version don't recharge from their magic artefacts. They use them to open a portal to a place they can charge from.
General Eiling wasn't that bad until the grey goo scenario revealed that the Watchtower was armed, and then went paranoid along with Cadmus, then things were exacerbated by the entire fight between the League and Cadmus leading to Cadmus' official disbanding. The Justice Lords thing kind of compounded things there...He's okay with Eiling having super weapons? That guy gave me the creeps even without knowing about Cadmus screw ups.
And does Peter not remember Cadmus? I hope he is at least planning to subvert and infiltrate them or something and that's why he wants the ring back?

At this point, it seems like it's still prior to the grey goo mess, so Cadmus is making plans for things rather than directly planning to face off with the JL.
I'm not sure how many contacts Peter has in the US government, but even if he doesn't remember exact details of the DCAU, I should hope he's had some plans to deal with Cadmus, since things generally go wrong with it in most settings, I believe. As well as Suicide Squad/Task Force X, to a lesser degree. I think it reasonably falls under his purviews of organization and managing (ex)-supervillains. So far there's nothing in his internal narration to suggest he's worried about anything they're up to, and I feel like there should be.
Well, in regards to Avengers!Paul, it only makes sense that there's likely a dimension/plane of pure Avarice Energy to recharge his ring with. Marvel's got dimensions for EVERYTHING.The Avengers version and the Thundercats version don't recharge from their magic artefacts. They use them to open a portal to a place they can charge from.
He's in the world of Gate - Thus the JSDF Fought There (Gate - Jieitai Kare no Chi nite Kaku Tatakaeri).
