I recently got the chance to speak with All-Star writer Geoff Johns, and the only thing harder than keeping my composure in the conversation is trying to summarize it for the show notes. It's probably best you just listen. About Geoff Johns:Geoff Johns is an award-winning and New York Times bestselling writer, film and television producer, showrunner, and entrepreneur known for re-imagining superheroes and other iconic mythologies, past and present. Johns is best known for his work on properties such as Green Lantern, Aquaman, The Flash, Superman, Batman, Justice Society of America, and most recently, the creator-owned hit series GEIGER, currently being adapted for television at Paramount.Since the beginning of his creative career, Johns' hallmark has been writing heroic and inclusive characters, including teenage hero Courtney Whitmore aka Stargirl, inspired by his real-life late sister; the Shazam Family, which he re-imagined into a diverse modern family of today; and the first Arab-American Green Lantern, Simon Baz, as well as the explosive multi-colored Lantern mythology that defined his decade-long bestselling Green Lantern run, among many, many others.Johns' most recognized work in television is the critically acclaimed “Stargirl” series which he created and ran. Some of his film credits include “Wonder Woman” (executive producer), “Wonder Woman 1984” (also co-writer), “Aquaman” (also story) and “Shazam!” (executive producer), based on his graphic novel with longtime collaborator and modern legendary artist, Gary Frank.In 2023, Johns co-founded GHOST MACHINE, the first-of-its-kind creator-owned company. This groundbreaking collective includes some of the industry's most legendary writers and artists, disrupting the old industry model by giving ownership to its creators, and paving the way for them to retain creative control and financial participation.Born in Detroit to a Lebanese father, Johns was honored with his own permanent section at the Arab American National Museum in Dearborn, Michigan.

We wrap up Lantern Month with a case study in PTSD, Jessica Cruz! Lock yourself in your apartment and listen now!  Issue 167 - Jessica Cruz Intro Thanks to everyone who joined us for the watch party Background (1:56) Jessica Cruz created by Geoff Johns, Ivan Reis, Doug Mahnke, and Ethan Van Sciver in Justice League #30 (July 2014) Jessica was on a camping trip with her friends when they witnessed mobsters burying a body - the mobsters killed her friends to prevent witnesses, but Jessica escaped When she returned, she suffered from anxiety attacks and agoraphobia, and locked herself in her apartment for four years When the Crime Syndicate of Earth-3 came to the planet and Power Ring was killed, his ring found Jessica and bonded to her because of her fear - the ring took over and led to her attacking the Justice League & Doom Patrol With the help of Batman & Hal Jordan, she learned to use the ring and control it, instead of letting it control her During the Darkseid War, his daughter Grail summoned the Black Racer to kill the Flash, she managed to overtake the ring's control long enough to jump in front and attack the Black Racer - it killed the entity in the ring, and left Jessica presumably dead, until a Green Lantern ring approached her and turned her into the newest Earth Lantern Hal partners her with Simon Baz, the other new Earth Lantern, and right after they start working together, they have to take on Atrocitus and the Red Lantern Corps, who are constructing a Hell Tower on Earth - they destroy the tower, but the Rage Seed was still implanted in the Earth She joins the Justice League, and helps them take on Doctor Manhattan (unsuccessfully) Gets stranded on an outpost alone in space for a year, and managed to fight off Sinestro Corps members when they came to the station in search of supplies - she earns a yellow ring after this, and joins the Sinestro Corps as the Lantern of 2814 Issues - Theme is “You got this… but what if you don't?” (6:48) PTSD - Agoraphobia PTSD - Anxiety (13:05) PTSD - Imposter syndrome (20:41) Break (31:31) Plugs for SNEScapades, Last Sons of Krypton, and Jeremy Whitley Treatment (33:25) In-universe & out of universe are the same -  Skit (feat. Lauren from Legends of SHIELD) (39:02) DOC: Hello Jessica, I'm Dr. Issues JESS: *deep breath & exhale* Hello Doctor DOC: What can I do for you? JESS: Well to be honest I'm a little creeped out DOC: Why is that? JESS: This isn't what I expected.  Your office is… unique DOC: I have to admit I've made some recent changes.  I have to keep up with the latest breakthroughs in therapy. JESS: It looks like you may have gone backwards instead. DOC: What do you mean? JESS: Well, first of all I thought there would be a couch.  Why is there a beanbag? And what is that lavender smell? DOC: I have come to realize that the environment is very important for patients to get better.  That beanbag is warm and comforting and lavender is known to be very soothing.  But I didn't stop there.  I'm sure you've noticed that tall lamp as well. JESS: Yeah, I think that's something that I should really talk to you about. It looks like something I've been… Researching. DOC: it's part of my new concierge model.  I want to be able to dedicate myself to my patients more and in a fashion that will allow for the best results while not stressing me out.  But I apologize, I just realize I haven't really focused on why you want my help in the first place. JESS: ‘Cause I've been through some bad stuff, that's why.  And there are some serious times I feel like I can't do this at all.  DOC: Well I can't blame you for feeling that way. That's pretty common.  What does that do to you emotionally? JESS: It makes me wanna jump out of my skin sometimes.  I become a nervous wreck.  DOC: Anxiety.  Got it.  But I notice with what you have, clearly you have been managing very well for yourself. JESS: What, the ring?  That's part of the problem. Everybody thinks I have it all put together.  *Scoffs* It makes me feel like an impostor.  DOC: What's that saying, “dress for the job you want?” JESS: You're one to talk.  *Sarcasm* You don't really dress like a DOCTOR DOC: You know, I used to dress up in a full suit, but then I became more comfortable with who I am so I dress the way I want. JESS: Is that why you went with this color scheme for the office?  To match your personal preference? DOC: If you must know, I actually picked this as a compromise.  My favorite color is blue, and my daughter enjoys purple, so somewhere in between seems fitting. *pause* Why are you so fascinated with the random intricacies of my decor?  I'm supposed to get to know your situation, not the other way around. JESS: *sigh* Is it really that obvious? DOC: You have been fidgeting for quite a while, you constantly look over your shoulder, and so far all you've done is critique me to the point that if I weren't so chill about all of this I'd be insulted. JESS: Like I said I've been through a lot in my life. It pays to be safe. DOC: I don't expect you to go into details, but if you could at least identify what type of trauma you've had it would be helpful. JESS: My face, rather my EYE, gives it away.  You're not stupid. DOC: That definitely looks like a source of pain and I'm sorry.  But there's more to it than that. You seem distracted.  Is there anything else? JESS: You're definitely perceptive, I'll give you that. *grunts* I can't do this, ok? *angry* I CAN'T DO THIS DOC: Whoa! I didn't mean to get you that upset JESS: Well you did…  Not you really…but…what you're doing DOC: I'm doing my job JESS: No you're doing someone else's job, and that's what I'm trying to figure out…this could have been simple…*changes to authoritative tone* this is official green lantern corp business.  This office has been on our radar for months.  We know who comes in and out of here but lately, something has changed. *sound effect for powering up* Please provide us with the appropriate information, or I may have to use force. DOC: Well at least you're nicer than the joint commission. *sigh*OK here goes.  I've made a deal with a private equity firm… Of sorts.  It's not a complete buyout so I still have significant control.  Heck, they didn't even want money.  They just wanted my office to be able to accommodate certain situations, along with my professional expertise. JESS: Is that how you brainwashed Guy Gardner into thinking you're the best psychiatrist ever? DOC: What?  No, I JESS: * interrupting* and is that how you survived ATROCITUS without being obliterated? DOC: He just left on his own! I thought I was going to die! JESS: *phone rings* This call is important.  Don't…move… DOC: *surprisingly calm* wouldn't dream of it JESS: Hello…what? That was never supposed to happen in our lifetime…I'm not… you can't …someone else …ANYBODY else…you're asking for failure! No! * hangs up* We have to leave now! *panicked* NOW! DOC: * phone rings* apparently it's my turn JESS: I don't care…it's not that important DOC: You don't know that *answers* hello this is Dr. Issues…  I didn't realize it was you.  Yes I do think that's relevant to what's going on right now.  I guess it fits in with being audited.  Okay I'll put in the orders JESS: We don't have time for this, we have to leave.  There's a creature that can destroy us all coming here right now and he is not about making friends.  It's another lantern…  The only orange one!  DOC: *interrupting* Nope actually we have to stay. More importantly, when I tell you, you have to open that door. JESS: The closet?  You're gonna have us hide in the closet? This is ridiculous. DOC: We're not going in. He is. JESS: You're not trapping the greediest being in the universe in the closet! DOC: * deep sigh* Please understand that I am terrified right now and the only reason I'm keeping calm is that this is what happens to me when I know there are things that must be done.  So for the sake of your life, mine, and everyone that we care about, just open the door when I say so. I'm begging you. JESS: And when this doesn't work…? DOC: Then I know I will have done everything I could and I know a hero such as yourself will fight to her last breath…  But I hope it doesn't come to that. JESS: Every day is a fight.  Every moment.  The choice to get out of bed.  To eat. To smile.  Everyone takes that for granted.  And you really think I could fight that…  whatever it is when it gets here? DOC: Thank you for fighting, and winning all of those so far.  So much anxiety is about “what if,“ and you have to keep proving yourself.  The good news is there will come a day where you don't have to ask that question anymore.  Maybe today's the day. ***chant of MINE IS MINE AND MINE AND MINE AND MINE AND MINE AND MINE *** DOC: NOW! ***scream of NOOOOOOOT YOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUURS*** *** door opens then slams shut *** JESS: What was in- DOC: *answers phone again* Yes I was already putting them in…  I think the HalJordanol should work if it's administered as an inhalant.  I'll admit I don't know what the normal vital signs should be…  Not aware of any next of kin listed.  Estimated length of stay 5 to 7 days or epochs, whatever term is appropriate. *hangs up* JESS: What did you do? DOC: It will all make sense if you open the door again. JESS: Are you insane? We can't let him-  *stops abruptly* He's not in there, is he? DOC: See for yourself JESS: *opens door* It's empty…  And it looks like a hospital room? DOC: Crisis area.  I'm not a contractor but I'm guessing there is some inter-dimensional stuff at play. JESS: Then where is he now? DOC: To be honest I don't know how to describe it, but if a hospital is the best analog, let's just say he's being held for observation with a plan to return to his residence. JESS: There is no way the Guardians authorized this DOC: I'm no expert in those types of discussions.  All I know is, I have someone who can give a proper report of a system like this working for the first time. JESS: You'll need some official documentation DOC: Right now the best I can do is my card JESS: I can't read it…  It's like it's in some sort of alien language. DOC: Yeah I actually can't read it either but for some reason I can understand it.  They messed up my name though. It says “Dr. Ishigo.” They also said that this is only for Lantern situations. JESS: I don't think that's a mistake.  DOC: Nok.

