New Green Lantern writer, Rob Venditti, will be at A Comic Shop Wednesday June 5th to sign the first issue of his Green Lantern run!
He’s taking over for Geoff Johns with issue #21, and the ring chose him mainly because of his work on Valiant’s X-O Manowar.
You should also check out his Surrogates (which was made into a Bruce Willis movie) and Homeland Directive.
This will be a FREE signing and meet-up in the Geek Easy during the day with (green) food and beer specials and then a Green Lantern themed after party.
The party isn’t going on too late because it’s a Wednesday and Rob and I are going to Heroes Con the next day!
