The new Green Lantern series will correct a theme that has plagued the franchise for many years now.
DC Dawn is the name of a reformulation that the publisher has applied to adapt each of its major franchises. That is, each of the main names in the Justice League will have its canon revised so that all properties and their basic elements are updated and better positioned in their corners – the idea is to reduce chronological confusion and establish a more consistent and modern hierarchy for the titles of each publishing line.

And one of the franchises that will get some special attention with a welcome change is the Green Lanterns. As fans know, each sector of the universe has two Corps officers to protect the population from threats. Location number 2814, where Earth is located, is revealed to be the only one that has 11 Green Lanterns.
DC even tried to justify this overpopulation by claiming that Sector 2814 faces more threats than others, and that life in the Publisher’s universe began on Earth. However, that’s too many Green Lanterns. And that, over the years, has diluted the importance and function of each, both in the exercise of function and in the stories, since it is difficult for you to dedicate plots that value the brilliance of each – it is not even possible for put them all together balanced in one saga.
From The dawn of DC Green Lanternwith the launch of Green Lantern No. 1 on May 9, the Green Lantern Corps will see changes in the leadership. The Guardians of the Universe will leave the command, which will now be in the hands of the United Planets, a body similar to the United Nations, but on a cosmic scale.
The organization will relocate many of Earth’s Green Lanterns to other sectors – and thus the problem of ring redundancy and lack of room for everyone in one storyline promises to be resolved.
Okay, but what will the human Green Lantern organization look like?
Everyone knows that the greatest of all Green Lanterns is Hal Jordan, with a prominent second group consisting of Guy Gardner, John Stewart and Kyle Rayner. Alan Scott usually stays with the Justice Society, so he shouldn’t go through major changes. Jordan and Stewart the most popular and adored by fans, should take care of our planet.
What should happen to others is still a wild card that writer Jeremy Adams promises to solve. Since Geoff Johns’ celebrated run on the franchise, no one has managed to balance stories with all of Earth’s Green Lanterns. Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz, for example, have been completely forgotten.
Soujorner “Jo” Mullein, Keli Quintela, Tai Pham, and even Jade, who isn’t exactly a Green Lantern but has the ability to use emerald willpower energy as well, are also left without much to do and don’t show up . While.
Screenwriter Jeremy Adams didn’t say much, but he was keen to say that the new distribution of the heroes and their roles should offer a wide and rich range of adventure and narrative tone. He’s even confident that the franchise will be revitalized enough to once again become one of DC’s flagships, just as it was in Geoff Johns’ spectacular period.
The Green Lanterns are like the “Star Wars and the star Trek from DC Comics,” is a mix of space opera and cosmic western, and it was time for the publisher to value every property in the franchise, with equal weight of dedication to every Emerald Earth hero who is a part of the Corps. We will see how it will be in May.
