It looks like this isn't just being dismissed as personality conflicts. WB is investigating Whedon, Johns, and Berg.

The XM statue is a good indicator that she's resonating with adults as well as kids. It carries a $600 price tag, so there had to be some solid market research that it was going to sell before putting out such a premium piece.Originally posted by JohnMc View PostShe's not going anywhere. She's a pivotal face in the DC Girls show and merchandise line. Being partially created by EVS wasn't enough of the woke brigade at DC to erase her so nothing Johns can do will have her erased.
Moreover, even if there is something particularly egregious to Ray Fisher's accusations (and I highly doubt much heat comes GJ's way), that doesn't mean that DC would shed his characters/concepts with GL. Despite her dubious beginning, Arisia is still around 39 years later after her creation. If that's the case, issues like EVS's Comicsgate comments and the conditions on the set of the JL movies aren't going to cause DC to cut ties with narrative elements that will still make money for the company.

His Three Jokers starts this month. Or maybe it's out already. I wouldn't know. Ever since UCS took over from Diamond, I haven't received a single shipment.

That would take a colossal universal reboot for that to happen.Originally posted by Big Daddy Dave Skywalker View PostI'm still looking forward to a time when John's grubby fingerprints aren't still visibly all over the GL franchise.
Anybody know what the douche has been up to besides not making his deadlines or being able to fuck up the GLC with his movie script?

When Guy is making regular appearances in a book again I'll believe it. The collapse of sales hasn't made Marvel re think that strategy so I doubt DC will either.Originally posted by Trey Strain View PostDan DiDio is gone, and I think he was the one who was pushing "everything but white males" on small kids, which was a complete waste of resources. Such things might get rethought now, especially as they cause the further enriching of Johns.

Yes, including Jessica Cruz.

Marz is my favorite GL writer, possibly my all-time favorite comics writer, so I wasn't criticizing him in any way. Perish the thought. I really liked Winick's contributions to Volume 3 too. I was only trying to understand Trey's vitriol towards Johns, and if he wanted the scope of GL's world (since vol 3 is the opposite of Vol 4) to revert back the pre-Johns days.Originally posted by Michael Heide View PostThe problem wasn't Marz. The problem was Raab, who didn't know how to write Kyle and removed all of his personality (or what was left of it after Winick had gotten rid of it during his run).Last edited by Big Blue Lantern; 04-15-2021, 06:32 AM.

If there's any justice, he'll keep rotting in prison for another 30 years minimum, and swallow a shard of glass on the day he's supposed to get released.

Whatever happened to that asshole? Is he still rotting in prison?

The problem wasn't Marz. The problem was Raab, who didn't know how to write Kyle and removed all of his personality (or what was left of it after Winick had gotten rid of it during his run), trying to turn him into Hal. The book had sold fine under Marz.Originally posted by Big Blue Lantern View PostSo you want Green Lantern to revert to Ron Marz's vision of his world? Because not only was Green Lantern on the verge of cancelling prior to Marz & Banks, but I'm pretty sure DC doesn't want to call attention to a certain writer who came before him.
And I have no idea why you're desperately trying to connect Marz and Banks to the kiddie porn collector that came before them.

This broad comes off as kind of a pathetic attention whore.I'm hoping that this was just a misunderstanding.Originally posted by Space Cop View Post^In her particular case it doesn't sound criminal. Creepy, sure; but not criminal. And did he even know she wasn't 18 (though, close, btw)?
As for the Fisher comments, I still don't know what to make of them. I haven't seen any follow-up articles on that other than Gal Gadot's stunt double apparently agreeing with Fisher.Last edited by Big Blue Lantern; 07-27-2020, 03:34 AM.

I'm sure Johns will be fine. The accusation is too vague and not damning enough. He said "We can have lunch," according to this person. Furthermore, she didn't post any receipts. She just said something.
Regarding Green Lantern, one of the main reasons I opted completely out of GL is because I got tired of the glut of Earth Lanterns. I already dealt with ones I like getting ignored often, and DC added insult to injury by making even more Earth Lanterns to fight for very limited panel time and opportunities. Nowadays, I'm just like, "Do whatever you want, I don't care," and interestingly, I'm perfectly content in that position. I don't see myself going back to being a super fan of GL. Isn't worth the trouble, and the creative content they typically put out isn't up to snuff, in my opinion. Too mediocre, too boring, too disjointed...Last edited by Star-Lantern; 07-04-2020, 10:18 PM.
