Ah well I must have forgotten/missed that article. Well that makes sense. Still should be intriguing.

MTV Geek: First off, that’s a pretty ominous looking cover. Do you see this issue as a beginning or ending?

Ethan Van Sciver: It's both! But it certainly does bring 50 years of Green Lantern stories to a conclusion of sorts. I cried. I'm crying now.

I fail to see how anything Geoff Johns writes could POSSIBLY "bring 50 years of Green Lantern stories to a conclusion of sorts". How much of that 50 years of stories has he even left remotely intact at this point? You can't offer a conclusion to something you have been ignoring and/or contradicting for years. Say what you will about Geoff's GL (and I know I, personally, have enjoyed a lot of it) but it seems ludicrous to see it as any kind of culmination of what came before him on the title.

Pretty easily, actually. A young Hal Jordan wakes up one morning after having a terrible dream where his dad dies in a plane crash, he get's some magic ring from an Alien and goes on adventures and shit. Then he goes to school.

That's the ONLY way it would work.


And it would suck.
