    There was a rumor that Hal and Carol will break up in Heroes in Crisis but I don't see that actually happening.

    Unless it's Sinestro, but everyone calls Sinestro by his last name .
    Hal did call Sinestro “Thaal” in GLTAS.

    Honestly I don’t think Kyle will die this time. He died many times these years and every time he came back to life in the next issue… And King killed him once. There’s no reason for he to do that again.

    The most recent batch of rumors going around are entirely fake, I don't think that's going to happen

    I thought Kyle was a likely suspect for dying in HiC but apparently Scott Snyder mentioned in an interview today that Kyle is under Morrison's domain now?

    Eh, come on. Really, I just want Hal’s own solo. They can’t maintain a solo as what a solo should look like for even 12 issues? What does that THE Green Lantern mean?

    I think it IS a Hal solo, that's how it's been pitched so far. But I wonder if Morrison is going to be doing a second GL book or crossover issues with JL or something else.

    Hal will be the star, yes, but the entire GL mythos will now be under Morrison's direction. John is under Snyder's in Justice League, Jessica is off in space with Odyssey, but Kyle, Guy & Baz will presumably be given something to do by Morrison. I think Guy & Baz are so similar it'd be fun to pair them together for awhile so the differences between them can be a little more pronounced.

    Hmmm, Guy is a Reagan-loving right winger and Baz is a Muslim thrown into Guantanamo Bay as terrorist. I smell a mini-series

    But Hal will likely be the main throughline of The Green Lantern, just as he was during Johns run, which also featured the other Earth GLs in guest appearances. Unlike then, though, it appears that John is going to have a great run in Justice League because it seems unlikely Scott Snyder is going to get fired off the book like Dwayne McDuffie was (for no good reason).

    Well, they were still pals in that cartoon, and Hal even seemed to idolize Sinestro, so it fit.

    I'm not surprised if true.

    Morrison always seemed to have an affinity for Kyle.

    I'll be very surprised if there's still not a GLC book running alongside the Morrison solo, which will probably be where all the other Earth Lanterns end up.

    Maybe they'll all just "disappear" from the known universe for no discernible reason again...

    I heard that McDuffie was told to push Firestorm and wrap up Vixen’s storyline from Meltzer while he had no intention to do. He wanted to focus on John Stewart. Meanwhile Robinson was doing a second title of JLA but that didn’t go smoothly because the artist was too slow. At this time McDuffie was feuding with fans over John and called any of other Lanterns’ fans racists. So DC forced him to let go of John. The book Robinson worked on finally turned into Cry For Justice and he replaced McDuffie as the writer of JLA.

    BTW, it seems Venditti is doing something that includes Guy.

    That may be true, but I heard a different story. McDuffie had committed the sin of airing his dirty laundry with DC Editorial, laying bare their capricious and nonsensical whims that prevented him from simply telling good JLA stories. Given McDuffie's track record and the "do whatever you want" approach that Brad Meltzer was allowed, I can totally understand why McDuffie was pissed at how he was treated during his brief-run, which was pitched to him as a merging of the Milestone characters into the DCU proper.

    It wasn’t that different if he thought pushing Firestorm and Vixen or giving up John is nonsensical whim…
    Meltzer was relaunching JLA so I can get why DC gave him more creative licenses.

    It would sell a lot more books if Baz suddenly did show up as being a terrorist plant in the Gl corps
