    The Reviews are Right

     I am new to this bandwagon. After buying and being burned by the Final Crisis, I have to admit that I was nervous to go with another Company wide mega event. I have ignored Dark Reign over at Marvel, and I was just not that excited, no matter the hype. I figured that since both the Titans and Batman are being dragged into this, and this book itself seems to bthe single most reviewed book in Comicvine history, I would give it a shot. 
      I am gad I did. This book reads like a very very good horror movie. It's beginning set up to remind us who the characters who died are. Heck, at one point Green Lantern just makes a hologram of them. With a cus on Ralph and Sue Dibney, of course that serves the pay off later.  
      It is the latter half the has the HOLY SH*T moments, and they are nailbiters.  Once ain here is another positive review of the first issue of the mini series. If their is anyone more dense than I am and are still refung to pick this up. Do yourself a big favor and go get this book.

      So, there's this thing called Blackest Night. Have you heard of it? It's this little thing. This is the DC Event of the Summer says everyone who seems to love DC. It's a big story and there is a lot of information to get across in the first issue and it's got so many place changes and stories going on that it became a little annoying. It's the anniversary of the Death of Superman and due to the fact that Superman is now alive it's treated as a day to remember the fallen heroes of the past, perfe...
