Blackest Night is just a wonderfully weaved and orchestrated tale by Geoff Johns and crew. Not only did it send the Green Lantern books and their accompanying titles into a spiral of undead mayhem, but it also drastically altered many other characters in books throughout the DCU, treading a path that answers questions pertaining to both life and death in the entire multiverse and beyond. With 6 issues out and two more to go along with the accompanying tie-ins, there's still plenty of emotion and death to look forward to before the whole series wraps up this March. Johns has already solidified himself as a big draw to the comic book public, and how he'll change the landscape of the DC Universe by the end of the mini remains to be seen. However, DC Comics isn't one to keep major news from being announced, and via their blog network called The Source, they've announced the follow up to what is already considered a classic to remember:
Heh, I could've told you guys that I saw this coming, but look and behold - the Brightest Day shall cometh!
Set to be a bi-weekly, 26 issue run, Brightest Day will obviously be the direct follow up to BN, beginning with issue #0 in April. Spearheaded by top GL book writers Geoff Johns and Peter Tomasi, this series already sounds promising, and should give faithful readers another reason to stick around and see what will happen after Nekron and his legions have been dealt with. This is indeed some major news to take in... and a whole new series to think about as 2010 rolls on!
