Green Lantern: Blackest Night

bn_0_oroboros_dcp_001One of my sillier hobbies is the enjoyment of comic books.  I hold they are an excellent medium which is often underrated. In recent times both DC and Marvel have had crossover events some good and some bad; Final Crisis, Infinite Crisis, Civil War, Dark Reign, Annihilation, Skrull Invasion, etc.  There is one event coming up which does look extremely promising: Blackest Night.

Seven universal armies, powered by emotional spectrum of light, battling each other.  Each with their own goals, powers, weaknesses and tactics.  One of the more interesting of the forces is that of the Black Lanterns – who are all deceased Heroes and Villains turned into a zombie like state.

The dead who shall rise are mostly unconfirmed at this point in time but a few have been worked out.

  • Superman (Earth 2)
  • Aquaman
  • Martian Manhunter
  • Batman

Other possibilities, drawing on clues;

  • Ralph Digby
  • Sue Digby
  • Mirror Master
