Florida Congressional candidate Alan Grayson, and former Congressman who lost his seat in the last election, sent out the following e-mail earlier today; The movie Green Lantern opened on Friday, to mixed reviews.  Maybe the reviews would have been better if the movie had included this powerful exchange, from Green Lantern[...]

When watching Green Lantern, and we know many of you will,  waiting for the extra scene during the credits, make a note of what isn't there. No mention of the original Green Lantern creator, Marty Nodell, or its writer, Bill Finger. No mention of those who created the Hal Jordan Green Lantern, John Broome and Gil Kane[...]

This is the image that is appearing at the end of the credits to the Green Lantern movie, when shown in America, according to CBR, as part of a marketing strategy that includes comics retailers getting movie-themed promotional materials and  preview screening tickets. Bleeding Cool has also reported on upcoming plans to run television advertising alongside[...]

If you're calling 1700 Broadway this morning, and no editor is taking your call, don't worry, you haven't been canned from the DC Relaunch and no one wants to tell you. It's just that all the people left in the DC New York building have gone on a day trip, bussed out to a private screening[...]

The BBC report that the Spitzer heliocentric orbiting telescope has taken a photograph of a ring-shaped nebula, RCW 120. The colours used illustrate the

This was the day we talked about, worried over, and rooted for Green Lantern to be good  It's gotten several early bad reviews, but when you hear that, in the back of your mind you're always thinking… what do critics know about comic book movies? So the debate has raged today Bleeding Cool reviewer Michael[...]

But I can't. Our narrow common ground for superhero movies is somewhere in the region of The Incredibles, the bowdlerised Ultimate Avengers animations and the much maligned 'not dark enough' Fantastic 4 movies. Green Lantern is crafted from the ground up as a daft, entertaining romp that's a hell of a lot closer to Rise of the[...]

"Die, Rupert Murdoch, die!" The British newspapers published by News Group Newspapers of News International, itself a subsidiary of Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, who own Twentieth Century Fox, was very kind to X-Men First Class, as Private Eye recently pointed out, with uncritical star interview after interview. For Warners' upcoming Green Lantern movie, they have been less[...]

On the eve of the release of the Green Lantern movie, I think it's particularly appropriate to note that comics would be a different world without him. Update: Adams' personal facebook page indicates his birthday is June 15, so perhaps we're a couple days early  But no matter…!  Happy birthday, sir. Here's a gallery of some[...]

In an intriguingly timed stunt, DC have handed the three mkssing covers to Red Lanterns #1, Green Lantern Corps #1 and Green Lantern: The New Lanterns #1 to Newsarama, CBR and Comics Alliance respectively. So Bleeding Cool decided to nick them all and put them on one page. Say, aren't Marvel meant to be announcing something today?[...]

And it's not even an official Green Lantern partner Brilliant, pure dead brilliant Dodgy politics obviously, but hey This is advertising. This, by the way, is called a benefit-led commercial, rather than a feature-led commercial Write that down, we'll be talking about it tomorrow There may be a test. And it's not even an official Green[...]

This is just a Green Lantern press release that Warner Bros put out yesterday, but like the X-Men Skywriting promotion I find it kinda cool, potentially. Ah, you guys in the major markets have all the fun Somebody better send me a picture of this if it's cool. In celebration of the June 17th theatrical[...]

On the Source blog and in an interview with Associated Press, DC have announced four ongoing Green Lantern #1 books to start in September. They include the multi-colour lantern Tyler Kirkham book that Bleeding Cool reported previously. Green Lantern #1 by Geoff Johns, Doug Mahnke and Christian Alamy. Green Lantern Corps #1 starring  Guy Gardner, John Stewart[...]

Yeah, I think it's probably been a pretty fun week to work at DC Comics. And really, it's been an interesting week in the industry in general.  Just today

Jim Lee has posted his pencils to the JLA image that was given to USA Today, to prove that, yes, he did include the Green Lantern ring – and presumably inker Scott Williams missed it out! Still no explanation of the Green Lantern Penile Gatling Gun however Shame, that's where we presumed his ring was… [...]

Michael Moran writes for Bleeding Cool: Things that we know never work: Movie tie-in video games (except Goldeneye) and superhero videogames (except Arkham Asylum). It's with some trepidation then that I took a look at Green Lantern: Rise Of The Manhunters and Transformers: Dark Of The Moon, The Game. The people behind these games have a couple of[...]

At the main stage in the MCM London Expo, watching their world exclusive first look at the "World Of Green Lantern" Expect lots of aliens being shown in swirly CGI and what not. Will you be there? Or will you be relying on Brendon coming up with numerous synonyms for "green"? So I know where Brendon[...]

Speaking of Green Lantern marketing, as we were just yesterday, I must say I'm almost disappointed to see that Verizon, Google, or someone of that nature hasn't really gone for it with GL licensing and renamed something like 4G network or social service Mogo  I say almost because of course the creators might disagree[...]

So Green Lantern receives a toast at his local bar hangout from Elektra, Spider-Man, Wolverine, Superman, Kick Ass, all the superheroes who have now got movies, welcoming a newcomer into their membership. And Hawkman who is still as bitter as they come.

I don't know how many passes there are. I don't know how long it will take until they have gone. But, courtesy of Golden Apple Comics in Los Angeles,

Oh sure, they may have lost some sales as a result, but they lost their competitors more. And today, DC publish all three Green Lantern titles in one day, three chapters of the same War Of The Lanterns story, told and drawn by different people And all with the Green Lantern movie logo across the top[...]

This is the cover to Strange Adventures, published by Vertigo today. And here's the solicited version. See the difference? Yes, that's right, logo, publisher logo, price, credits, cover text and… a massive Green Lantern ad slapped on the top. While this looks fine on the Green Lantern books published today, and okay I suppose on the cover of[...]
