Gotta Light?

Be without fear.
A detail from ABSOLUTE GREEN LANTERN #2, out today.
Be entirely without fear.

Two new books out and no time to dilly-dally, so let's get in and out quick...

WHAT'S OUT TODAY?

Absolute Green Lantern #2, that's what!

The main cover for Absolute Green Lantern #2, by Jahnoy Lindsay, showing Hal Jordan on his knees in darkness, huddled in a foetal position. In the foreground, Jo Mullein is glowing green - we focus on her hand and her wedding ring, glowing white.
What happened to you, Hal?

In which the cast attempt to understand what's happened to them in the present, while their past selves confront the Abin Sur and the violent results of the human limits of comprehension reacting to alien concepts. Jahnoy Lindsay performs more magic here - that gorgeous mix of manga style and painted art really makes the action pop. I'm looking forward to seeing what he does with some of the more dreamlike moments I'm writing right now.

If he was still with us, I'd probably cast Don S Davis as Guy Gardner.

The cover of All-New Venom #6 by Adam Kubert, showing Venom and Jackpot locked in combat in a sewer.
Jackpot vs. Venom, now with context.

Speaking of mysterious revelations - All-New Venom #6 is out today, telling readers exactly how Mary Jane Watson ended up inside the symbiote! I can promise it all makes sense and flows from previous events on the page, goo believers - but you'll have to read for yourself to see if you agree. The question is, what will Robbie Robertson do now that he knows everything? And when is Dylan going to learn the truth? Carlos Gómez draws some of the weirdest transformations yet, beautifully colored by Frank D'Armata.

THAT'S ALL, FOLKS!

Another quick one, I'm afraid - if you'd like more up-to-the-minute updates, including FOC details every Monday, follow Al Ewing Promotes Comics on BlueSky - it's my comics-promotion-only account, ably handled on my behalf by assistant to the stars Tyler Jennes. Until next time, love, strength and justice to all who need it, and I'll play us out with "Go" by Moby.

Yeah.
