Dan Watters and Kyle Hotz are taking Hal Jordan into an alternate universe where humanity has become an interstellar empire. DC announced Green Lantern: Doomed Cosmos on October 19, describing a six-issue Elseworlds series beginning January 20, 2027. In this version of events, the Green Lantern Corps is a battered

military resistance to human expansion. Hal begins as a soldier of the empire before Oliver Queen betrays him and leaves him on an alien world. Rescued by the Corps, he becomes its only human fighter, turning his knowledge of humanity against the forces he once served. Hotz draws the series and provides the main cover,

with Dan Brown on colours and Steve Wands lettering. The first issue will run 32 pages and cost $4.99 US, with separately priced card-stock and foil variants. As an Elseworlds story, Doomed Cosmos establishes its own setting and versions of familiar characters. Its announcement offers a self-contained alternative for

readers interested in cosmic warfare and a radically different Hal Jordan. Official source. Image credit: Kyle Hotz / DC.
