‘In Brightest Day Off’ Green Lantern Fan Film Shines New Light On John Stewart

Article by Steve J. Ray

One of the greatest parts about writing for Fantastic Universes, DC Comics News, and Dark Knight News is getting to shout about great content made by fans.

Anyone who follows this site knows that I’m part of the amazing DC Comics News Podcast team, but I have another show, Superheroes For Dummies, that’s appears the brilliant Comics In Motion Podcast Network and on YouTube. Another CiM host is Mike Burton, who has a Star Wars comics show there, but who also runs a podcast called Genuine Chit-Chat: Honest Conversations With Interesting People. I was fortunate enough to be a guest on episodes #108 and #109, which is where I met the amazing BZ “The Voice” Cullins.

Let me tell you about this guy.

BZ inspired me. Not only is he a respected voice actor and voice acting coach already, but this Las Vegas resident is a bona-fide comics fan, and one of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet.

And that voice…

BZ is a Green Lantern fan, particularly when it comes to John Stewart. Some fans read comics, buy books, or watch TV shows. BZ Cullins is an actor, so he’s moved on from just  reading about John Stewart, or watching his adventures in animation… BZ Cullins has become John Stewart.

After creating a short – filmed entirely on his smart phone – BZ has gone on to create a fan film online, which is a passion project, and a completely new take on a Superhero fan film. Everybody knows the famous Green Lantern Oath:

In Brightest Day,
In Blackest Night,
No evil shall escape my sight.
Let those who worship evil’s might,
Beware My Power,
Green Lantern’s Light.

Now we get to say what happens on a superhero’s Brightest Day Off!

Green Lantern, Shayera Hall… so cool! Plus the added bonus of a sequel in the works, featuring every Sector 2814 GL! I cannot wait for In Blackest Night Out!

What do you think of In Brightest Day Off? Please let us know.

You can follow BZ “The Voice” Cullins on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and on IMDb.

The DC Comics News Podcast, Superheroes For Dummies, all the Comics In Motion shows, and Genuine Chit-Chat, can be found on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, or Wherever you find podcasts.

Ray Wild Cards: Now And Then  is a brand new graphic novel based in an alternate reality and shared universe co-created by George R.R.

Fantastic Universes Interview: Madison, Matthew and Macsen Lintz From 'The Walking Dead'

Interview panel led by Steve J. Ray, with a gathering of Comic/TV Media Journalists. I've spoken to some amazing people over the last couple of years; writers, artists, costume designers, and actors from some of my favorite TV shows. It's no secret that I'm a huge comic-book fan, and one of the TV series that's based on and inspired by a comics title - but has gone on to be so much more - is The Walking Dead . At a recent Comic-Con in London, I had the great opportunity of leading a panel where some fellow journalists and I spoke with Madison, Matthew and Macsen Lintz, three siblings who played Sophia and both iterations of Henry on the show. The eldest, Madison Lintz (born 1999) played Sophia Peletier - Carol's daughter - in the first two seasons. She's also well known for playing Maddie Bosch in the Amazon series Bosch . She started acting at the age of six, filming commercials and voice-overs. Matthew (born 2001) took over the role of Henry from
