Added example(s)
* ScatterbrainedSenior: John's mother is suffering from dementia and still believes that her abusive husband hasn't left her and that her daughter Ellie Rose is still alive. John is torn between enabling her delusions to keep her happy or trying to keep her tethered to reality.
Changed line(s) 25 (click to see context) from:
* SuddenNameChange: It was actually established that John had a deceased younger sister all the way back in Creator/JuddWinick's ''Green Lantern'' run during the early 2000s, with the character subsequently being referenced again in an issue of Joe Kelly's ''ComicBook/{{JLA|1997}}''. However, John's sister was named Rose in those appearances, while here, she's called Ellie.

However, John's sister was named Rose in those appearances, while here, she's called Ellie. Later issues split the difference and have her name be "Ellie Rose Stewart".
* {{Tulpa}}: After seeing his dementia-addled mother break down in tears over Ellie Rose, John decides to address this by using a Power Ring to create a replica of Ellie that acts as an extension of his will. Although she's made of the same green light used by the Green Lanterns in their HardLight constructs, she lives, breathes, and talks like the original Ellie Rose from John's memories. But this also means that she's a "Child of Oa" and will do ''anything'' to keep her "mama" safe and happy, even if it means entertaining her dementia-induced delusions.
