We ran a rumor just yesterday about what Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment may do with their Green Lanterns come 2020(or sooner if they show up in Justice League or even sooner if they show up at Comic Con International in 2 weeks).

Could 2020 be the year of John Stewart? Possibly. Well, actually according to a recent rumor from Collider, we might actually get a live action Guy Gardner soon! How about that for some late Tuesday news!
Bryan Hitch’s JLA just hit the market today and he’s already making waves. In an interview running on DC’s digital show DC All Access, the writer/artist says this about his long term plans for the book:
“The way I’ve been kind of equating it to Brian Cumming, my editor, is that it’s like Game of Thrones. Where you have a single massive sprawling volume, which is fantastic, but is part of a much much bigger story in itself; it’s an epic,” Hitch explans. “If I had it my way, I’d do seven story arcs where each one of the core characters gets to be upfront more than the other and kind of leads that core story. Yes, I do have ideas for all of that and beyond. They’ll have to pry this book out of my cold dead fingers.”

Read on for how well the creative did with setting that fresh start up and whether they hooked this new reader.
Its that time again people! This time around we get teased for Lobo vs Sinestro, another GL annual issue, Blackest Night unwrapped and more! Check below for the details!
