Geoff Johns is a name usually associated with superheroes, and particularly with DC, where he penned groundbreaking runs of Green Lantern and Aquaman alongside artist Ivan Reis, as well as the now classic Blackest Night crossover. Now the pair have reunited for a new ongoing horror title, Hyde Street. Published by Ghost Machine – the imprint that Johns co-founded alongside a host of other big name creators – Hyde Street is a twisty, unpredictable comic that's part Twilight Zone-style anthology, part ongoing mystery featuring a cast of sinister "Residents" like cynical ad man Mr X Ray and the evil boy scout Pranky.
Newsarama sat down with Johns this week to talk about the new comic, reuniting with Reis, and his desire to create a fresh roster of "characters you wouldn't normally expect to see anchoring a horror book."
