DC Comics has released their solicitations for books releasing in October of 2023 as well as a few collected editions that will see release in November. It’s been some time since fans have seen so much Green Lantern content in one month! In addition to the regular issues of Green Lantern and Green Lantern: War Journal, there’s also the new Alan Scott series, giving us three monthly books for at least the next six months.

October also marks the return of Peter Thomasi to the pages of a Green Lantern book, although not writing a Green Lantern story but debuting a new character, Sinson, in this month’s back-up feature in the Green Lantern series. There’s also the bombastic Justice League/King Kong/Godzilla event we never knew we needed as well as a number of other books and Green Lantern centric collected editions to consider.
