A New DC Green Lantern Has Officially Been Unveiled

HBO's Lanterns may have just ended with no second season in sight yet, but Green Lantern fans still have a promising new interpretation of the classic DC hero to look forward to. DC Comics announced Green Lantern: Doomed Cosmos on Tuesday, a miniseries with a unique take on the Green Lantern corps.

From writer Dan Watters and artist Kyle Hotz, Green Lantern: Doomed Cosmos is an Elseworlds story where the Green Lanterns look a helluva lot like Space Marines from Warhammer 40,000. They're big dudes wielding big weapons while fighting a big ol' cosmic war.

In Doomed Cosmos, the Empire of Humanity is conquering the stars, and only the beefed-up Green Lanterns are left to stop them. Hal Jordan is the only human fighting against the Empire after being betrayed by Oliver Queen, whom you know in main DC Comics continuity as Green Arrow. I guess in this universe, Jordan and Queen never bonded during a road trip across America together in the 1970s.

"Visually, I am trying to walk the line between over-the-top space opera and the emotional beats of the story," Hotz said in a news release. "I want to get the feeling across that the Lanterns are beat up, tired, and certainly the underdogs. Their armor is cracked and broken, and their weapons are held together with tape and wire. These are soldiers nearing the end of their fight."

For centuries, the Empire of Humanity has swept across the universe, laying siege to the cosmos planet by planet until all kneel before the might of the human race.
