I probably shouldn't have spent all day reading comic books...

Blackest Night
Larfleeze is the cutest character ever in the universe.


How could you ever resist a face like that?  So cute I don't even

Mogo is the most badass character ever in the universe.

Except for the part where it didn’t show up to beat the shit out of Xanshi. I MEAN COME ON. PLANET ON PLANET BATTLE. EVEN INVADER ZIM HAD TO BOW BEFORE SUCH AN AWESOME IDEA.

Sinestro is the most annoying character ever in the universe. JESUS CHRIST BUDDY. I KNOW YOU LOST YOUR FRIEND NOW SHUT THE FUCK UP!  CRIMINY

Boston Brand has the coolest name ever in the universe. Also, he’s back from the dead. Neat? I hope so.

However, I was not aware his superwhite skin was a suit. That was weird. And he has… red eyes? What…

The Guardians… are the most interesting characters ever in the universe. I mean… what’s their motivation. What are they even there for, and how did all those other ones split off. Why didn’t they start freaking out when the one wondered off like, “LOL gonna raise Black Hand and end the universe, hope you guys don’t mind.” Seems like that would have caused quite a stir… I guess because they were kind of in denial? That’s what it seemed like to me, but I’m not really sure…

Sayd/Ganthet. Oh god… I ship it… D:

Mnnff kkfftt is a weird sound effect for coming back to life… Whoever picked that anyway?

HAHA LUTHOR WAS SO CUTE AS AN ORANGE LANTERN. But not as cute as Larfleeze. No one is as cute as Larfleeze.

The Antimonitor powering the battery twist was… eh… IDK, didn’t care for it really. Seemed kind of out of nowhere and just complicated an already complicated story.

Also, why… did they have Dove all WHITE LIGHT at everyone when… she wasn’t involved in the final thing with THE ENTITIY. Seems a little counterintuitive.

Speaking of which, BAWWW HANK IS BACK WITHOUT DON. ): Poor guys.

Speaking of speaking of which, WHO GOT RESURRECTED? Was it just those guys in the long panel or...? Shhh, I am not just asking because I want to know whether Vic came back.

Rambly Interlude Go: I’m actually pretty conflicted on the subject of him coming back. I mean, pro - more Vic. Con - negating one of the most well-written death scenes I’ve ever read as well as the entire dichotomous relationship of Renee and Vic’s storyline in 52. Renee is learning how to live happily. Vic is, in some ways, learning how to die peacefully. THAT SEEMS REALLY IMPORTANT TO ME. IDK WHY. Also, future readers won’t get the same emotional reaction out of the story if they know Vic came back a few years later.

CONFLICTEDDDDDDD /End Interlude

If only a few people got resurrected, then what happened to all the other Black Lanterns? If Vic isn’t alive, does that mean we’ll get more zombie!Vic? I might be persuaded to be okay with that… But actually, I just want to know what happened to them all after Nekron asploded.

Why did Max Lord get a nosebleed? Did I miss something somewhere?

OSIRIS??????

Earth being the origin of life made me… just… shake my head. Oh, we self-important humans. Of course we make Earth the origin of life. :\

Speaking of which, these panels seemed really… biblical.


Love = Adam and Eve. Avarice = The Snake. Rage=Cain killing Abel. I dunno if that’s what they meant. That’s just the way it came across to me.

Dead is dead, huh? Yeah okay whatever DC.

FUCK YEAH BRUCE IS COMING BACK /FIST PUMP Not that I ever really doubted it but… confirmation is nice

Black Hand…? UM WELL… They made him out to be really important, even if he came across as a wangsty teenager to me most of the time, and then he… wasn’t. WELL HE WAS important at the very veryyyyyy end of the plot but other then that… he kind of just whined at everyone the couple of times he was on panel.

BUT THEN THE INDIGO TRIBE STOLE HIM AND NOW HE’S A COMPASSION ZOMBIE???????? WHAT?

Star Sapphire chick and Wonder Woman looked the same for the entire second half of the storyline. Long dark haired women in pink bathing suits… IDK, was there another difference I was supposed to notice?

I’m glad they’re continuing the Flash with Brightest Day, because I really am curious about him now. Barry!Flash, I mean. At least… I think Barry!Flash. He was the one who got the ring right? /comics noob

This is the funniest panel in the comic, and I’m sure they didn’t mean it to be ffffff


And this is the freakiest. Homg, wtf is happening to Hal’s mouth and Parallax and O MY GAWD NOOOO.


However, it was also super effective, I think. :|b Go artist. I choose you. Hngh HeartGold ilu

And this too. But only because WTF IS IN SPECTRE’S EYE FFFFFFUUUUU.


IS THAT SOME KIND OF SPECTRE POWER THING THAT I JUST DON’T KNOW ABOUT OR SOMETHING BECAUSE GOOD GOD IT FREAKED ME THE FUCK OUT LAKSJDFLKJ

That whole fight made me really curious about Hal and Parallax and everything. I might have to go track down some stuff with them…

And last but not least, the White Lanterns. Coooool. One of the coolest moves I’ve seen so far. I mean the speech leading up to it and then the whole thing with the ring telling people to live and all that. Very neat. A suitably epic ending for such an epic plot, I think. Except for this:

ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO DIDN’T COME BACK FROM THE DEAD DIDN’T TRY HARD ENOUGH. WE CHOSE IT SO WHY DIDN’T YOU /Nostalgia Critic

-_- I mean… really guys? I know that wasn’t actually what you intended it to sound like, but that’s totally what I got out of it. It was very strange, I have to say.

AND WHO WAS THAT GUY STANDING OVER THE CRATER???

A… alright… I think I’m done now… Ready for Brightest Day now, plzkthnx

OH BUT WAIT

Detective Comics 863
So… Uhhh… what was that story with Batwoman and Batman? Like I just… I don’t… Did it have a purpose or anything? I thought it was gonna be the same badguy they were after and there’d be fun Bat interaction… but then… no, it was two separate people and they didn’t even meet SO WHAT WAS THE POINT DC GDIT

Oh my god, Renee and Helena… are so cute… JUST KISS HER RENEE. IT’S NOT LIKE SHE HASN’T HANDLED ONE OF YOU QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU KNOW.

Damn Renee looks good in a suit. *A*

Who are all these people? Oolong Island is the one from 52 right? So is that chick the one that like… fell in love with the bipolar scientist and then went out to get killed by Black Adam but wasn’t? WHAT?

AND WHO IS THIS GUY. VANDAL SAVAGE. THAT’S THE GUY THAT’S IMMORTAL AND LIVING IN THE ~DISTANT FUTURE~ IN THE TIMM!VERSE RIGHT? WHEN DID RENEE OR HELENA MEET HIM?

Upon further research it seems… that there is a story out there with Renee that I HAVEN’T READ. THIS MUST BE RECTIFIED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE HNGH

Okay. I’m actually done now. And it’s three in the morning and I have homework ffffffff. Yay, not sleeping 8D
