While today's news was largely dominated by the surprising revelation that
Geoff Johns plans to
step down as "Green Lantern" writer after nine years, Johns may not be the only creator ending his tenure in the "Green Lantern" line later this year. According to
DC Comics' May solicitations for the "Green Lantern"
family of ongoing series, every creator associated with a "Green Lantern" book will end their run in May with the conclusion of "Wrath of the First Lantern," including
Peter Tomasi and Fernando Pasarin on "Green Lantern Corps,"
Tony Bedard on "Green Lantern: New Guardians" and
Peter Milligan on "Red Lanterns."
DC has not given any indication of who will replace Johns on the main "Green Lantern" title, nor the manner of creative shifts that will occur following "Wrath of the First Lantern" in what will likely be a massive change-up in the creative talent behind the "Green Lantern" family of books.
Check out the solicitations and covers for "Green Lantern" #20, "Green Lantern Corps" #20, "Green Lantern: New Guardians" #20 and "Red Lanterns" #20 below.
