Art: Overall, pretty solid. Especially the shift of the JLA themes, looked dark but well done. I also enjoyed the violence as this event feels like a major zombie outbreak. I also liked the Rogue stuff a lot, both sad, and well done. Flash family was solid too. What didn't work: Wonder Woman story is okay at best. To easy to guess what will happen. Also, some of the JLA story was boring. Overall, a pretty solid contributing chapter to a fun event. Volume 1 was better but this is a 3 out of 5. Dec 30, Bradley rated it it was amazing Shelves: fantasygraphic-novelsshelfsci-fi. I have to admit, I'm really liking the storyline now. This kinda kicks the whole Marvel Zombies in Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Vol. 1 ass. There's some real stories going on and it really warms the cockles. It's Flash all the way, baby. Feb 28, Sesana rated it liked it Shelves: comicssuperhumans. I'll get JSA out of the way: didn't care for it. This is probably because I had little to no background in these characters and the team in general, at least in Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Vol. 1. On the other hand, I really enjoyed the Flash storyline, even though I'm on shaky ground there when it comes to backstory. Maybe it's because the Rogues, at least and , are getting interesting to me, and the writing did a good job of juxtaposing Flash and Captain Cold. The Wonder Woman story was, of course, my favorite, even though the storyline was much more fragmented. This was probably out of necessity: Wonder Woman ended up playing a fairly prominent role in the main Blackest Night story, so Rucka ended up writing her scenes scattered throughout instead of one storyline, like the Flash and JSA books. But I really enjoy his take on Wonder Woman, so I still really liked it. As a whole, this collection rates 3. Apr 16, Stephen rated it really liked it Shelves: graphic-novels-and-comicszombies. I will repeat some of what I have said before. Blackest Night is possibly the best event in comics at the very least it is the best I have read so far. So, Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Vol. 1 book does continues the more personal, Earth-bound perspective of the epic space war going on as part of the Blackest Night. Like the previous volume, it gets very personal and deeply emotional. This volume includes some of the best battles in the non-space centered collections in Blackest Night. There are lots of crazy surprises. In short, this is brilliant comic writing. May 13, Shannon Appelcline rated it liked it Shelves: comicscomics-dc. The JSA story offers nice reminders of the team's origins and the Jesse Quick plotline is even quite touching, but beyond that there's the usual zombie fighting and a one-time deus ex machina [6. Better than its predecessor, but still mediocre. Jan 21, Nico rated it liked it Shelves: green-lanternscomics-and-graphic-novels. I liked some parts, I was bored through Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Vol. 1 parts. Quite a few parts. I admit I had to do some searching on some new faces for me and for some I had forgotten the details of. In general I just didn't get into this volume like I have through other collections from this event. There was very little adrenaline, I didn't have my emotions ripped out in the same way This probably had something to with the fact that I haven't read much of Flash on his own and that I'm rather ambivalent about Meh. This probably had something to with the fact that I haven't read much of Flash on his own and that I'm rather ambivalent about Wonder Woman as a character in general sorry Sarah so the foundation and love for the characters wasn't cemented in the same way it was when I read the Bats or Teen story arcs. Also I didn't give a single shit about The Rogues. They could've left out that entire plot line and I probably would've been happier. I did enjoy reading more of Flash though. I like the mix of humour with the deep care for their family and friends they all exhibit. I've been meaning to give Barry and Wally the time they deserve and pick up some of their individual runs to delve deeper into those arcs, so Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Vol. 1 definitely pushes me forward towards that. Overall though, this was a bit of a miss. Jan 11, Nicole Shelby rated it it was amazing Shelves: comics.

Commanding everyone else to stay away from his fight with , feels that HE is the savior of the universe and that Nekron cannot kill him. As they are watching, Hal, Carol, the Atomand Ganthet are amazed at the power that the White Entity has given Sinestro, which Ganthet claims is nothing less than the power of a god. Sinestro uses his white power to chain Nekron up, and in the same way as the Black Lanterns have been gaining power, Sinestro rips out Nekron's heart, essentially killing him. His ring commands him to rise, as a Black Lantern picks up his scythe and Black Lantern Power Battery, the Black Lantern transforms into Nekron, who continues his battle against Sinestro, and continues to try to rip out the entity from Sinestro's body. The other Lanterns notice that Sinestro is losing control of the entity, with Hal citing that Sinestro's ego is what is powering the entity, not his will to survive, and even considers joining with the entity, but Ganthet tells him that it will reject him as it is doing to Sinestro.

He tells Hal that Nekron is sentient blackness and that the reason why he's wreaking havoc is because he has created a connection to the land of the living: through Black Hand. He tells him that in order to stop Nekron, they have to bring Black Hand back to life, but Hal doesn't know how to do that, when Deadman leaves Guy's body, leaving Guy with the same information that Deadman just told Hal. Guy then leads the other Lanterns in a charge against Nekron. But Nekron doesn't strike back at them, he manages to separate Sinestro from the White Entity, and tells Hal that it was he who allowed him to come back to life, just like all the other heroes who died and came back to life. Hal retorts that while Nekron may have opened the door back to the living, he was the one who walked through that door and came back to life, but Black Hand attacks him from behind, saying that life has no purpose, no meaning, when Flash saves him, telling Black Hand that life doesn't give them purpose, they give life purpose. Superman then heads towards Hal threatening to kill him, but Hal reminds him that he was killed by Doomsdaybut he returned to life. Hal then heads towards the Entity and bonds with him, saying that when the resurrected were given the chance, they all chose life over death. Now that he is alive again, the Anti-Monitor is no longer Nekron's prisoner and power source, so he unleashes his power on him, but it has no effect on the of death, who attacks the Anti-Monitor and sends him back to the Antimatter Universe.

When Mera asks her husband if they are dead, he just simply replies no, and they have a heartfelt embrace. As that's happening, Hawkgirl looks at Hawkman and goes by the different names she has been referred to in all of her lives, meaning she remembers everything from their times with the Justice Society and Justice League. They then kiss each other, as Superman tells Martian that he's alive, which J'onn answers that it would appear so. Jason remembers Ronnie killing his girlfriend Gen in Blackest Night 3. As Ronnie asks the Flash where Professor Stein is, we hear Henry Hallthe original Hawk, telling everyone around him not to touch him, with Dove trying to calm him down. Guy then catches , thinking that he's still a Black Lantern, but notices that his nose is bleeding and releases him, only for him to disappear. Then, we see Superboy wondering who Amon Tomaz is, when Kid Flash tells him that he's Osiris, who tells them both that he wants to go home. But, he's not the only one as Professor Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Vol. 1 goes home as well before the Flash can catch him.

Hal tells him that Ganthet believes that there's a bigger picture to it all, and that the dead shall now remain dead, except for Batman. Hal also mentions that when Nekron resurrected Batman as a Black Lantern, he didn't recognize anyone, which means that what said is right, Batman is still alive. Barry then asks Hal about the White Entity and where it has gone. Hal tells him that because he was connected to the entity, he can still feel it out there, urging everyone to break away from the past and the Blackest Night, and into tomorrow, and into the .
