When Peter Milligan hears the words “event” or “crossover,” his heart usually sinks like a “big heavy sack of porridge.”
But not this time.
Milligan, who writes Red Lanterns, promises that the upcoming Green Lantern event, “The Rise of the Third Army,” is a good one. And he’s utilizing the threat of the Third Army to explore some character-driven stories about his characters. Check out his interview with Newsarama.
“Who the First Lantern is and what his role will be in the upcoming Green Lantern universe will come into play very, very quickly,” hinted GREEN LANTERN writer Geoff Johns. “The being inside has been imprisoned there for a long, long time. The Guardians consider him their greatest threat, but also their greatest source of power. Whether he’s friend or foe will be up for debate, but regardless he is one of the potentially most dangerous beings in existence.”
“In GREEN LANTERN ANNUAL #1, readers got their first glimpse at the First Lantern, someone who’s been locked away for a very long time—for a VERY good reason!” teased editor Matt Idelson. “His presence in this story is the catalyst for something very bad, and yet his story is only going to grow from here.” via The Source
