This news comes just hours after Andy Diggle stepped down from\u00a0<em>Action Comics<\/em>, before his run kicks off. Obviously with two lantern books under his wing, Fialkov had some <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/10hDUYx\">pretty big plans<\/a> for our <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/XTQVHa\">characters<\/a>.

There were editorial decisions about the direction of the book that conflicted with the story I was hired to tell, and I felt that it was better to let DC tell their story the way they want. I\u2019m grateful for the opportunity and I\u2019ll miss working with the entire Green Lantern team.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>This was not an easy decision to make emotionally or financially, but, I\u2019m sure it was the right decision for both me, and for the Green Lantern books. The outpouring of support, your kind words and well wishes mean so much to me and my family.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In the meantime, I\u2019ll be writing ALPHA: BIG TIME and THE ULTIMATES over at Marvel, and THE DEVILLERS at Dynamite. I\u2019ve got a couple more projects in the works, so stay tuned.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>We&#8217;ll keep you posted when DC informs the masses of who will take Joshua&#8217;s spot and if his issues ever see the light of day.<\/p>\n<p>And to think I just added Fialkov to my computer dictionary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; We were looking for love in all the wrong places.
