So the guy that plays the bad guy in GL (I never read the series so I don't know his name) was on Conan last night and in the clip they previewed (where he first sees a GL dude who is dead, I think) in the background the set looks SOOOOOO much like a Portal Corp set! It was pretty crazy. Don't know if you can get the clip seperate. I'll look.

Saw the clip, he plays Hector Hammond who gets called in to examine the body of Abin Sur, the GL who passed his ring to Hal Jordan.

Sorry That_Ninja, no conspiracy sillyness here. I just thought it was pretty close to Portal Corps. I don't care where the set designer got the idea from. I just thought it was close. Have a nice day.

But yeah it should be said definitively that Portal Corp. got its look from Stargate.
