DC Reveals New Look at Green Lantern Dark

DC's Elseworlds line relaunched earlier this year to great fanfare, providing a wide swath of unique stories outside of the main universe's continuity. On Tuesday, DC unveiled the first look at the latest Elseworlds entry , Green Lantern Dark , ahead of the first issue's debut on Wednesday, October 23rd. From writer Tate Brombal ( House of Slaughter ) and artist Werther Dell'Edera ( Something Is Killing the Children ), Green Lantern Dark will follow the Green Lantern of the Tangent Universe , a mysterious heroine who first made her debut in 1997. The seres will span seven issues, with new issues being published every other month. Green Lantern Dark #1 will have a main cover by series artist Dell'Edera, with variant covers by Homare, David Nakayama, and Dan Jurgens with Norm Rapmund and Alex Sinclair, plus a foil variant cover by Homare.

"Werther and I are reimagining what a Green Lantern can be and do with this comic book, and we are so proud to introduce the world to Rina Mori," Brombal said in a statement. "She's tired. She's grumpy. The last thing she wants to do is save the world, but she'll have to get up out of bed and do it anyhow. I promise you won't want to miss it."

What Is Green Lantern Dark About?

In Green Lantern Dark , on a postapocalyptic Earth overrun by monsters, the battle between good and evil ended long ago--and evil won. Now darkness prevails as humanity struggles to survive in the corrupted wasteland that remains. Only one hero is said to haunt what's left of our shadowed cities: the one who wields the mystical green flame that could return light to a shadowy world--the Green Lantern. But she's been missing for years--and on the isolated island of New England, Solomon Grundy's undead army only grows larger and more powerful every night.

"Tate and I are very excited to introduce you to the most rotten, grumpy, and adorable Green Lantern since Guy Gardner," Dell'Edera echoed. "Welcome to DC's Elseworlds Green Lantern Dark !"
