Reader Question is back again. Last time was pretty successful I’d say so we’re looking to do this again on a regular basis if we can. We here at the Revolution always loved getting any feedback from the readers. So today’s question is a bit deeper then the first one, and it’s based around comics and the writers who write them.

This question has some layers to it, but I’ll ask it as plain and simple as I can.

Would you still read a comic if the long term writer where to leave it?

Now I’m talking in the context of someone who’s been writing this comic for years, such as with Geoff Johns and his run on Green Lantern, which has now been for over 50 issues. Certain writers like this become attached to the characters and when you think of these creators you think of these characters. So if Johns decided to leave Green Lantern, would you still read it?

This fits with all other comics like this, such as Captain America or Ultimate Spider-man. These comics are some of the best selling and most beloved comics out there thanks to the hard work of their writers. But if they no longer wanted to tell stories with their characters do you think you’d still support the comic regardless?

I know there’s a lot of reasons people will read a comic, for the characters, the artist, maybe even just a random whim because the cover looks cool. But often a writer can be a good sign if a comic will be good or not, seeing as past experiences with the writer can influence if you’ll check out the book or not.

So let us know what you think about the possible leavings of a creator from a comic they’ve worked a long time on. Will you drop it, support it, or chain Johns to the computer and make him write Green Lantern until he dies?
