Who is Lanterns’ Manhunter?

With the case seemingly about to bust wide open—and John and Hal seemingly convinced they’ve solved it—we consider the prime suspects.

Who is Lanterns’ Manhunter?

As the mystery surrounding the Manhunter deepens in HBO's Lanterns, multiple theories emerge about who could be behind the extraterrestrial benefactor's actions in Rushville, NE. One possibility is Zoe Macon, whose sporadic appearances and suspicious behavior have piqued interest. Another theory points to William Macon, a crypto-fascist billionaire with access to secret alien technology, as the likely Manhunter due to his immense wealth and the perfect cover as a reclusive rancher.

Hal Jordan, the protagonist, is also a potential candidate, offering a more intriguing twist as he could be the Manhunter himself. Lastly, there is the theory that everyone in Rushville is a Manhunter, which only adds to the enigmatic nature of the plot.
