BACKROUND
Blackest Night is a forthcoming American comic book company-wide crossover event published by DC Comics. Written by Geoff Johns and pencilled by Ivan Reis Blackest Night follows Green Lantern: Rebirth and Sinestro Corps War as the third part of a trilogy throughout the Green Lantern comics. The storyline was first revealed at the conclusion of Sinestro Corps War and is scheduled to begin on July 15, 2009.

The crossover was first mentioned at the conclusion of the Sinestro Corps War in Green Lantern #25. As the war between the Green Lantern and Sinestro Corps reaches its climax, the four Green Lanterns of Earth (Hal Jordan, Guy Gardner, John Stewart and Kyle Rayner) are told by the Guardians Ganthet and Sayd of the "Blackest Night" prophecy. According to the prophecy, the two existing Corps would be joined by five new ones, each driven by a specific emotion and empowered by a specific color of the emotional spectrum, leading to an all-out war of light that would end up destroying the universe.

Shortly after the defeat of the Sinestro Corps, the Anti-Monitor is transported to an unspecified location, recently revealed to be space sector 666. He is recognized by a dark voice that bids him rise. Too weak to resist or escape, he is engulfed by a Black Power Battery. The teaser proclaimed that "...the armies of fear and willpower must come together, because across the Universe, the dead will rise." A rotted hand was shown coming out of the ground with a black ring on its finger. The symbol on the ring is of Green Lantern villain Black Hand.

Both Geoff Johns and Ethan Van Sciver have stated that Blackest Night will be the third part of a Green Lantern War Of Light: Trilogy that began with Rebirth and continued with Sinestro Corps War. In an interview with IGN, Johns stated that he has the monthly Green Lantern book plotted up until issue #55, which (presuming there are little or no delays in the book) would come out in June of 2010.

More details for the event are revealed in DC Universe #0, which also sets the stage for most of the DCU line in 2008-2009. DC Universe #0, which bridged the story between Countdown #1 and Final Crisis #1, depicts Green Lantern villain Black Hand discovering the black power battery on a distant planet.

Blackest Night will feature Aquaman, as DC's Executive Editor Dan DiDio explained: "Aquaman’s storyline picks up again in Blackest Night, and what happens following that is a key story beat of Blackest Night."

Blackest Night #0 will be released on Free Comic Book Day 2009, and recaps the key moments from the Sinestro Corps War and Rage of the Red Lanterns that led to Blackest Night, and will give readers everything they need to know about the Green Lantern universe, their ongoing War of Light, and their dark days ahead. Ivan Reis will leave the Green Lantern monthly title with the beginning of Blackest Night to focus on the mini-series and a later project involving Geoff Johns. When Blackest Night begins and Reis leaves the main Green Lantern title, he will be replaced by Doug Mahnke.

The crossover is preceded by two crucial "Prelude to Blackest Night" storylines in Green Lantern Corps #33-#38, called "Emerald Eclipse" and Green Lantern #39-#42, called "Agent Orange". "Emerald Eclipse" in Green Lantern Corps chronicles Mongul's conquering of Daxam and his elevation to the leadership of the Sinestro Corps, all while the rogue Guardian Scar uses an imprisoned Red Lantern to start a riot in the scicells between the Green Lanterns and their prisoners from the Sinestro Corps War. "Agent Orange" in Green Lantern, which runs parallel to "Emerald Eclipse," introduces the Orange Lanterns and sets the final stage for the "War of Light" and subsequent "Blackest Night."

It has been announced that the story arc will consist of the Free Comic Day issue, an eight issue, self titled limited series; issues of both Green Lantern and Green Lantern Corps starting with the issues shipping in July; and a hand full of 3 issue limited series which will bear the title Blackest Night:... Titles and shipping months for some of the three issue titles have been announced as: Tales of the Corps with all three issues shipping for July; Batman, Superman, and Titans which will begin in August; and Wonder Woman and other unspecified titles shipping from November.

PLOT
At the grave of Bruce Wayne in Gotham City, Hal Jordan and Barry Allen reflect on Batman's death and how the hero community is avoiding linking Wayne and Batman.

This reflection turns to the pair looking at their own deaths, comparing the sadness that Barry's engendered in others while Hal's produced anger. Hal sums it up by telling Barry, "I died a sinner. You died a saint." The conversation moves on to the world becoming "more dangerous" after Barry's death and observing that the deaths of Arthur Curry and Martian Manhunter cost the Justice League its "heart and soul". As they leave the cemetery, Barry expresses hope that their dead comrades will be returned to them. He specifically cites Batman noting, "If there's an escape, you can bet Batman's already planning it."

Black Hand approaches the grave saying "Yes. This one." He then pushes his hand through the ground in front of the headstone and forcibly extracts a skull from the grave. He then begins to recite:


“ The Blackest Night falls from the skies...
...the darkness grows as all light dies...
...we crave your hearts and your demise...
...by my Black Hand--the dead shall rise! ”​


Interspersed with this are scenes of the headstones of Ralph and Sue Dibny and Ronnie Raymond.

While reciting the oath, Black Hand's ring begins to glow and swirl as light shines in the eyes of the skull he is holding. Guardian Scar is shown watching and grinning.

I think the twist in this story is that some emotions can work with others. Think about it. Hope and Greed aren't that different.Greed is almost the extreme of hoping for something.

Hal Jordan is damn bitch to me.He tried to be smart and Agent O really just said "FucC that!Run yo gotdamn ring bitch!!!" :angry:
 
Just this!

I've been reading GL and GLC since "Sinestro Corp War" and they've been really good. I actually stopped with GL whent they went into the "Secret Origins" storyline but I kept buying GLC since they were building up to "Blackest Night". This is the best thing going in DC other than the long-time coming "Legion of Three Worlds". Other than those two stories, I don't really read DC and "Final Crisis" almost drove me completely away.
 
It's not all that bad. He's a green latern.

People have died, son. Died during this Sinestro war and probably more in Blackest Night set. Good laterns that was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Now, if Hal going to tap out(bitch out) the fight cause he missing an arm. He better shut the fuck up and be happy somebody removed the blue ring he was bitching about. He shoulda been careful what he asked for.

Plus, he got an advantage. His ring should become stronger in the presence of a blue latern. Now, Larefleeze is a blue latern. If Hal is smart he'll use that to his advantage and chop of Larefleeze legs and the arm that doesn't have the blue ring. Then use his cut-off arm as a club just beat the shit out of Larefleeze. And straight own his ass. And take Larefleeze orange ring. And to top it off keep Larefleeze on life-support and carry him around in a bubble since the blue ring gives a green latern that extra power boost and no one should be able to mess with Hal. Go a step further and cut off his hand on the arm that's missing and wear it around his neck to forever remember that day he grew his balls back.

No Guardian will dare try to check him after witnessing some shit like that.

But for now, Hal Jordan you are officially demoted, son. Hell, Ion gave his life cause he believed in his duty to protect and help, that is the duty of the green latern. Man up Hal Jordan and let all those latern deaths not be in vain.

Sorry, I'm just a bit disappointed that he didn't move and instead took the blow from Larefleeze.

I never got the big love affair with Hal.I'm sure he'll end up as the "Big Hero" when all is said and done but I could care less if every other lantern takes turns kicking his ass.:angry:
