A year long delay is also part of premium treatment? Somehow I don't remember an established company with "premium" in their slogan, name or promises fucking up the simple concept of deadline.
What do I want I want the book. Can I ask a question how brown is your nose from all the ass kissing you do to evs? If he had the concept in his little bitty brain for so many yrs he should be done because he knew the story long before he promoted it. Stop kissing his ass he is late because he lives on Twitter.
Thank you

The GLC member, Jessica Cruz, a recent creation by Geoff Johns and Ethan Van Sciver, is a member of the Green Lantern Corps and the Justice League. Her first appearance was Justice League #31 (2014). Now, five years later, she was just knocked off by none other than Darkseid in Justice League Odyssey as part of DC’s long-running modern custom of killing off characters they may not want to pay residuals on, or just decided to throw under the bus:
On the contrary, it hasn’t been shocking for years to see any DC character killed because DC editorial so decreed. But I’ve got a feeling they’d never have done this with the Islamic Green Lantern, Simon Baz, who may or may not be in this story, because of what his background was built on, and to do otherwise would violate their own PC standards. So instead they take the easy target and throw her out with bath water.
But was Jessica Cruz really ever a “fan favorite”? Her origin story was pretty tasteless, and the audience’s dwindled so badly, it’s clear there aren’t even many left who’ll clamor for her to be brought back, if at all, assuming she’s going to remain that way:
Umm, I think that would be ill-advised, if only because it would fill the coffers of Dan DiDio, and besides, no matter how this turns out, they count on gullibility of the audience to keep the sales going. Based on that, this is exactly why you shouldn’t even pick up these books if Katma Tui’s brought back (as far as I know, she’s still in the DCU crypt) because DiDio’s still bound to pull these reprehensible stunts, as he already has with Heroes in Crisis, and we can’t give him the satisfaction of thinking his contempt for fans will pay off. He is, as I’ve noted before, the single biggest problem with the face of DC today.
UPDATED
Ethan Van Sciver weighed-in on this story on his Youtube channel earlier today to correct our misunderstanding about the royalities from creating a character. Because Jessica Cruz is a ‘derivative’ character of Green Lantern, neither Geoff nor Ethan receive any ongoing royalties from the character, although they did receive a bonus payment recently when the character was to be used in other media.

An unknown warrior assembles Green Lantern Jessica Cruz and various heroes to form a new JLO as guardians of the Ghost Sector. Vastly outnumbered against Darkseid's savage para-angel strikeforce, they're going to have to fight their way through Darkseid's new multi-planet realm of Apokolips to...
So yeah, they both look dumb.
Ok, so Bleeding Fool weirdly thought this was a shot at Geoff and EVS' wallets and EVS just thinks DC is trimming the fat and she'll probably be back later if she comes back at all. Yeah, that entire article didn't need to exist when a quick search would have cleared it right up. The solicitation kinda annoys me though. Really takes the impact out when you show your "dead" character getting a book in TWO months.So, Darkseid killed Jessica Cruz in the most recent issue of Justice League Odyssey:

It's @FROG
It’s the best work of my long career.
Sure, but it’s an excuse to show some insight into how DC works, the incentive system, etc. I don’t care if Jessica Cruz is “dead” or not. It’s comics. No one is really dead. Talking about this and clearing up th mystery of why DC MIGHT kill a character and how that affects a creator is worthy of a video.
I understand that you have to do some PR speak, but do you really think this is believable? As if there's a chance that you would say anything else. As if you would honestly say "I misjudged the deadline", "I'm wasting time on YouTube". Fuck, dude you still have a cropped up moon on your official preview as well as a digital smudge for one of the space panels with other parts of the space looking completely digital too (or at least they just don't mash with the ship and the asteroid belt).
Forget solicitations. The title of the next issue is "afterlife" the only way to make it more obvious is to write "it's not over yet for her!!!!!". Jesus fuck they they think their audiences stupid.
