You're on the Crisis Hotline With Doc, a series that focuses on all the Crisis events in the DC Universe. It is not a review program but rather a reader's guide and introduction to those events that highlights the importance of them to the DC Universe. In this sixth installment, Doc and Angus discuss The Sinestro Corps War. Sinestro -- Hal Jordan's former mentor and arch-nemesis -- has gathered an army of soldiers fueled by the fear they instill in others, consisting of Arkillo, Karu-Sil, the Cyborg-Superman, and hundreds more of the most terrifying villains the universe has ever seen! Former Green Lantern Kyle Rayner has been possessed by the entity known as Parallax and now assists the Sinestro Corps in cutting a swath of evil across the universe. Trapped in the depths of the Sinestro Corps' Citadel and face-to-face with the Guardian of Sinestro's army of fear, Hal Jordan must find the will-power to battle these terrible foes. And as one of the Book of Oa's prophecies comes true, the Green Lantern Corps makes a last stand that reveals the reincarnation of one of their fold! PART ONE focuses on several legacy topics involving the Lantern Corps that impact the event. PART TWO details more specifics of the event. Please share your thoughts once you have read:

This series is dedicated in loving memory of Charley Lippincott, who George Lucas hired in late 1975 to join the first Star Wars production as Vice President of Advertising, Publicity, Promotion & Merchandising. He is responsible for Star Wars comics becoming a reality with Marvel! The Force will be with him, always.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Angus concludes Halloween Horror Week with our Comic Book Character Of The Month, Werewolf By Night.

Please share your impressions once you have read the classic:

Werewolf By Night: The Complete Collection Vol. 1 

https://www.comixology.com/Werewolf-By-Night-The-Complete-Collection-Vol-1/digital-comic/553827

Jack Russell stars in tales to make you howl, as Marvel's very own Werewolf! Learn how Jack became one of the grooviest ghoulies of the seventies in this classic collection of his earliest adventures! Afflicted with his family's curse, Jack's on a search for answers - could they lie in the terrible tome known as the Darkhold? But Jack's quest is fraught with danger -from mad monks to big game hunters to a traveling freak show! Then there's the terror of Tatterdemalion, the horror of Hangman and the torment of Taboo! But few encounters can compare with Krogg, the lurker from beyond - except, maybe, a Marvel Team-Up with Spider-Man...and a supernatural showdown with Dracula himself!

Meet the new Werewolf by Night, Jake Gomez!

Our Graphic Novel for Halloween Horror Month was John Constantine, Hellblazer Vol. 5:

John Constantine, Hellblazer Vol. 5: Dangerous Habits (New Edition) https://www.comixology.com/John-Constantine-Hellblazer-Vol-5-Dangerous-Habits-New-Edition/digital-comic/140121

This new HELLBLAZER collection features several tales never before collected, including a look at John Constantine's rough and tumble childhood and the beginnings of his unique skills. Then, in some of the earliest stories from PREACHER writer Garth Ennis, John Constantine is dying. As a sorcerer literally haunted by the demons of his past, John is no stranger to mystic bedevilment or supernatural horror. But it's his chain smoking that ultimately brings death to Constantine's front door. John Constantine has lung cancer. Though condemned to hell, Constantine continues to laugh in the face of this all-too-serious world.
