Since I was a kid, Green Lantern has always resonated with me, but it was Kyle\u2019s story that hit a major chord with me. I love how relatable he is, but he\u2019s still driven by nobility and courage. He faces all those things I love about space with a set of eyes that feel like my own.\u201d<strong>\u2013Michael Moreci <\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/V7f1HIL.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"780\" height=\"1200\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/oJLBE1I.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"780\" height=\"1200\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Announced today with a November 30th release date, the DC Comics $7.99 priced New Talent Showcase will feature the work of writers from DC\u2019s Writers Workshop Pilot Program, a 13-week program held January through March 2016.
