June 2015 will have another special variant release month from DC Comics. This time around, they’ll be focused on the Clown Prince of Crime, The Joker. Check out the variant cover for Green Lantern #41 by Ben Oliver below.
Asked about the difference between working on a film like “Green Lantern” and the challenges of TV, Guggenheim said, “With ‘Green Lantern,’ we [he and Co-Showrunner Greg Berlanti] really learned the lesson of control. We didn’t have it on ‘Green Lantern.’ It got taken out of our hands at a certain point, and stuff happened. The difference between features and TV is that on TV, as a writer, you’re writing for your life. Every eight business days, there’s a new script due, and as a showrunner, it all goes through your pen. Sometimes what’s getting shot is literally your first draft. At the same time, it’s getting shot.”

DC definitely wants to do more Earth One books as evidenced with the release of Jeff Lemire and Terry Dodson’s Teen Titans: Earth One earlier this quarter. That’s it for the facts. Rumors on the other hand, well now they are running around like Aquaman with his hand cut off. Crazy.
