Brian Bendis has been tweeting out since June 7th and about every 2-3 days since of LSH art from his favorite LSH poster to Ryan Sook art from past LSH issues.
He has no comments in his tweets except in his hashtags "#moretocome", "#secretofgoldlantern", "#jonkent", "#monsterboy", "#comics", "#comicbooks", "#comicbookart", #joequinones"
When the question is asked "Something's coming, What is it? When is it?" Bendis responds #believe"
Will DC September 2021 solicitations announce that "Joe Quinones" as the new artist for Legion of Super-Heroes #13?

I envy those who still have hope after all this time.
Hey, Kids! My "Cranky and Kitschy" collage art is now viewable on DeviantArt! Drop by and tell me that I sent you. *updated often!*

These hashtags without comments always annoyed me. I had a friend who kept posting like 50 hashtags with each photo, but not a single caption. True wit comes from the captions... anyway
Like cleome, I am a bit jaded and pessimistic sadly

At this point, I'm almost indifferent. If there's a new issue or the series resumes, I'll read it, but I feel like they're tossing us a bone at best. You want your Gold Lantern backstory, here it is.
I believe in the Legion, its concept, ideals, long history and many variations, the whole Long Live the Legion spirit, whether or not it gets published for another issue or 12. Some hashtag marketing campaign is irrelevant for me.

Yeah, agreed on pretty much all that cleome, Ibby and FC said.
Johanna Carlson commented on one of Mike Sterling's recent blog posts about the Legion that an interesting idea would be to have a Showcase-type book dedicated to the Legion, but there would be stories from different eras.
It's a great idea. Therefore DC will never do it.

And a big diverse cast full of cool individuals who genuinely like each other and come together for the good of all, building a sum greater than its parts!

Yep. Agree.
And I guess its not worth spinning in speculation until the next solicits come back in what, a week or something?
If they were to do anything it makes more sense to wait until the Sept-December window anyway.

He keeps doing it.
This time the hashtag was #goldlanternsaga.
I wish I were kidding.

Does he think this is cute? Like he keep just saying 'patience' and dropping vague hashtags. It's nothing.

I love Bendis, but come on. Until the book is only a month or two away, STFU about it! The more you talk about a book that the publisher isn't even promoting, the more you look like a tease and a troll.
Watching television is not an activity.

I'm seriously wondering if DC's PR department is so decimated due to layoffs that they literally CANNOT respond to Bendis' tweets from the hip. Its irresponsible at best.

It wouldn't surprise me if he was doing this at the company's urging. That seems to happen often on social media. I think there was a thing on Twitter several years ago in which Simone had a very popular character appear to die in what was an obvious cliffhanger ending. Fans got rage-y and upset. But instead of just pointing out, "Folks, it's a cliffhanger you've seen this stuff a million times before, right?" She said something like, "Just keep reading, please."
Seems likely that whatever contract you sign working for a company this size includes being told to stoke the flames while pretending that nobody higher up the food chain told you to. Social media kind of functions for comics companies the way in-house paper promos like *Marvel Age* used to when I was a young fan.