 We kick off Season 10 and Lantern Month with the prickliest Earth Lantern, GUY GARDNER! How does Doc survive a session with someone like this? Tune in to find out! Intro Welcome back for Season 10 January is Lantern Month Patrons will get an exclusive episode, plus a watch party of the Ryan Reynolds movie Background (4:00) Guy Gardner created by John Broome and Gil Kane in Green Lantern #59 (March 1968) Guy is the child of an abusive alcoholic who regularly beat him, giving him an aggressive nature and a defiance to authority In college, however, he shifts and becomes engaged in social work, and later a teacher for disabled children When Abin Sur's ring sought out a successor, Guy Gardner would have been chosen had he been closer, but since Hal Jordan was in the vicinity of the crash, he was selected He later becomes a reserve Lantern, backing up John Stewart Hal's power battery explodes in his face, trapping him in the Phantom Zone - when he is freed, he is comatose and suffering from brain damage for many years The Guardians revive him and give him a new ring & outfit, and charge him with assembling a team to battle the Anti-Monitor - the brain damage during his coma altered his personality, leaving him immature, arrogant, and violent He is a founding member of the Justice League International, although he chafes against Batman's leadership - Batman knocks him out with one punch, and when he awakens, he is empathetic and caring - until he hits his head again, and he reverts to his abrasive self Loses a fight with Hal and surrenders his ring, but later finds a yellow ring of Sinestro's After losing an eye in another fight with Hal/Parallax, he drinks from the Warrior chalice and unlocks dormant powers hidden in his DNA - he then becomes a shapeshifter that can create weapons from his limbs He is returned to full human in GL Rebirth when the Parallax entity is stripped from the main power battery, and he becomes one of the trainers for the new Corps, later becoming a member of the Honor Guard During Blackest Night & War of the Lanterns, he wears a Red ring and then a Sapphire ring, fueling himself with rage over the death of Kyle Rayner and his love of the Corps New 52 - He gets dismissed from the Corps after the Guardians create the Third Army to replace all Green Lanterns, but regains his ring, and along with Simon Baz & other Lanterns, they defeat the Guardians and restore the Corps Then he joins the Red Lanterns, working as an undercover agent on behalf of the Green Lanterns - he takes over from Atrocitus as leader, and uses his rage against what he felt as disrespect from Hal, John, Kyle, the Guardians, and the Corps Issues - Gotta love ‘em, because otherwise you'll hate ‘em (9:03) All right, so...Guy Gardner. The friend in the group no one really likes that much. The really difficult coworker who's indispensable and you have to try and get along with because you know he's not going anywhere. The guy who never really grew out of his high school jock phase. We've all known a few Guy Gardners in our lives. Some of us may have even been a Guy Gardner at one time and not know it. Guy's really not that much of a mystery. His issues are right there out in the open in big blinking neon letters. Cockiness and abrasive personality. If you aren't aware of how great a Green Lantern, superhero, or a man Guy is, just ask him. He'll be happy to tell you all about it. If you have a disagreement about Guy's assessment of himself, he'll also be happy to correct your misconceptions. Loudly, at first. Violently, if loudly doesn't get the job done. Guy's got an incredibly big mouth and certainly doesn't mind telling you exactly what he thinks of you. This tends to make him more than a little difficult to get along with as a person, and much more difficult as a teammate. It's become a running gag over Guy's time in DC that his fellow Corps members and Justice League teammates are not shy about expressing enjoyment when bad things befall him. Even people like Superman, who'd normally be above such things. No sense of self-preservation. You know that phrase, "your mouth's writing checks your ass can't cash"? Guy's ass has not only stopped payment on the many checks his mouth has written over the years, it's sent his mouth several overdraft notices. It's the primary requirement of a Green Lantern's job description to be able to overcome great fear. One of the reasons Guy is such a great Lantern is that he seems too thick-headed to even understand the concept of fear at all. His default mode is, "you want a piece of me?" and he frequently charges head-first into a fight without any plan other than letting his willpower, gumption, and titanium balls carry the day. And he will often get slapped around for his trouble, not only by more powerful opponents like Doomsday, but baseline humans he picks fistfights with like Hal Jordan and Batman. It really seems like a little bit of healthy rational fear would serve him well. (25:48) Identity wrapped up in being a Green Lantern. Of all the Lanterns we meet and get to know well, Guy loves being part of the Corps and being a superhero maybe more than any of them. Beneath his rough exterior, the times he's been on the outs with the rest of the Corps and stripped of his position absolutely kills him inside. During the War of the Lanterns arc, where he had to learn how to power a violet ring off of love, the only thing that got it working was him proclaiming his love for the Corps, and how he had absolutely nothing without them. Guy is a person who loves his job more than anything else in his life, and doesn't really know how to function when it doesn't love him back. (31:16) Break (40:41) Plugs for Ignorance Was Bliss, Play Comics, and Howard Mackie Treatment (41:53) In-universe - Make Guy think Doc is the best of the best, and then deflate that Out of universe - Real-world equivalents? Come on, the world is full of these people. Men, women, rich, poor, they come from all backgrounds, all walks of life. Pig-headed people who think highly of themselves, think they're always right, and have a hard time making anything more than the most superficial connections with others. People who never really matured as they got older, who love to rag on others way past the point where it stops being funny, who carry jokes way too far, and can't let things go. But for whatever reason, it's easier to keep them around than the alternative. (45:28) Skit Hello Guy, I'm Dr. Issues. - What's up Doc? Not much - I bet you hear that ALL THE TIME. Eh, you get used to it. - Must be tough, dealing with all these whackjobs and nasty bastards all day.  