Well, I’ve been a green lantern fan since forever, and even though my favourite lantern is Hot head Guy Gardner, and Sinestro I keep as #2.

Wow!!!! How time flies. Hard to believe it’s been like 3 years (if memory serves me well) since the Blackest Night was first hinted in Sinestro Corps War series and the end of the war. I so loved how it was hinted with the grave yard scene with one hand above ground (Black corps) - Epic.

The next series that followed was Rage of the Red Lanterns, following the aftermath of the Sinestro war. I liked how Sinestro, tried to convey to H.Jordan that even though he was now imprisoned for crimes he committed during the Sinestro War and lost the battle against the Green L.corps he won the WAR. By Driving The Guardians to inact a new law that ultimately changed the corps forever. Also mentioned in the series were other Corps introduction - Red Lanterns (Atrocitus's origin and revenge on Sinestro, Blue and Violet. And once again Sinestro (my #2 :wink:) driving Hal Jordan ( so called the greatest of them all) to succumb to his emotions, hence leading to him joining the Red Corps has he had great rage. Even though his membership with Atrocitus and Co. was short lived, I enjoyed it nonetheless.

To me, if I had to choose between all comics. Will forever be a G.Lantern fan and will definitely go for Blackest Night. I got the impression Blackest Night had so many Tie-ins unlike the predecessors, I might be wrong. Moreover, I've been on a long comic book reading hiatus - busy, busy, busy. I so need to get back on board. ;)


Fingers Crossed.

I'm going to go with Batman AA. After the game, more batman in the setting would be awesome.
