Tony Bedard who is now the writer behind the 'Green Lantern Corps' comics is currently working with Geoff Johns and Peter Tomasi to write 'War of the Green Lanterns' which will start this week in 'Green Lantern issue #64', which brings together the stories of 'Green Lantern, 'Green Lantern: Emerald Warriors', and 'Green Lantern Corps'.

He recently spoke to Newsarama and lets us know that the movie is important to the comic-book universe.

"The movie is definitely important to our plans. The month [June] the movie hits will also present readers with good jumping-on points in all three Green Lantern monthlies. But we're not reinventing the comic to follow the movie. It's more that the entire Green Lantern franchise is coordinated so there's a synergy between the different media, be it print, feature films, animation or online."

Be sure to head over to Newsarama for the full interview where Bedard goes on to discuss 'War of the Green Lanterns'.

I'm hyped for War of the Green Lanterns. The last two big GL events were great.

We all know that the trailer is going to be released with Sucker Punch on Friday. This has been known for months.

And while you guys complain about lack of a trailer for GL, I hear no such complaining about Captain America, which hasn't even released a trailer yet, just 30 seconds with no dialogue.

I can't wait to see Thor and Green Lantern, I'm not to optimistic about Captain America.

^ Cap 30 seconds > GL 1st trailer by people reaction. And no dialogue? Are you sure you watched the same superbowl teaser?

I can't wait for this movie. I'm not worried about the lack of a trailer. When you have something you know will be badass, sometimes less is more.

I think the main difference between the GL trailer and the Cap spot was with GL, they were just giving you a glimpse. You got the feeling that what you were seeing was just the tip of the iceberg as far as what was to come. With the Cap spot, they almost shot there wad by showing what, in my opinion could be as good as it's gonna get with that one. I know I'll catch flack for saying that and of course there will be some amazing footage in Cap, but that's just the feeling I got. Perhaps because they had to rush it in time for the superbowl. The actual Cap trailer really needs to score a touchdown. Otherwise that movie will be in some big trouble.

This is the only series I collect EVERY issue and tie-in of. Will be interesting to see how it fits in. War Of The Green Lanterns should be good and Brightest Day finishes in June (thank f**k). Krona has just been a big player recently so I can see how it might cross pollenate to some degree. I'm guessing a universe reset button!