It's not easy, but - I mean it's not like patrolling the whole galaxy or nuthin', but it's a good gig I ‘spose. I do like - Must take a lotta willpower to face all the stuff you see every day. Bet you think you could even wield a power ring, eh? To be honest, I hadn't considered - Well lemme disabuse you of that idea right off the bat. THIS ring is only for the strongest of will. There are a lotta wannabe ring-slingers out there, but the Corps only takes the best o' the best. I should know, they picked me.  I can see - An' I'm so good they let me weed out the softies who can't hack it. Me an' Kilowog, we train all the rookies an' turn ‘em into solid, functioning Lanterns. Not just anyone can do that, ya know. I'm sure - ‘Course if I had full control, there'd be a few folks I'd never have let in the first place. I mean Sinestro, c'mon, you can see from a mile away he's one guy who shoulda never got a ring. His name is friggin' Sinestro, I mean, what's next, a lantern called Evil McMurder? The Smurfs make a lotta mistakes, but that's gotta be up there, top 5 at least. Smurfs? - The Guardians, lil' blue dudes, they created the Corps. They say they don't use emotion, but if you ask me, sometimes they throw logic out the window too. Then again, they put me in charge of stuff, so what's that saying? A blind squirrel finds a nut? I have heard that - I mean, I should be the full-time Lantern for Earth, we don't even need anyone else. The other guys are OK, but if you can have filet mignon, why settle for a sloppy joe? Different folks have - John's alright. Bit too stick in the mud for me sometimes, but he's definitely thorough when it comes to dealing with stuff. A Marine cop architect ain't exactly the kinda guy who's gonna miss details. An' a black guy has seen enough hateful stuff to give him perspective on conflict, I mean i'm sure you get crap all the time. I don't quite see how that's - Kyle's a good kid. He's gotta stop beatin' himself up over every lil' thing, though. He needs better coping skills, ya can't just draw your problems away. I mean he's a great partner, but the crying and whining get old after a while. “Oh i'm a sensitive artist, all my girlfriends die, boo hoo.” If he starts pissin' me off I ask him to get me somethin' outta the fridge from Alex. That shuts him up for a while hahahaha Wow, I don't even know where - An' then there's Jordan. The hotshot. The ace pilot. The pretty boy. If I hadda nickel every time someone fawned over him, I'd be able to afford a nice little place in Pago Pago. He's gotten us inta more scrapes and fights than I can count. Seems like just about every problem the Corps has can be traced back to him, somethin' he did, someone he ticked off, it's almost always Hal. An' he knows it too. What I wouldn't give ta wipe that smug smile offa his mug. Sounds like you've got - Oh an' don't get me wrong, I've tried. More than once, actually. Sonuvabitch always ends up getting me with a lucky shot.  If it's happened more than once - But as much as it pains me ta say it, for every time he's put us in danger, he's saved our ass. Mine, yours, the universe's. He and I have gone toe-to-toe so many times, and no matter what, he's always gonna be the first one ta back me up when it hits the fan. So yeah, I don't like him half the time, but that don't mean I don't respect him. Fact is, he needs me to push him.  How do you - He knows I'm right awn his ass, ready to take his spot if he so much as sneezes the wrong way. John, Kyle, the other kids, hell even the other Lanterns, we're all waiting for him to mess up. And the beauty of it is, ya don't even hafta wait that long, because it's Hal.  That kind of pressure - Makes diamonds? Yeah, that's what it's like in the Corps. We don't have the luxury of second-guessing ourselves. Ya can't be afraid of things, that's kinda the whole point. No fear, willpower, all o' that. When ya been through everything I've been through, fear is a waste o' time.  But fear can - An' all those other colors, the Froot Loops Troops, they can suck an egg.  Other emotions are just as - Yeah, I'm sure you're gonna give me some spiel about the power of emotions, and I'll be honest, I've felt the power of all of ‘em at some point, ‘specially when they're punching you in the face. *whispers* I'd like to punch you in the face -*oblivious* Yeah, I'm used to people being too intimidated to say what they really mean. That ain't me. You know what the world needs more of? People like me to take a stand. Are you sure -I knew you'd agree so I figured I'd give you a shot at bouncing some ideas, I dunno. We don't have someone looking at the big picture. Dare I say, I feel like a grunt even when I'm the main event. Ya don't say -The nerve, right? Some alien overlords treat me like I'm liability when I'm the biggest asset they got *Whispers again* just biggest ass* -Oh man, I must be going deaf, you say somethin? You know doc, you're alright. You know how to listen. You're not like all the others that want to talk down to me or beat me to a pulp. I heard about people like you. You got…whadja call it… Common sense? -No…you actually think about people. Nobody is really brave or stupid enough to do that unless they have a ginormous heart or they're a genius or they're trying to get their head ripped off or something. You just take it all in, waiting for the right time, then BAM you say just the right thing. You told me everything I'll ever need to know in one session. It's awesome. I could do this all day! But I didn't -Oh don't go with the false modesty. This is worth ten times what you charge. I'm tellin all the guys about you. I'll have you on speed dial. All day e'ery day! I don't -Just wait till the guardians learn I really am as badass as I said all along, and I got a doctor to back me up. I wouldn't -Right, need to play that card close to the vest. Damn, you're smart. Well, that's about all I can stand of this. Gonna go catch the O's game, gotta case of Natty Bo's waitin' for me. See ya ‘round Doc! *leaves* *sigh* Why do I even care about jerks like him so much? It's like I'm a magnet for these hard luck cases..

