Blackest Night is hands down one of the best DC Events I have read. The dead rise to fight the living and the Lanterns are the only ones who can stop them. This whole event allows for Johns to introduce the rest of the Corps, resurrect some fan-favorite characters, and deliver a satisfying galaxy-spanning story. This story is absolutely incredible!
