July marks the 75th anniversary of the first appearance of Green Lantern and while we don’t know the full extent to which DC might honor the characters there are a couple of things already known. DC has stealthily put a 75th anniversary logo up on a new character page over on the DC Comics website. Also listed on Amazon.com is a new 400 page hardcover anthology titled Green Lantern: A Celebration of 75 Years which is listed to be getting an September 9, 2015 release date with a $39.99 pre-order price.
