movie ready for their June release date. The end result was crappy visual effects that added to the movie’s over-sized budget.

Warner Brothers did a full court press to support Green Lantern. They had an animated series, video games, toys and theme park attractions tied into the movie’s promotional campaign. They also had a script in flight for the sequel they assumed would follow and their were also plans to make a Flash movie which would be set in the same universe. Everything was in place. All they needed was for Green Lantern to be a hit.

Unfortunately, the movie opened to terrible reviews and flopped at the box office. In 2008, Marvel’s Iron Man made over $300 million dollars on a budget of around $140 million. Green Lantern struggledKeywords:

Abstract

Bullheads, Cottus gobio, with macroscopic external cysts on the skin and fins measuring up to 3 mm in diameter were detected in the River Allen and its tributaries in southern England between 1992 and 1998. The prevalence of these cysts was up to 50% at some sites. Examination of cyst contents revealed the presence of numerous spores, typical of the genus Dermocystidium, measuring 8 μm in diameter. The parasite developed within well-defined cysts, which were located in the hypodermal connective tissues of the host. No cysts were present on the fins of any of the fish examined. Histological examination revealed a cyst wall consisting of an inner layer of dense eosinophilic material similar to that reported for Dermocystidium spp. forming coenocytic hyphae. No evidence was found
