IN HONOR OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH, video of my webinar on: THE ORIGIN OF THE BLACK GREEN LANTERN! At the dawn of the 1970s, legendary comic book artist Neal Adams forged brand new artistic identities for several mainstream comic book characters, including Batman and The X-Men, as well as two distinctive DC heroes, Green Lantern and Green Arrow. His photorealistic visual acuity enabled he and his writer/collaborator, Denny O’Neil, to break new ground telling the kinds of reality-based stories that could be told in “superhero” comic books, and in doing so, made their Green Lantern-Green Arrow run of (only) 13 issues one of the most honored and esteemed, memorable and influential in comic book history! One of the series’ most memorable creations was the 1972 debut of one John Stewart, a.k.a. “The Black Green Lantern,” DC Comics’ FIRST black superhero! The details of how he came to be–from the origin of his very name to his civilian identity’s occupation–are explored, featuring comic book panels, pages and covers presented so dynamically that they’ll make you look at, and understand, the legend of Green Lantern John Stewart as if for the FIRST time! https://youtu.be/wddTpTFA6ms #greenlantern #dccomics #nealadamsart #dennyoneil #juliusschwartz #superheroes #blacksuperheroes #blacksuperhero #johnstewart #johnstewartgreenlantern #arlenschumer #comicbookhistory #comicbookhistorian @dgareps @nyadventureclub @richardsyrettstrangeplanet @adamschumer https://www.instagram.com/p/CoXgcFirgs8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Are the ancestors a flex? I believe they are. Realistically, the African diaspora derives all their powers from “the Ancestors”. It’s why I always struggled with American comics. I just don’t get it. But in the NeoAfrican Comic Universe you will tap into the real methods to get in touch with that power. Subscribe to #redhunter and even comment on the methods you uncover to call the ancestors. #webtoon #manga #anime #webcomic #manhwa #comics #webtoons #webcomics #manhua #linewebtoon #webtooncanvas #artistsoninstagram #comicart #blackpanther #comicbooknerd #creatingcomics #characterdesign #NCU #blacksuperheroes #kolanutproductions #africanfuturism #blackgirlmagic #afroanime #africancomics #africanwebtoons (at Ontario, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co5Q2z9P6Wm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
