Geoff Johns’ Creator-Owned Series Reimagined DC’s Most Obscure Characters

Geoff Johns has become one of the most popular comic book writers of the past few decades. He was instrumental in rehabilitating several major DC books and properties, namely Green Lantern, Aquaman and the Justice Society of America. Recently, he’s also written a series of creator-owned books published by Image Comics, starting with Geiger. While these aren’t a part of the DC Universe, they do seem to be based on obscure DC properties.The Atomic Knights are easily one of the most forgotten DC creations ever, as are the company’s war-based characters. This divorce from the DC Universe proper allowed Geoff Johns to recreate them in his own fictional world. Now, these books allow the chance for Geiger and Junkyard Joe to far surpass their “inspirations” in the popularity department.Geiger released in 2021, reuniting writer Geoff Johns with artist Gary Frank. The comic is set in a post-apocalyptic future where much of the world has been ravaged by nuclear war. The effects on the environment are harsh, with irradiated animals being just a part of the harrowing new reality. Another is a much-rumored individual (the series’ titular “hero”) who’s known all throughout the land for his vast powers. Once a normal man with a rare form of cancer, Geiger survived a nuclear transformation and now lives in a far darker world.RELATED: Did DC License Out Its Characters to Other Companies During World War II?
