One of their side pages is The Significant Seven: History’s Most Important Superheroes. It is, for the most part, an excerpt from …

Geoff Johns revisits some old favorites

Over at Dixonverse, they’re discussing a topic I’ve been thinking about for a while:  Geoff Johns seeming to go overboard with the material from a number of Alan Moore stories.  While I like much of what has been happening…indeed, Green Lantern and Green Lantern Corps are the ONLY DC Comic books I still buy… this …
