Description I was working during Memorial Day, and the store was SO dead, I somehow found new levels of boredom in multiple layers that day.

The first level of boredom was that I started sketching Guy Gardner.
Now mind you, I love Guy. Since I started this weird journey to become the Green Lantern guru of my group of friends, (it started almost a full year ago, I think?) Guy has grown on me a lot in a short amount of time. He's HILARIOUS.
It's also been my intention to draw Nuriyah with different canon characters and some OCs as well, to sort of do small illustrations of her relationships with each of those characters. I am actually not sure how often she would interact with other Green Lanterns outside of John Stewart (as he's kind of her battle-mentor to balance out Saint Walker's teachings,) but I have a feeling that she would enjoy Guy's over-the-top bravado and loud personality...once she got used to him.

Still, I never would have guessed that I was going to just randomly start drawing Guy Gardner out of sheer boredom and without refs. My apologies for that actually, as I'm sure his costume looks weird enough, even without taking into account the fact that I started getting lazy and stopped detailing his gloved fists. His face and hair were fun to draw though!
And Nuriyah's being politely quiet and just watching Guy Gardner being... well, Guy Gardner. I think he'd tone it down just a little, because if his interactions with Milagro are anything to go by, I figure Guy's got a bit of a soft spot for kids. Though I think eventually he'd be a bad influence on Nuriyah. XD He'd be the one, if anything, to get her hooked on listening to Pitbull, Lady Gaga, 3OH!3, Katy Perry, or something.

Guy Gardner is my man when it comes to the Green Lantern Corps!
Heh, I adore how quiet and polite Nuriyah is

No Green Lantern is nearly quite so manly as the ever-impressive Guy Gardner!
I don't think she can help it; I'm pretty sure that John's told her all sorts of things about Guy.

Precisely! It's unbelievable that the girls don't see it (Or.. Ice kind'a likes him, doesn't she?)
Heheeh, of course! The man's pretty known for his... funny actions.. it's really hard not to tell about it!

True that! (She does! She just doesn't always put up with his crap!)
So very true! But I think that's part of why Nuriyah would enjoy talking to him once she gets used to how he acts.

The first thought to pop up when I first saw this pic was "Well looks like Guy has finally found someone to tell his 'Guy saves the day/Guy is awesome' stories to".

I've always found Guy to be an entertaining character myself, especially his interactions with other characters. And by the expression on her face it looks like Nuriyah may be wondering just how much exaggeration is in this story of Mr. Gardner's.

That's so accurate I cannot deny it in any way!!

Oh, Guy's a hoot! They did an excellent job with him in GLtAS too, he's always ticking other Lanterns off in a way that gets them to really cut loose when using their rings. I love seeing him interact with other characters too; there always seems to be some weird chemistry where they can't stand him but they cannot bring themselves to hate him either. And I'd say that's also pretty accurate. Doubtless John's told Nuriyah to take anything Guy says with just a grain of salt.
