COMICS: The Justice League Take On 'Baz' In GREEN LANTERN #14

Teasing their November solicitations, DC Comics have revealed Doug Mahnke's cover and details for Green Lantern #14, an issue which will see the Justice League taking on Earth's new Green Lantern 'Baz' as they attempt to find out where Hal Jordan has disappeared to.

Earlier this month, it was revealed that the name of Earth's new Green Lantern is 'Baz', although that's pretty much all we know about the character at this point. It is thought that he will be VERY different to Hal Jordan however, especially as a "Trinity War" teaser in DC's "Free Comic Book Day" issue showed him battling the Justice League. Well, it now appears as if we can expect to see him taking on the team even earlier than expected in a "Rise of the Third Army" chapter in this November's Green Lantern #14 reveals The Source.



We’re going to be meeting a brand new Green Lantern in issue #0, and unlike his predecessors, he’s not the sort of guy you’d be expecting to wear the ring. That’s putting it mildly," series editor Matt Idelson teases. "After the events of Green Lantern Annual #1, Hal Jordan is MIA in a very big way, and our new Green Lantern finds himself in a new role, though his troubled life isn’t going to go away in the slightest. In fact it’s the things he’s notorious for that in large part bring the Justice League into the picture—they want to know what’s happened to Hal, and what this guy thinks he’s doing filling the role of Green Lantern. It’s going to be intense, but also very, very cool."

They heard him reciting the oath in Arabic and overreacted.

I still have a soft spot for when joe Kelly and Doug mahnke were on JLA a while back. His art is amazing now. I wish he'd take over for Jim Lee.

It always amazes me how the Justice League can't just seem to talk out their problems with other superheroes. They always just fight them.

Even has a big DC and comic book fan, sometimes comics are truly silly.

@Splenda- No, from what we know so far, Baz gets his ring from Sinestro or Hal. In Corps we saw that the Guardians are holding new rings back so that there will not be any new Lanterns.

Again, the end of GL #11 made it look a hell of a lot like Baz was an incarcerated white guy with blonde hair.

I thought that Green lanterns were suppoesed to be honorable and be heros for their planet??? Why would DC create a green lantern that would fight the JL??

Have you guys ever thought to consider that maybe the cover is symbolic of the events inside? Perhaps the JL doesn't actually fight Baz, but they do oppose his methods so strongly that the events play out like they're holding him back?

It's just a thought. Don't be so quick to judge something that won't be out for a few months.

I've really enjoyed the title so far, though lately its felt like a lot of filler and build-up. I just realized the other day that Kyle rayner has been around for about 20 years now. I guess it is time for a new lantern
