DC Universe Online: Visit Scenic S.T.A.R. Labs

The Austin Game Developers Conference kicks off today, and Sony Online Entertainment celebrates with new DC Universe Online Screens featuring S.T.A.R. Labs, Metropolis General, and some random DC guys.

Not sure that I really see a theme here running between all five screenshots. There's S.T.A.R. Labs in two or possibly three of the shots, but then there's the picture of the hospital in Metropolis and those guys fighting with the Green Lantern. Perhaps I'm just not up on my DC lore, being a born and bred Marvel fan, to really understand the connection here. Help me out here, comments section!