And why didn't Guy Gardener make an appearance in this battle? Tune in to find out. Thank you to our friend Darren Soto for joining the conversation. You can find Darren on Instagram: @the.soto.

The Green Lantern franchise was dead on arrival. The source material didn't help. Between seven universe-spanning super-groups, 80 years' worth of rules, prophecies, and retcons, and no less than seven different versions of the main character (Alan Scott, Hal Jordan, Kyle Rayner, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, Simon Baz, and Jessica Cruz), the comics are over-stuffed and over-complicated. Yet the general public knows barely two of its characters (plus an evil space cloud, if they paid attention to the one notorious bomb Hollywood managed to produce). We're gonna reboot the sh*t out of this.

Jace and Rocky from Comic Boom are here to chat about the DC Comics releases for the week of September 1st 2021. It's a big week with the end of Infinite Frontier and multiple Batman, Green Lantern and Suicide Squad books. Join us for all the in depth breakdowns.   Swamp Thing #7 -  In Rocky's favorite DC title this week, we see the beginning of how Levi Kamei was chosen as the latest avatar of the green and how that ties in so closely to his relationship with his family. Plus writer Ram V explores the age old question of progress versus tradition. How moving forward with innovation is often times in conflict with respecting the past. All this, plus the Suicide Squad is still hot on the heels of Swamp Thing. Writer - Ram V, Artist - Mike Perkins, Color Artist - Mike Spicer, Letterer - Aditya Bidikar   Suicide Squad 2021 Annual #1 -  If you had your doubts that Superboy would ever work with Amanda Waller, you aren't alone. This annual puts it all on the table as we see just how far Waller has gone and will go to get what she wants. Rick Flagg has known this for quite some time himself and it seems he is finally going to do something about it. Could this be the beginning of the end for "The Wall"? One can only hope. Writer - Robbie Thompson, Artists - Eduardo Pansica, Julio Ferreira & Dexter Soy, Color Artist - Chris Sotomayor, Letterer - Wes Abbott   Suicide Squad #7 -  Hot on the heels of the team discovering just how Amanda Waller got her own Superboy for the team, Waller is now sending the team to hell. Their mission is to recover the Rock of Eternity, but their new teammate and teleporter, Ambush Bug, seems more intent on warning the team about what their future might hold if the keep following Waller's Orders. Meanwhile is seems clear to everyone, support staff, subordinates & the squad themselves that Amanda Waller has gone out on her own and is attempting to operate with impunity. Writer - Robbie Thompson, Penciller - Eduardo Pansica, Inker - Julio Ferreira, Color Artist - Marcelo Maiolo, Letterer - Wes Abbott   Blue & Gold #2 - Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse for our two favorite heroes, Ted Kord has been fired & removed from Kord Industries just as he was about to get the corporation to sponsor Blue Beetle and Booster Gold. To make matters worse, before Ted can even let Booster know, the constantly self=promoting super hero is already making the announcement that he and Blue Beetle are available to Joe Q Public for help with any and all needs. Writer - Dan Jurgens, Artist - Ryan Sook, Letterer - Rob Leigh   Green Lantern #6 - We see the attack on New Korugar from a different perspective as Jo Mullein arrives to smooth things over with Sinestro as Simon Baz attempts to get Teen Lantern under control. Meanwhile we learn about the threat of the Gold Centurions in the Dark Sector, but just as John Stewart us about to launch a rescue mission to save Kilowog and the other de-powered lanterns, he discovers a spy in their midst. Just who is Lonar of the New Gods and what does he want? Writer - Geoffrey Thorne, Artists - Marco Santucci & Tom Raney, Color Artist - Michael Atiyeh, Letterer - Simon Bowland   Green Lantern 2021 Annual #1 - Last we saw Jessica Cruz she was taking out three Yellow Lanterns and being offered a yellow power ring herself. Well, it seems she took the ring up on its offer, even if it was just so she could use it to return home. However, along the way, when she stops on New Korugar to return both the rings and the three defeated members of the Sinestro Corp, she is faced with a tough decision, give up the ring and be powerless to help her fellow de-powered Green Lanterns or keep it and become part of a corps that terrorizes the galaxy in an attempt to control it. What Jessica doesn't count on is getting a chance to use the ring and realize that fear can be a useful tool and not in the way you might expect. If anyone knows fear it's Jessica and she may be leading the Yellow Lantern Corps before you know it. Writer - Ryan Cady, Artist - Sami Basri & Tom Derenick, Color Artist - Hi-Fi, Letterer - Rob Leigh   Infinite Frontier #6 - We learn that upon the recreation of the multiverse all the versions of Darkseid have been combined into one, powering up this last remaining mad god to unprecedented levels. So while the Flash manages to escape and the Justice Incarnate team is seemingly victorious for now, they all know that Darkseid has only just started to plot how he will take over the multiverse. It may fall on the shoulders of Justice Incarnate to save the day once again, but Barry Allen may have found an unexpected ally as, Pariah, from the original Crisis on Infinite Earths returns. Writer - Joshua Williamson, Artist - Xermanico, Color Artist - Romulo Fajardo Jr, Letterer - Tom Napolitano   Batman Catwoman #7 -  This issue brings the incredibly talented Liam Sharp on for art duties while the pacing of the story begins to speed up. All the separate storylines are starting to come together just as Selina & Bruce's daughter is asking some difficult questions about the relationship between her mother and father. Questions we as readers may have been thinking ourselves.  Writer - Tom King, Artist - Liam Sharp, Letterer - Clayton Cowles   Suicide Squad: Get Joker #1 - It's a bit hard to saw just what the narrative is here. We saw Amanda Waller meet her demise last issue and the detonator for the neck bombs fall into the hands of the Joker. Rather than have that force the squad into action, they choose to stay back and wait for the Joker to come to them, but when he does, it's now entirely clear what he wants. Writer - Brian Azzarello, Artist - Alex Maleev, Color Artist - Matt Hollingsworth, Letterer - Jared K. Fletcher   Batman #112 - Fear State gets underway properly as Batman is able to escape from Scarecrow, but it's too late to stop the plans that have started to unfold. As Oracle informs Batman that all her systems have been compromised, he attempts to purge his system from the new fear chemicals the Scarecrow affected him with. Can Batman gather his Bat-Family in time to stop Scarecrow? And will it matter since Simon Saint and the Magistrate have started their maneuvering to take over Gotham City as well. Writer - James Tynion IV, Artist - Jorge Jimenez, Color Artist - Tomeu Morey, Letterer - Clayton Cowles   Crush & Lobo #4 - Maybe all it took for Crush to stop sulking and bemoaning her life was to end up in prison in place of her father. It certainly seems to have sharpened her concentration as she quickly devises not only a plan on how to be identified as her true self, but how to convince the warden to let her go and capture her father. There is a BIG showdown brewing and we can't wait to see father and daughter throw down!   Black Manta #1 - As Black Manta works to recover items stolen from him, we begin to see that powerful forces are at work. Does Manta have what it takes to harness these forces on his own? We've never seen him in the magical corner of the DCU before, but the power he craves may lead him in that direction. Writer - Chuck Brown, Artist - Valentine de Landro, Color Artist - Marissa Louise, Letterer - Clayton Cowles   Nice House On The Lake #4 - The inhabitants of the house have learned that anything they desire just about they desire can be theirs. In a way the fact that they have survived the end of the world, can have their hearts desire and live in a paradise could mean they are in heaven. However, this heaven can also be seen as a prison, they are certainly not free, they have lost loved ones and the final piece of the puzzle could also be seen as a blessing or a curse. Just check out the final page of the issue and then decide for yourself. Writer - James Tynion IV, Artist - Alvaro Martinez-Bueno, Color Artist - Jordie Bellaire, Letterer - Andworld Design

I have always been a huge Green Lantern fan. I didn't even mind the movie (they should've used a better villain). The idea of all the different color Lantern Corps reflecting the spectrum of emotions is an idea I love. I even like the newer Green Lanterns, Simon Baz, Jessica Cruz, and Keli Quintela. There hasn't been a good Lantern series since Red Lanterns was cancelled. Imagine how happy I was to learn that there is another Green Lantern title with John Stewart as the main man. Watch my review to see if Green Lantern #1 meets my lofty expectations. Publisher Description (W) Geoffrey Thorne (A) Dexter Soy (CA) Bryan Hitch As this new Green Lantern series begins, the newly formed United Planets and the Guardians of the Universe hold an intergalactic summit to decide who can best serve and protect the cosmos from danger. With the majority of Green Lanterns called back to Oa, John Stewart arrives alongside Teen Lantern Keli Quintela, whose powerful gauntlet could be one of the most powerful and unstable weapons in the universe. With the entire landscape of the universe in flux, is this the end of the Green Lantern Corps...or a new beginning?  SUBSCRIBE to watch more videos like this one!

Hey guys! It's another watch along commentary track for you, for this edition. Frank, Kristina, and Geoff are sitting down to watch Green Lantern, Starring Ryan Reynolds, Black Lively, Mark Strong, Peter Saarsgard, Tim Robbins, Taika Waititi, and Angela Bassett.

We had a lot of fun during this commentary, and made fun of this movie a lot haha.

Welcome to the place where I get to let my geek flag fly and talk about all things geek. Basically a fuzzy guide to life, the universe, and everything but mostly geek stuff. This is where I look into the world of geekdom and some geek news, comics, The Simpsons, Star Wars, and whatever randomness finds its way onto the recording. Over four episodes, Danny the Deuce and Blue have joined me to discuss representation and diversity in superheroes. Adding to our discussions of 77 heroes representing diversity in comics, we're back with 17 more. It has been so much fun to discuss comics as an important medium of representation and cover diverse heroes that matter so much, especially in today’s divided world. This edition of the diversiverse goodness includes the following heroes: Apache Chief, Damien Wayne, Simon Baz, Jessica Cruz, Hogun the Grim, Lunella Lafayette (Moon Girl), Nico Minoru (Runaways), Daisy Johnson (Quake), Koi Boi (Ken Shiga), The Black Racer, Namor, Maya Lopez (Echo), Shatterstar, Glenn Rhee, Komodo, The Prowler, Riri Williams (Ironheart), and more!

Hey Poozers! We are go-a to oa! With the recent announcement of the character line up for the upcoming and highly anticipated Green Lantern HBO Max streaming series. The four of us sit down to tell you everything you need to know about these ring slingers, and the shows creative team. Join us for this Mogo sized good time!

