DC Comics’ January solicitations highlight a face-off between Green Lantern Hal Jordan and the Superman bad guy General Zod.
The upcoming comic Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #37 is written by Robert Venditti and designed by artist duo of Rafa Sandoval and Jordi Tarragona. This comic will initiate a new plot titled “Power of Zod.” This storyline shows the supervillain from Krypton taking over a small planet and thus, attracting Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps.
Zod debuted as a reborn character in Suicide Squad when Amanda Waller tried to use him as a weapon for Task Force X. In no time, he went out of control and nearly killed the entire team. Then we saw him in an Action Comics series which showed that Zod had joined a Superman Revenge Squad. The finale of that storyline showed Zod help his family escape from the Phantom Zone and introducing Ursa as well as Christopher Kent into the Rebirth eternity. Have a look at the solicitation draft of the upcoming comic book:
