The Emerald twilight is coming! Geoff Johns and Doug Manke will conclude what should rightfully be hailed as the modern Green Lantern Saga with a huge 64-page Green Lantern #20 this May. It all began with Green Lantern: Rebirth #1.

When you think of iconic creator/character marriages that made comic book history you must include Geoff Johns and Green Lantern!

Here’s what Johns said about the conclusion on The Source:

I’m obviously ending my run with a little sadness because Continue reading Geoff Johns Green Lantern Era Ending

Brian Michael Bendis and Chris Bachalo relaunch Uncanny X-Men this week.

At one point I thought Scott would be on the road to redemption but now we know Cyclops is not trying to make up for his actions in Avengers vs. X-Men.

Magneto, Emma Frost and Magik join Scott on his missions to recruit young mutants and protect them from a world that fears and hates them.

“You will discover in the very first issue of ALL-NEW X-MEN exactly where Scott Summers’ head is at. Of all the X-Men that feel it is their job to further the legacy of Charles Xavier, no one feels it more strongly than Scott Summers,” Bendis told Marvel.com.

“Scott Summers himself is not only trying to save these kids but he is trying to train them and Continue reading UNCANNY X-MEN Revolution Begins!
