Just like with Wally, this is a way for me to get acclimated to the book. But, if I make it clear who this character is and why we should root for him, as well as understand where he’s at emotionally, then when we start doing those bigger things, people will be able to go along with the bigger swings I hope to take. I do want to touch on that stuff, but if I jump into it, I really feel like people won’t be invested. What I’m doing now is allowing me to find my voice for Hal and build that character into someone everyone will love, and then I can broaden it out. I think I’d be terrible at it, at least I would be at the moment. JA: In all honesty, part of the reason for that return is because the giant, mythological universe that Geoff and his artists helped create is super intimidating. What is the inspiration/motivation behind that decision? After reading your first issue, it’s clear that you’re bringing him back down to earth for a character focused journey. First up, since 2005, we’ve had very mythological Green Lantern stories, at least for the runs that were focused on Hal Jordan. TD: Now it’s time for a Green Lantern triple header. We’re playing a long game, and we have bigger plans for what will come out of this mini-series. It’ll have ramifications not just for Jay and his new family, but for the DC Universe as a whole. There will be space for a lot of humor, but there is also this overarching villain story that’s going to be taking place. We have a kid who’s out of time, and then you have a Dad, like me, who is probably a helicopter parent but can be one at a super fast level. There are going to be elements of that, as we are dealing with Jay, Joan, and now Judy, so there is going to be a family dynamic but it’s going to be a little more strained. Part of the way I’m approaching Jay is based on my want for it to feel different than everything going on with Wally and his family. So, I started working with the Flash family before Flashpoint: Beyond, so I just so happen to be following Geoff’s plan of attack for everything. How will your modern sensibilities and the legacies you face influence your work with an older hero like Jay? While you’ve certainly stumbled onto a similar creative pattern as Geoff with Flash and Green Lantern, getting to work on a silver age inspired Flash book is very different from that mold. Now Jeremy, you made a splash at DC when you wrote Flashpoint: Beyond alongside Geoff Johns and Tim Sheridan. You’ll know him from The Flash, Green Lantern, and soon enough, The Flash again with the upcoming New Golden Age series, Jay Garrick: The Flash. TD: And that, everybody, is the intro to my conversation with Jeremy Adams.

While his body of work says so much about his love for DC, as do his words. Many people will know Jeremy from those two books, but he has also worked on Supernatural, Green Lantern the Animated Series, Battle of the Super Sons, and Flashpoint: Beyond.
