Exclusive Interview With Geoff Johns!

Babs sits down and talks with DC writer Geoff Johns and asks everything you want to know!


   
 
This past weekend I got to sit down and conduct an exclusive interview with Geoff Johns. Looking back now I think I probably acted like a complete fan-girl, but hey, you would have reacted the same way! I asked all the tough questions; everything from how he came up with the concept for his latest 'Blackest Night' series, to which out of all of the comics he has written, is his favorite. Overall it was an awesome experience, and I was grateful that he was able to give me a few minutes of his time! A big thank you to Isotope Comics in San Francisco for hosting! 

If you liked it, then please Digg!

I'm going to have to beg you pardon here. I've only been a member of this site for a few days. I had no idea about Diggs on here.
I seriously enjoy your interview and comic reviews. I'll keep this in mind to show my full support in the future. Your work on this site was a major factor in my joining. I also wanted to show off some of my comic themed artwork.
Great interview here.

Excellent Work Babs!
That Was A Great interview And Its Great To See Such An Amazing Writer To Time Out To Talk A Bit To All The Fans. He Seems Very Personable And Friendly, So Thats Just Awesome To See From Such An Amazing Talent. Most Of My Favorite Stories In Recent Years And Ever Have Come From Him.

Wow, thats a bit sexist. Anytime a woman is talking on camera somebody has to say "its the View."
Come on man, lets not make stupid observations.

You did a great job Babs.

@Babs: Great interview Babs, good job. Its nice to see the artists and writers sitting down with the fans to do interviews. I have to say I am not as big into DC as some people, but this current GL run is definitely peaking my interest.

If Alex Ross and Dane Cook had a love child he'd look a lot like Geoff Johns.

I'm probablly the only one that don't like the Blackest Night here, but l enjoyed the interview, though. He really seams a cool dude on live.

Wasn't on GL #25 that Sinestro fought agaisnt Jordan and Kyle, all three without the help of the ring? Yeah that was a cool one!

I liked the interview. With the exception of Stan Lee, Geoff Johns is the best writer ever. I can't wait for leigon of 3 worlds #5 to come out finally. I'm even more excited for lantern #44. For awhile I was only interested in collecting back issues of Spider-Man and X-men from the 90's down. But Geoff turned me into a DC fan and got me going to get monthly comics again.

Oh, Babs! Geoff's not going to give away such vital answers to Blackest Night!

Nice try though.

Also, I think Geoff is now a fan of you! ;)

Interview skills are improving. Good work.
More questions, turn your head more to the camera when you're talking, you have talent and energy.

You have the obvious looks, but that's easy, you'll be a big hit in the comic world because you have that bubbly energy, but not to the point where it becomes contrived and airheaded.

A nice mixture of genuine comic fan and not hard on the eyes, I'd like to see more eye contact with the camera and focus, without compromising your natural likability.

Hope that came out right.

Good work.
