    Everyone has there speculations on who may or may not return in Blackest Night but this thread is dedicated to those that have a 90-100% chance of coming back to life. Here's our candidates:    

    Those definitely coming back

     
    1. Aqua Man
    1. Aqua Man
    Proof in his return: The cover of Brightest Day #2
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     2. Jade
     2. Jade
    Proof in her return:  James Robinson's reveal at the Emerald City Comic Con.   
     
    "I have two years worth of 'Justice League' worked out now," Robinson told the crowd. "Like, I know the relationship Supergirl and Batman are gonna have, and I know the relationship of Starman and Jade and ... oooh. SHIT!"

    "So, anyway," said a grim Ian Sattler, DC's senior story editor. "Next question."

     
     
     
     
     
     

    Those that might come back

     
     1. Ronnie Raymond
     1. Ronnie Raymond
     Johns stated at the ECCC that Firestorm will be a key character in Brightest Day, though no word yet on whether it will be Jason or Ronnie.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     2. Hank Hall
     2. Hank Hall
      No word yet on anyone from DC if Hank is coming back but a few hints have been dropped. Such as Don saying that Hank can still be saved and this Birds of Prey cover:
    Could that outline be hank?
    Could that outline be hank?
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    That's it for now, I'll update as soon as I get more info.

    Yeah, Martian Manhunter will be another one. It seems to me that all of the mainstream Justice League members like Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Hawkman, Hawkgirl, Superman (From BN#5), Green Arrow (Also BN#5) so on and so forth. However, in the case of Superman and Green Arrow, they could have someone break the hold of the black rings in the Green Lantern #52 or Blackest Night #8 (like with Superboy (From Adventure Comics #7) and Kid Flash (BN Flash #3) had happen to them). Rumor has it though that Bruce will be return separately from Brightest Day in a special Batman story arc. Hopefully Brightest Day will be just as good, if not better than Blackest Night.

    he definetly still has his mind control powers but it looks like he was struggling to use them a bit while controlling Guy Gardner 
     
    Ive got all kinds of questions: 
     
    1. Whats going to happen with Kyle Rayner and Sinsetros daughter now that Jade is back? 
     
    2. What happened to the doctor that was a part of Fire storm and i guess the other guys g/f is dead for good? 
     
    3. Whats gonna happen with Osiris? 
     
    4. Why did Captain Boomerang come back but not his son? 
     
    5. Will Wonder Woman make the same decision twice about M. Lord? 
     
    6. Does Dead Man have any powers if he is alive? 
     
    I have more posted in the Blackest Night thread, you should all post in their so we can keep it all together

    I am glad all those characters came back (especially jade and martian martian manhunter) except for hawk I was hoping that the female hawk would come back instead.   
     
    Is anyone else  glad that hawkwoman came back instead of hawkgirl  (I am  a huge fan of ostander's run on hawkamn in the early 90's).

    I don't know if Boston Brand kept the powers he had as Deadman but he is the only one to keep his White Lantern ring,