Green Lantern Series in-development and what to expect from the Green Lantern Mythos. The dynamic duo of Robbie Landis and Ben Morse is back once again for another episode of the Other Identity. The Other Identity is a podcast about exploring the culture created by comic books. This week Robbie and Ben are joined by two special guests: Nick Duke and Greg Phillips, former podcasters and Green Lantern experts. They join Robbie and Ben to talk about the Green Lantern Mythos and the in-development HBO Max Series. The Legend of the Green Lanterns Ben invites his two friends Greg and Nick to talk Green Lantern with him and Robbie. One of the things that set the Green Lanterns apart from other heroes, super teams, and families as Nick points out, is that anyone can be a Green Lantern. That there are always thousands of Green Lanterns that represent an unending cast of diverse races, ideologies, and creeds. The cast talks about their favorite green lanterns and some of the best stories for new readers to get into the series. From the original Alan Scott to the greatest Green Lantern of all time Hal Jordan. The Green Lantern corp is filled with dozens of amazing characters. One of the strengths it has over Batman or Superman is that if you're not into one character, there are so many others that may interest you. Kyle Raynor, Guy Gardener, John Stewart, or Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz. If you're not a Green Lantern fan yet, take another look until you find one you like. The HBO Max Series The round table of Green Lantern experts also takes some time to talk about the forthcoming Green Lantern series coming to HBO Max. Variety released a statement with some of the plot details of the upcoming series. It mentions how the show won't focus on a single Green Lantern, but many of them, including new characters. Some of those Lanterns include Guy Gardener, Alan Scott, Jessica Cruz, and Simon Baz by name. It also talks about how Sinestro, the former Green Lantern and one of the most iconic villains of the series, will be featured as well. The show will focus on the history and origins of the Green Lantern corp. It's currently unclear if fan-favorite characters John Stewart and Hal Jordan will make an appearance or be referenced in the first season. But the Green Lantern Roundtable doesn't think that will be much of an issue. Subscribe to The Other Identity on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Tighefighter and GhostFighterX1. Boys how the heck are you? Streaming News Twitch staff accused of tricking streamer into promoting brands  Twitch streamers are speaking out against the broadcasting platform for attempting to promote brands within individual chats. Content creators are slamming the practice, especially since they have no control of removing the adverts from their channel.  “Creators beware! Twitch staff is now going around donating spare change in an attempt to trick you into shouting out brands without proper compensation. Don't fall for it,” The Black Hokage said. Twitch partner and viral streamer ‘negaoryx' responded: “Which is great, because we can't moderate anything said by Twitch staff in chat, so we can't even purge it… great…” There is a function that lets people ‘/Clear' their channels messaging log, which lets “broadcasters and chat moderators to completely wipe the previous chat history.” This feature doesn't apply to messages from Twitch staff accounts. Ghost - Do you think this is a twitch strategy or a rogue employee? Twitch seems to have picked up most of Mixer's streamers  Streamers seem to have flocked to Twitch from Mixer after the Microsoft-owned live-streaming service announced plans to shut down in June. A new report shows that Twitch's share of hours broadcast on major live-streaming platforms jumped up by over 14 percentage points this quarter, taking away the nearly identical just over 14 percent market share that Mixer previously held. That Twitch won out is particularly notable because Facebook made a serious effort to pick up Mixer's streamers. It partnered with Mixer to help streamers get set up on the new platform, and Mixer started advertising Facebook Gaming during its final month online. Mixer's website still forwards to Facebook Gaming today. Evidently, that wasn't enough to convince Mixer streamers to pick yet another underdog in the streaming space. “Hours streamed” is a useful metric for determining where streamers are spending their time, but it's not necessarily the metric that matters. These platforms are primarily competing for viewership, and in that area, Twitch actually lost some ground. The report now puts Twitch at 63.6 percent market share, down from 67.6 percent. That should be particularly concerning because both YouTube and Facebook Gaming grew this quarter; Mixer made up only 1.4 percent of hours streamed, so these services are growing at a faster pace than Twitch. Tighe - Why do you think the closing of mixer is benefitting twitch more than the promoted facebook gaming? Twitch streamer Erobb mortified after being sent poop from viewer Streaming is one of the most interactive forms of entertainment, as viewers can influence their favorite content creator's experience live during a broadcast. However, this format is also extremely attractive to devious viewers looking to troll streamers in front of their audience. That is what happened to ‘erobb221' when he was sent a bag of poop. The Twitch personality sank into his chair and put his hand over his face after holding the disgusting fanmail. His partner told him, “I'm going to the post office and closing the PO box tomorrow!” before scolding the troll who sent it. “We have a baby who could get sick from your dirty poop in a bag!” Erobb's viewers continued to tell him to open the item up to see what it smelled like. “I'm not opening this bag, Brittany! I'm not.” Later on, he told his audience that he refused to open the bag because he does not “condone” the prank. Dainty - Could we market poop in a bag?Gaming News Amazon has canceled Crucible, its free-to-play multiplayer shooter that had already been returned to closed betaAmazon has officially canceled Crucible, its free-to-play multiplayer shooter. It's the end of a rocky journey for the game, which was first launched in May after years in development before being put back into closed beta in July. “We very much appreciate the way that our fans have rallied around our efforts, and we've loved seeing your responses to the changes we've made over the last few months, but ultimately we didn't see a healthy, sustainable future ahead [for] Crucible,” the Crucible team said in a blog post. If you're in the closed beta, you'll still be able to play the game in some form for a short while. The developers will be hosting a “a final playtest and community celebration” in the next few weeks, according to the blog. Once that's done, matchmaking will be disabled, but you'll be able to play custom games (which are expected to be available in the coming days) until 3PM ET on November 9th. Ghost - What do you think this says about the state of the Amazon titles if they are shutting this game down almost immediately? Epic judge permanently restrains Apple from blocking Unreal Engine, but won't force Fortnite Fortnite won't be coming back to the App Store any time soon. On Friday, Judge Yvonne Gonzales Rogers refused to grant Epic Games a preliminary injunction against Apple that would force the game developer to reinstate Fortnite on the App Store, while simultaneously granting an injunction that keeps Apple from retaliating against the Unreal Engine, which Epic also owns (PDF). In other words, we now have a permanent version of the temporary restraining order ruling from last month. Today's decision still prevents Apple from revoking Epic's developer tools in a way that could have harmed its broader business. “Epic Games and Apple are at liberty to litigate this action for the future of the digital frontier, but their dispute should not create havoc to bystanders. Thus, the public interest weighs overwhelmingly in favor of Unreal Engine and the Epic Affiliates,” said the judge, keeping Epic's Unreal Engine business from being harmed. Tighe - In this latest development we are seeing a balanced approach by the judge. How do you feel this plays out? Sony Confirms PS4 to PS5 Save Transfers, Reveals Incompatible PS4 Games  In a new PlayStation blog post, Sony has elaborated on the upcoming PS4/PS5 compatibility features. As revealed in the Support Page, save data can be transferred from PS4 to PS5, but it will be a developer decision. Cloud saves are also available for PS Plus members, and PS5 customers will find that their digital library will transfer once accounts are synched. Streaming PS4 games to PS5 or PS Now will also be available, but will not benefit from a performance boost some PS4 titles will get when played natively on the PS5. On another note Sony is also discontinuing store support for older systems. Dainty - How do you feel about this backwards compatibility issue?Entertainment News ‘Green Lantern' Series Gets Greenlight at HBO Max, Seth Grahame-Smith and Marc Guggenheim to Write  HBO Max has given out a series order to “Green Lantern,” Variety has learned. Based on the DC Comics property, the show was first announced as being in development last year. Plot details are now available for the first time, however. The show will depict the adventures of a multitude of Lanterns, including Guy Gardner, Jessica Cruz, Simon Baz and Alan Scott — Earth's first Green Lantern,  and many more. The series will also include fan favorites such as Sinestro and Kilowog, and will also introduce new heroes to the ranks of the Green Lantern Corps. HBO Max has ordered 10 one-hour episodes. The series will be co-written and executive produced by Seth Grahame-Smith and Marc Guggenheim, with Grahame-Smith serving as showrunner. Berlanti Productions will produce in association with Warner Bros. Television, where Berlanti is under a rich overall deal. Guggenheim has taken part in many dc properties including show runner on ARROW. Ghost - Were you a fan of the arrowverse on CW? I am excited to see dc take another run at GL since the Ryan reynolds  Netflix is testing a feature that lets you switch off its annoying "still watching?" pop-up Netflix is testing a feature that I am referring to as a “sick day function” — an option to turn off that pesky pop-up that appears after watching three episodes in a row of something to ask if you're still watching. The new feature looks like it's been in testing for a while in certain regions, and a Netflix spokesperson confirmed to The Verge today that the feature is still in testing mode. Over the recent weeks, however, excitement over the feature has hit Twitter and TikTok. It is exciting! A box appears that asks if you're still watching or if you want to “play without asking again.” Hypothetically, if you're in the middle of rewatching Supernatural and don't want Netflix to interrupt you every three episodes, hitting “play without asking again” will allow you to binge to your heart's content. Tighe - I often feel personally attacked by Netflix for this feature. How do you feel about it going away? Kingdom Come: Deliverance Being Developed as Live-Action Series or Film   Variety reports that the project will be a collaboration between Warhorse Studios and Wild Sheep Content, with Barmack and Warhorse CEO Martin Frývaldský producing the adaptation, which will take the form of either a live-action series or film. Barmack and Frývaldský are said to be in the process of reaching out to potential writers and directors to expand the creative team. Barmack spoke about the adaptable nature of video game properties and the ways in which they can deliver "amazing, non-U.S. worlds that are locally relevant, but with a regional and global popularity that streamers are looking for as they become more and more global." "It's especially interesting that video games with heavy narrative, like The Witcher and Kingdom Come: Deliverance, are uniquely adaptable, and local but global all at once," Barmack said, referencing Kingdom Come: Deliverance, which was developed by Warhorse Studios and published by Deep Silver for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The Kingdom Come: Deliverance adaptation joins a growing slate of video game movies and TV series' that have been announced, planned, or are currently in production right now, including Amazon's Fallout TV series, Netflix's Cyberpunk 2077 anime, and Sega's live-action Yakuza movie, which is being produced by Erik Barmack, Roberto Grande and Joshua Long. Dainty - I really enjoyed the beginning of this game that I got to play. They went to painstaking lengths to make it historically accurate. How do you think this will transfer to the small screen?BOLD PREDICTIONS 1. Party Animals will be the next Fall Guys on full Release2.

