Brightest Day Volume 3

I came out of this volume with one thought.   The white lantern is a dick.  It brought heroes back to life just so it could kill them, it brought villains back to kill heroes and it used Deadman to make these things happen.  And then it gets to take time to tell Hawk why he failed in the mission to kill himself.  All in all it seemed a convuluted way to bring Swamp Thing back to the DC universe.

Brightest Day Volume 2

It's weird reading this after reading some of the new 52 titles.  Things that I'm used to aren't happening.  Loved the intro of the new Aqualad.  I've been watching Young Justice and I know they drew inspiration for that character from here.  I like seeing Aquaman with a range of emotions.  Deadman not being dead is still odd though.

Brightest Day Volume One

I enjoyed Darkest Night so I thought I'd pick up the obvious sequel.

Poor Deadman.  It's tough to find your way when your whole thing was that you were dead and now you're alive.  It sort of defeats his purpose.

I didn't realise this was just the set up though.  The series is longer than I thought it was going to be.  I'll pick up the next one because I want to see how it all ends up.  I suspect there might be another volume coming called No Evil Shall Escape My Sight though.
