If you read the article I posted above, Redjack is going to go into the relationship between the Guardians, the GLC, and the new United Planets.
He’s a big Star Trek fan so I’m not surprised he’s tackling that stuff .So the political shakeup that was created in the Superman books, by creating the United Planets in the Milky Way galaxy, has basically thrown thrown a light on the guardians and saying, ‘Well, look, fellas, we’re not sure we need you if we’re going to be running our own show. So how’s that going to work?’ And so that’s sort of the point of issue one,” he says. “That discussion is a large component of issue one. It’s not something I made up, but the ripple effect of creating the nine planets to me was very interesting. And DC wanted that partially as sort of a West Wing vibe to some of this, and I was like, ‘Well, that’s going to be dull. There’s not a lot of shooting monsters in the West Wing.'”
He adds, “There’s going to be a lot of political intrigue. There’s going to be a lot of what is their [the Lantern Corps] new role in the new shape of the galaxy? What are the Green Lanterns? What’s the Green Lantern function going to be within this new context? The United Planets has its own group, the United Planets Brigade, so what the hell do we need these Green Lanterns for? And what’s their jurisdiction that we are the government now? Like, are the guardians the government? Were they the government? They’re not our rulers; they just sort of show up and dispense justice. According to who?”
