He's my favorite. Met him in 2009 at one of my local comic stores when he was signing Blackest Night #1.

WonderCon 2011: Geoff Johns
Never saw First Flight, but I'm pretty excited to see Emerald Knights. Johns had me when he used the Star Wars bounty hunter analogy.
Geoff almost said "yes" to a death. He said to her question "Ye...well errr...." to cover himself up.
" Well since he clearly said yes to the question, i wonder who it's going to be, i just hope it's not another lian harper incident "That was Robinson, so I doubt it.
The fact that Flashpoint is a Flash and Batman in a Brave and the Bold type story has me interested I do think there is something to people complaining Johns relies too much on mythology in stories but when it comes to a straight superhero story Johns is a master of so I'll be checking it out.

" @xkoenig: Didn't she wrap it up when she said "alright, thank you so much for talking to us today"? I laughed when babs asked if someone was gonna die and he said yes but had to stop himself. :D "I just meant something like: <turns to camera> 'I'm Sara Lima and you're watching ComicVine,' <aaannd cut!>
" "Ye...well errr... I Dunno, Maybe."Now the question is, WHO'S GONNA DIE??? "That is a pretty bad excuse to say when YOU'RE the one writing the book xD lol

How the hell did Geoff Johns do it? From an intern (by accident) to Richard Donner, to being a top writer for DC. And all and all, being pretty darn amazing at it! I am envious.