Pablo Peixoto do Qu4tro Coisas fala sobre o rumor de que uma nova série do lanterna Verde está para ser anuncuiada na DC Fandome. Conheça o elenco e todas as informações que vazaram. Há rumores de que o ator Michael Kenneth Williams, do Boardwalk Empire, fará o papel de Sinestro na série Lanterna Verde que virá para a HBO Max. Este boato, recolhido pela Cosmic Book News, vem do 4chan e do Reddit. Grãos de sal à parte, CBN observa que o momento desse vazamento de elenco é conveniente com a DC FanDome chegando e as dispensas ocorrendo em toda a WarnerMedia, incluindo na DC Comics e DC Universe. Se for escalado, ele vai no lugar de Mark Strong, que interpretou Sinestro no filme do Lanterna Verde de 2011. O último mergulho de Strong nos filmes de quadrinhos foi ele interpretando o Dr. Sivana no Shazam !. Não que isso importe, a série HBO Max acontecerá em outra Terra e linha do tempo no Multivers O mesmo vazamento diz que James Marsden está sendo considerado para Hal Jordan e Linda Cardellini está de olho no papel de Carol Ferris - interpretado pela última vez em live-action por Blake Lively (a menos que você conte a Major Carrie Farris de Christina Wren em Man of Steel). Marsden estrelou este ano Sonic the Hedgehog e pode ser reconhecido para sempre por interpretar Ciclope nos filmes X-Men da Fox. Cardellini é a estrela de Freaks and Geeks e Velma nos filmes Scooby-Doo. Mais recentemente, ela interpretou a esposa de Hawkeye em Vingadores: Endgame. A última parte do elenco envolve Jovan Adepo (Watchmen da HBO). Ele é mencionado em referência a John Stewart, programado para ser um dos Lanterns do Setor 2814 da série. Adepo interpretou o jovem Will Reeves / Hooded Justice em Watchmen, que o show revelou ser negro e gay. Louis Gossett Jr. interpretou o Reeves mais velho e aposentado. O Lanterna Verde da HBO Max será live-action e está confirmado como ocorrendo em diferentes linhas do tempo - passado e presente - na Terra, bem como no espaço. Kevin Reilly, chefe de conteúdo da HBO Max, fornece atualizações sobre Lanternas Verdes e Abrams Justice League Dark Sinestro devia estar com o anel amarelo e já brigou com a Liga. Sua origem será contada em flashbacks. Também pode haver uma adaptação do enredo Sinestro Corps War em algum ponto. No início, suspeitou-se que John Stewart e Hal Jordan seriam substituídos pelas criações Simon Baz e Jessica Cruz de Geoff Johns (com quem Diane Guerrero, do Doom Patrol, expressou o desejo de interpretar). Também pensava-se que Jordan e Stewart estavam sendo salvos para o filme e poderiam aparecer na série mais tarde Não está claro se um filme ainda está acontecendo. Scooper Mikey Sutton alegou que Jordan e Stewart não só seriam o foco da série, mas, além disso, o longa-metragem do projeto de estimação de Johns - Green Lantern Corps estava sendo arquivado.

