Bl(e)ackest Night
DC Does Zombies.
In the finest tradition of DC copying Marvel who have a Zombieverse series this year sees them rising the dead in "Bl(e)ackest Night".
Most of the PR images for the Green Lantern connected groups of other Lanterns who will be involved in this are striking and well done and even intriguing for non GL Corps fans but unfortunately the rest of the DCverse is being dragged into this.
Zombie fans are undoubtedly enjoying the gross out Zombie Terra kissing Beast Boy PR image but the older and hopefully wiser are perhaps thinking HOW could DC do something so predictable!
Spolier alert. Well you probably know most of these from the unsubtle hints dropped but it looks like these characters are rising from their graves to join the restless dead.
However for those of you who havnt had time to check Newsarama lately:
Definitely
Earth-2 Superman killed off in Infinite Crisis
Jonn Jones the Martian Manhunter
Aquaman
Ronnie Firestorm Raymond
A high probability of Nightwing's parents the Flying Graysons.
Terra of the Teen Titans and possibly other dead Titans.
Prepare to be grossed out this summer.
Personally I'm waiting to and would rather see if they manage do a World War Zombie movie without losing the ironic aspects of the book.
Bl(e)ackest Night and Cosmic Zombies
... perhaps not an entirely original concept?
