DC Releases huge BRIGHTEST DAY Cover Montage. Can You Spot the Hints?

In an effort to pump some life into an otherwise boring and incoherent story DC unveiled this beautiful BRIGHTEST DAY cover montage featuring all the key players in this "saga."  The covers fit together into this massive piece of art that teases what may come out of this story.  Click the image above to see it in all it's glory.

I could care less about the events that may or may not unfold in this series since to date it has been painfully underwhelming, but the art of this HUGE cover montage is wonderful.  This colossal spread features figures by the very talented Ryan Sook, with additional artistry from Fernando Pasarin and Joel Gomez (and a guiding hand from Co-Publisher Jim Lee, natch)

DC's the Source teases, "what does it all mean? Too early to tell, but all the more reason to spend a few more minutes enlarging the image below."  Do you care?

DC Comics Unveils White Lantern Batman? What Does it Mean?

DC Comics released the following image today.  Its the cover to an upcoming issue of Brightest Day done by David Finch, but that's hardly the important part. 

The important part is that you are looking at a White Lantern Version of Batman.  Those of you following Brightest Day know that the story involves the search for a new White Lantern.  But could it REALLY be Bruce Wayne?

Remember that in Blackest Night we were teased with a Black Lantern Batman that actually turned out to be a clone of Batman created by Darkseid and not Bruce Wayne himself.  Is this yet another cheap gimmick thrown at DC's readership in an effort to sell cool action figures, or does anyone actually believe that Bruce Wayne will return to become the permanent White Lantern?

FIRST LOOK: BRIGHTEST DAY #7 - Why "the 12" Came Back

Geoff Johns promised that the answer to why "the 12" were resurrected at the end of BLACKEST NIGHT would be revealed in BRIGHTEST DAY #7.  This series, thus far, has been a disappointment for me.  I was hoping for a weekly series on par with 52, but unfortunately it has not lived up that standard.  I am not giving up on this series because Johns and Tomasi are two of the best writers in comics.  Let's hope the "big reveal" on Wednesday gives this story the boost it needs to keep all our interests.  Enjoy the preview of BRIGHTEST DAY #7 below.

Another BP Oil Casualty

Just when you think the oil spill in the gulf couldn't get any worse.  Today, Gfest found out that the world lost an American Hero.  Much like many of the sea creatures and native birds of the coast, Aquaman could not survive the dramatic effect the oil had on the sea.  

Damn it, just when Arthur returned via Blackest Night, he's gone.  What was the purpose of bringing him back?  I guess only Deadman and the White Lantern know the real purpose.  RIP again Arthur Curry.

New Green Lantern #54 Variant Cover

Gfest is very excited that Green Lantern #54 hits the shelves today.

In this action packed issue Geoff Johns and artist Doug Mahnke continue to tell the tales of the New Guardians as they adapt to Earth and its people — plus the return of a fan-favorite brawler.

Plus, we will findout what Sinestro's up to? 

In a special twist we will read about a special mission the White Power Battery send Hal Jordan on that he won’t be so happy to complete.
