i DON’T SEE THE … i DON’T SEE THE POINT OF THIS WHOLE BLACKNEST NIGHT story. To begin with, I find geoff john’s multi colored emotion based rings to be unconvincing as good science fiction. Just not my thing really. However, his run on Action Comics and JSA was TRULY TRULY GREAT WORK. His brainiac arc for action comics to me is his best written work. i’ve never found any of his GL stuff to be any good. Peter Tomasi’s GLC is better.
Correction,IT TOOK … Correction,IT TOOK ALL THE REMAINING DC HEROES IN THE MULTIVERSE INCLUDING THE ZOO CREW THAT WERE NOT INFECTED OR DEAD TO WEAKEN Maandrak.
Hey for your info, … Hey for your info, before the GLs stepped in to deliver the final blow, it took the combined might OF ALL THE SUPERMEN FROM THE ENTIRE MULTIVERSE TO WEAKEN the Dark monitor re-animated by Mandraak’s blood. IT WASN’T EVEN MANDRAAK HIMSELF. This was a lesser monitor than Mandraak. Face it man, guardians are as powerful as tacos to Maandraak. Hold the onions.
WTF!!
why doesnt … WTF!!
why doesnt anyone want to talk about how
Bruce Wayne’s Head comes to play in all of this
and the fact that Bruce is still live!
Liverpool, Myself, … Liverpool, Myself, went to CNS, now I go to Le Moyne, I am Senior there.
Interesting to know I was kinda suspicious because of your accent.
I wouldn’t … I wouldn’t recommend it. You will probably be lost if you pick up Blackest Night. You definitely need to have knowledge of Green Lantern to get what is going down with all the other Lanterns.
This was a good … This was a good show, I think anytime you guys review all DC books, you should do the show without Pete. All he does is talk about how much DC books “suck”.
Black Lanterns are like Pete’s polar opposite — a Marvel Zombie.
So alex based on … So alex based on what your wife said about Blackest Night are you say that i as a person who has never picked up an issue of green lantern would get and enjoy this story. I wouldn’t need to buy the the lantern stories that ran up to this one.
The 2 issues of … The 2 issues of Superman Beyond alone can overshadow all the events of Blackest Night. Superman has literally dealt with the very housing (overvoid)of (DCU )reality. Mandraak was/is the ultimate Dark Lord of the DCU. Mandraak could eat and out guardians in a blink like nothing.
Being a DC outsider … Being a DC outsider and having picked up B.N, I too did not feel ANY emotional connection to any characters. Nothing like seeing Goliath die in civil war, or having Rick lose a hand. QUICK!! WHO UNDERSTOOD THAT!!!?
I’m excited to see how this all unfolds.
Yay my Tweet got … Yay my Tweet got mentioned! Thanks guys.
That is the best thing I’m looking forward to this event. (Other then the fantastic story and art) Is seeing the ridiculous Golden Age and Obscure Heroes/Villains.
