Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps, Vol. 2 by Geoff Johns
3.0
Having read the first volume, which focused on Batman, Superman, and the Titans, I thought I might enjoy this book equally or more. I've read the earlier Flash books more recently than almost anything else, and this was around the time where I found Wonder Woman the most interesting.
Alas, I thought all three of the stories were okay, but didn't rise to the level of their main series.
I understand it. Johns, who wrote The Flash section was writing the main Blackest Night book, plus Green Lantern, plus serving as overseer on the Green Lantern Corps and all of these side books. He was busy. And I believe the Flash book suffers because of it. Again, it's not terrible, it's just a dip in quality from his previous run, and not as fun as I remember Brightest Day being (but, oh, is it classic literature compared to Flashpoint).
I don't have any particular complaints against any of these stories, I just found them less interesting than some of the other side stories going on at the same time.
