    The most interesting one was Deadman.  That shocked me.  The ring passed right through him and I assumed he got skipped.  Everyone else, not so much.

    I hope Aquaman has his powers so he can actually control water.  Similar to his Batman:Brave and the Bold incarnation.

    People might forget Professor Zoom is already in Iron Heights, now there is another Reverse Flash zooming around. This is kind of a problem

    I'm happy to see most of them back. We might actually have a Justice League that doesn't look like Teen Titans and whatever characters have similar power-sets to iconic JLA members. That has been absurdly disappointing.
     
    I really do feel like it's just Geoff Johns trying to justify years worth of worthlessly killing off characters for shock value and them being brought back 2 issues later. Despite the fact that Johns killed off dozens of characters and has now brought nearly all of them back all within the same series. Nice.

    Out of all the revives, I am glad the Hawks are back. Maybe they will get another series again. I am going to miss Kendra, though. Besides Aquaman and Martian Manhunter, the rest of the revives just seemed weird to me. Jade is going to make Corps interesting, and the return of the old Hawk can be a good or bad thing, depending on the writer, but Deadman being alive? Don't want to sound like a broken record(everyone is posting about this in the thread it seems) but how IS he going to work now? Isn't his only power possession? Never really knew anything about the character to begin with, but meh.
     
    Overall, great issue. Curious as to what Brightest Day is going to do to the DCU, though.

    The white light sucks - Captain Boomerang, Max Lord, Prof Zoom, Hank Hall are all killers.  The sooner Red Robin, Wonder Woman, Flash and Atom Smasher kill these guys again the better.

    I am so glad that Hawkman and Hawkgirl are back (and he fixed Hawkgirl so she remembers every thing like Hawkman and has long hair again) I am also glad that Aquaman is back but weres his water hand.
    If DC gives them books I will buy them

    @Benzo:  Osiris is the brother of Isis.  and a member of the Black Adam family.  He was killed by his "friend" during 52.

    I'm really interested in seeing what they do with Firestorm.  Will Jason blame Ronnie for Gehenna's death?  Which one is still the primary host for Firestorm?  Do they share it now?  Can they each pick a new individual to merge with?  Are they stuck merging with eachother?

    I'd say that it happens before since in Blackest Night: Flash Professor Zoom is already in jail
     
    there are now 2 Professor Zoom's in the current DC Universe, the one that came back from the future in Rebirth that's in jail and the newly resurrected Zoom from Blackest Night #8

    Well, at least we have plot lines for the future. AM is back in business, Deadman is out of a job, and lots of old heroes (and villains) are reintroduced into continuity. Although some of them seem rather pointless (Osiris, really? His death in 52 was too important to wipe off the board) and odd (didn't Hank Hall die as Extant?).