Today we talk about some more notable Green Lanterns such as Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz, as well as a run-down of the other colors of power rings in the Green Lantern mythos! Media specifically mentioned in today's episode: -Green Lantern (2011) #13 (Simon Baz) -Justice League (2011) #31 (Jessica Cruz) -Green Lantern: Emerald Knights -Blackest Night (2009) -Guy Gardner Star Sapphire (well, and Red Lantern) -Dark Knights: Death Metal #1 -Lords of Empyre: Emperor Hulkling #1 -Humble Book Bundle: Be the Change Thanks to Victoria Watkins for our icon!

The dynamic duo of Robbie Landis and Ben Morse are back once again for another episode of the Other Identity.

This weeks episode is all about family as the guys talk about how DC uses the 'family' of super heroes compared to Marvel. The Other Identity keeps is all in the family. Robbie and Ben talk about some of the titles they've been reading lately. The Rebirth Era Green Lanterns, starring Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz, has had Robbie's undivided attention. It's also let him to pick Ben's brain about the idea of 'family' in comic books. DC tends to lean into the idea of a 'super hero family' where a group of heroes all share the same power set. Marvel on the other hand, tends to take a different approach when passing on the super hero mantle. Finally, Ben and Robbie discuss the best 'families' between Marvel and DC. Who does it better and how do they stack up to one another. Who would you put at the number one best family in comics? Take a listen and let us know what you think! Don't forget you engage with both Ben and Robbie all week long on social media.

Jessica Cruz gets the worst instructor ever while Volthoom plots revenge eons in the making.Affiliate link included. Transcript below:Jessica Cruz gets the worst training officer possible. We'll tell you all about it in Green Lantern Volume Four: The First Ring, straight ahead.Welcome to the Classy Comics Podcast where we search for the best comics in the universe. from Boise, Idaho here is your host, Adam Graham. When DC Rebirths launched there were two different Green Lantern titles. There was Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps which focused on the better known Green Lanterns out having space opera adventures. Meanwhile, there were two Green Lanterns who were stationed on earth: Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz, and they were forced to work as partners because Hal Jordan gave them only one power battery between them. At first they clashed but then they became friends as well as partners, working together and growing through the first three books. At the end of the third book Jon Stewart recalled them to Mogo for training without really giving them much chance to prepare. It's kind of a dubious move because they really could have been in the middle of something when he just whisked them away. But in the first three Issues of this book they do arrive on Mogo and undergo training. For some, and this is a mere matter of you learning to use more imagination when he uses his power ring, and for that he's trained by Kyle Rayner. Rayner had been an artist before he became a Green Lantern, and so this is a really fun section. The art throughout this book is really good and really expressive, fitting the unique power set of the Green Lanterns in terms of being able to make these will power constructs, as well as showing all of this majestic stuff in space and the different species. It's particularly fun as Simon has to work his way through a maze that Kyle created with his ring, and it's just a pretty fun battle. Jessica faces a bigger challenge. Prior to getting her ring she suffered from anxiety; so much so that she couldn't even leave her apartment. But she's shown marked improvement and has achieved some key victories as a Green Lantern also in finding on the side of the Justice League having helped take down several heavy hitters. So of course when she gets to Mogo they take away her Green Lantern symbol because she is in training and hasn't even passed her basic training. This but having this whole saving earth several times thing, they're not going to stop that from standing in the way of the rules. To top this off, for a training officer Jessica gets Guy Gardner – probably the worst possible person you could give to someone who has had some emotional challenges. As well Gardner definitely has his good side, he can be a pretty big jerk when you're first getting to know him and that's the case here as he makes her absolutely miserable throughout the entire training period. She manages to hang on partially with some very kind advice from Killowog, the longtime Green Lantern veteran who'd really does play that sort of sage-veteran role in giving her just some really good inspiration. And it's a beautiful scene as he tells a Lantern legend and reminds her that she has what it takes. And she does, of course, pass training – though after she decks Guy Gardner; and who could blame her? Of course, while our heroes are going through training that's not actually the most important thing that's going on in these first three Issues. This is all setting up a bigger story and part of this has been set up throughout the Green Lantern's story, and I strongly recommend if you haven't read the earlier volumes to pick them up. But there are a couple key things going on: first, we're seeing some people who were recruited as the earliest Lanterns at the very dawn of t...

These are the questions driving the discussion and these four panelists are among the best equipped on the internet to lead the conversation! Enjoy!

Hello DC Nationites and welcome back to the DC Nation Podcast Season 1 Finale!!! Why is this a finale you might ask? Well, because we are finally going to be closing shop on our DC Comics Summer Comic Book Reviews and will be transitioning back to Cartoon Network's DC Nation Block next week (Week 29)! But, until next week, Dan & I come back to wrap up the month of September where we cover DC's "Zero Month". The zero issues that we cover on this podcast include: Green Lantern (the first appearance of new GL of 2814 "Simon Baz"), Justice League (which is a whole issue devoted to the JL's amazing back-story (and soon to be member) SHAZAM!), Earth-2 (similar to JL 0, but this time talking about one-time Mr. Terrific aka Terry Sloan), Supergirl, Detective Comics, Batman, Nightwing, Red Hood and The Outlaws, and Batgirl! Sadly, at the time of recording, the zero issues for Aquaman, Batman: The Dark Knight (continuing Batman's origin), Superman (starring Jor-El!), and Teen Titans (covering Tim Drake's origin as Red Robin) were not available, so we did not record on them (although I read them and they are all worth the buy!). But that's not all folks! We also cover Smallville 11x2 Detective Part 5, where Clark interrogates Bruno Mannheim as Batman and his loyal sidekick plan their next move! All this and more in the latest DC Nation Podcast!!!
