I haven't, but I've wanted to. Good?

An all-new cast with some surprising holdovers. If kids in the future can be inspired by heroes of the past, I don't see why kids of the present can't be inspired by the future, especially considering the prevalence of time travel, heroes, come the demon Etrigan. in the DC universe.
I never really had any affinity for LOSH until that Geoff Johns / Gary Frank Superman/LOSH story, and since then I've been in love with the idea.
I'm definitely under-read when it comes to classic LOSH. Some of the stuff I've picked up that people say is the best is frankly sort of boring.
I would read the balls off of that.
I'd also like to do a Spectre book where he's a wrath of god motherfucker, all going old-school EC Comics on motherfuckers, deaths being ironic as fuck.

So a Golden Age Spectre book, then?

Oh man, could it be like the Spectre animated short on Superman/Shazam? I would buy that.

Oh fuck yes, a seventies'd out Spectre ongoing would be astounding.
I would do a reboot of Green Lantern in a noir style, so instead of an intergalactic police force there would be an intergalactic Private Eye Agency. The logo would have the appearance of and eye emanating from the center of the lantern. Each sector would have two or three Lanterns working together, and instead of Hal being brash and cocky with the outward/in-you-face attitude of a fighter pilot, he would have the reserved/in-your-face attitude of a Sam Spade. Noir with bright glowing constructs that would give the detective away unless you use great care with your constructions, until you are being chased through the streets by galactic Rockefeller types, trying to save the dame who will just end up putting the knife in your back herself.

I don't think a reboot is necessary to implement the idea, it could be developed from the current corps.
