Green Lantern readers over the last 6 years are certainly no strangers to big storylines and crossovers. DC Comics launched “The New52” in September of last year and crossovers were put on hold to let these 52 titles find their own lane. Since then, we’ve seen various titles mix and match(Frankenstein & O.M.A.C., JL: Dark & I,Vampire, Teen Titans & Legion Lost) but nothing on that felt like a “true” crossover event. That is until current Batman writer Scott Snyder embarked on his “Night of the Owls” crossover that sets off on the Bat books next month. Now it seems that Green Lantern will be next on the crossover docket for DC Comics in 2012.
Following the Princess Iolande centric episode, Green Lantern: The Animated Series looks to continue to deliver more lantern goodness to our hearts. Cartoon Network has provided media for the new GL:TAS episode “Lost Planet”, starting at 10:00am (ET/PT) on Saturday, April 7th, 2012. Below you’ll find episode details, two video clips, and a collection of images. As usual, head over to WF for the latest DC Nation clip.

TheGreenLanternCorps.com: First off, congrats on the consistently great sales on New Guardians. DC Comics has been running in full force since “The New 52” began in September, and the lantern books are one of two stables that didn’t remove its creative teams. You and writer Tony Bedard have moved from Green Lantern Corps to New Guardians, was there any talk of you leaving the Lantern books at all before the switch?
Tyler Kirkham: No, I was just told I would either be staying on Corps or launching a new title. Green Lantern New Guardians. I was at first a bit scared to leave GLC, because I knew it already had a following.
I was excited though. They did want Tony and I to stay together. DC likes our Kyle Rayner. So we followed him to New Guardians!
