DC has announced a new miniseries spinning out of Grant Morrison and Liam Sharp’s The Green Lantern series. If you’ve been reading that series and would rather not have it spoiled, it might be safer to stop reading now.
Still with us then? Cool. The new miniseries by Grant Morrison and Xermanico picks up where The Green Lantern #12 will leave off — with some sort of catastrophe that leaves the universe without the Green Lantern Corps.
“Oa is the skeleton-paved haunt of vengeful demons,” said Morrison, “And the Blackstars—a sinister cult of universal peace and harmony, involving surrender to the will of the insidious and/or possibly illuminated Controller Mu—are in the process of subjugating the universe to their creed.”
The Blackstars’ ranks include a familiar face — Hal Jordan.
“Jordan’s one of the Blackstars’ primary operatives,” continues Morrison. “He’s central, although the Cosmic Vampire Countess Belzebeth vies with him for control of the narrative in Blackstars. Hal Jordan is the kind of man who will excel in any situation, so naturally he’s an elite Blackstar in this altered-continuity.”
Look for the first issue in November.
