Green Lantern - The 75th Anniversary Celebration!

image

Hey Guys,

Chad here! (LanternCast co-host extraordinaire) I was going to post this AS the event was happening, but I didn't want to clutter up the forums with a topic I'd be continually posting to as more and more information came out. (You're quite welcome)

Anywho, so THIS YEAR marks the 75th anniversary of 'All-American Comics #16' which featured the FIRST appearance of Alan Scott Green Lantern. It was cover dated for July of 1940 so it was probably on the shelf in May of that year. So, being part of a Green Lantern podcast, we took it upon ourselves to make a big to do about it! So, for the months of June and July we teamed up with a handful of other notable Green Lantern related sites (blogs, fansites, podcasts, etc) to celebrate! July is now over, so, in terms of the OFFICIAL celebration, everything is over with.

So here we are! I'm going to provide you links to all of the posts. You're welcome to read, listen, view the content at your discretion, but I recommend you comment on the content if you've got the time!

First up are links to posts from us! (The LanternCast)

So, if you want to participate with your own GL celebration stuff, let us know (or just do it!) by emailing us at lanterncast@gmail.com

And feel free to use the hashtag #GL75th across various social media sources to draw attention to it!
