Paul Levitz and Mike Carlin felt it would inevitably lose sales, although I didn't feel the evidence was there for that. I think they also feared that it would make the whole GL universe more confusing for readers. The other comics were just victims of slow sales declines. The whole business was declining, DC was hitting hard times, the main GL series lost a lot of sales, no doubt at least partly because of my boring stories."
As you can see low sales

I took the offer and worked within those parameters, and did the best job I could. The truth is, if I hadn't written Emerald Twilight, someone else would have, and the story would have been substantially the same."
"I got a call... the phone rang and it was Kevin Dooley, offering me the job. Mike Carlin, Archie Goodwin and Denny O'Neil were in the room, as well as Eddie Berganza, who was Kevin's assistant at the time. I believe Paul Levitz might well have been there too."
""Kevin said he wanted me to take over 'GL' because the book needed a fresh direction I was excited... And then the other shoe dropped. Kevin explained what was planned, essentially removing Hal from the book and replacing him with a GL that I would make up. Pretty serious stuff. I actually begged off and took about a week before I accepted it. I knew it was a great opportunity, a rare chance to really change the course of a book. But I also knew it would come with an immense amount of baggage. I obviously ended up jumping in with both feet, though."
