DC Comics and new "Green Lantern Corps" co-plotter Robert Venditti both recently took to Twitter to deny newd reports rumors that Green Lantern John Stewart was going to be killed off in an upcoming storyline.
While the John Stewart fan community collectively sighed in relief, other Green Lanterns were understandably upset. Frankly, there are just too many damn Lanterns and somebody is probably going to eat the long dirt nap at some point in the near future. Read More...

Actor Phil LaMarr, best-known in the cartoon world as providing the voice for the John Stewart Green Lantern, had mixed feelings about the news (as of yet unconfirmed by DC Comics) that the character might be killed off. As he tells Robot 6:
"This is tricky because it plays on two things in comic books that I feel strongly about. I think that for comic book stories to maintain their vibrancy, the artists and writers cannot be slaves to continuity or fanboy conservatism. On the other hand, black characters have a such history of being treated shabbily that my first thought was, ‘Watch, John will be the one guy who stays dead!’" Read More...

Scott Snyder seems to be everywhere at DC Comics these days: in addition to the best-selling "Batman" flagship title, he's set to team up with superstar Jim Lee on "Man of Steel." Leaving his own indelible "stamp" on the Batman Universe -- and perhaps Superman's as well -- the question has to be asked. Will Snyder one day assume the role (metaphorically or literally) that DC Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns holds at present? Read More...

You really have to ask: what would make YOU walk away from a sweeeeet gig writing two separate "Green Lantern" spinoff books?
According to the now former "Green Lantern Corps" and "Red Lanterns" writer Joshua Hale Fialkov on his personal blog, it was really quite simple:
"There were editorial decisions about the direction of the book that conflicted with the story I was hired to tell, and I felt that it was better to let DC tell their story the way they want." Read More...

Grant Morrison is no stranger to comic book fans. He is the prolific writer responsible for some of the most iconic modern era stories in the DC Universe. From "Final Crisis," to "All-Star Superman," to "Batman Incorporated," to his recent run on "Action Comics" that re-booted and re-defined Superman in DC’s "New 52."
Morrison’s work has taken the mainstream spotlight lately, making headlines with the high profile death of Robin, who also happened to be Batman’s son Damian Wayne, in last month’s "Batman Incorporated" #8. His epic run on "Action Comics" just closed with issue #18 and took Superman into a multi-dimensional game changing tragedy laden battle with the Fifth Dimension’s Lord Vyndktvx, which was fought through three time periods in the Man of Steel’s life.
