DC Comics is trying something new. In the wake of their Rebirth initiative, the publisher has rapidly expanded its content to include diverse new imprints such as Young Animal, Wildstorm, Black Label, Ink, and Zoom. As their lineup expands, it can be hard to figure out what to pick up each week. Does anyone remember when Donna Troy was dating Kyle Rayner? She dumped him because she walked in on a nude model posing for him in his apartment. And also because her ex-husband and their son had just died in a car accident.

Opens June We like much of what we saw, but we do have some questions and concerns:. News that Ryan Reynolds would be sporting a motion-capture suit for his scenes as Green Lantern made us nervous, and now we know why--GL essentially looks like he's wearing nothing but one of Larry Blackmon's old codpieces or should the plural be "codpie"? Don't get us wrong, Mr. Reynolds has a magnificent body, one that mocks the fleshy donut around our midsection. But remember how uncomfortable Batman's nipples made you? Peter Sarsgaard looks great as super villain Hector Hammond , especially after his head gets all gigantic and gross. Unfortunately, the trailer doesn't tell us anything about Hammond or the plot of the film.
