you should be fine with the brightiest day title in my humble opinion, maybe also green lantern

the recent tie in issues are awesome. Love the new Corps issue.

I love the idea about a new JLI comic with Generation Lost but its just not hittiong the spot for me. As much as i dont want to admit it im not liking Generation Lost, ill keep getting the issues hoping for more but now not so much

The titles that aren't Generation Lost or Lantern related are getting boring..

I'm talking about Brightest Day related, I'm in love with Batman and Robin right now. "

@Gearo:
I think that you're probably on to something there
Hal would be a great White Lantern....I mean, sure we still dont' know exactly what they do, but still

if anyone should be, it's him!

"so which ones are the VITAL issues to pick up? i dont have the movie to pick up all of them but i wanna get the entire story. any help? "

How does anyone know if Hal would be a great White Lantern or not?  It's not even clear what a White Lantern can do.

"The key to beating Nekron is by resurrecting Black Hand – okay, that’s not a bad idea. As villains’ Achilles’ heels go, perfectly serviceable. So, how do the heroes figure this out? Well, Deadman shows up in the last issue and tells them.

…

No, really. That’s what happens. If you want to hammer home the point that Hal Jordan – who’s the pointman for this entire saga – is a freaking idiot and a terrible superhero, I can’t think of a better way to do it than double-underlining the fact that he basically charged into a fight with an evil god of death with one plan that somebody else told him would work that didn’t work, and then stuck around when that didn’t work, only to get saved when somebody else comes up with a plan for him to do something."

I like that ^^^.
For me Hal barely gets 5th place on my favourite Lanterns.

1. Kyle
2. Guy
3. Kilowog
4. Sodam
5. Hal/Stewart
   

Damn, Mogo and Salaak are there. Hal is out the top 5!!

Can anyone tell me  who is doing what segements in terms of art on BD?  To be honest I can't really tell except for some Reis parts here and there.

FINALLY!! 
 
Generation Lost GETS GOOD!!!

no it hasnt "

it's only issue 3 in a 26 issue series....there's still a lot of time for stuff to happen

" is anyone getting tired of Brightest day? I know it was supposed to be different but for all three issues so far it feels like they just keep cirlcing around the same things for each character.
 
.....
 
 If it doesnt pick up in the next two issues im just gonna stop buying it and follow the other GL books, i dont have enough money to waste it on 26 issues of filler. "

Not the greatest of issues but i liked it

It just hasnt been as appealing or entertaining as the other tie ins and or BD issues themselves. I still like it but not my favs "

Definitely agree with Gerald and Degraaf.
 
The Martian Manhunter plotline is the only interesting thing that is happening in the main book.  That and arguably the Aquaman plot.  Hawkman/Hawkgirl's plot is a snoozer, Firestorm isn't actually doing anything and neither is Hawk.
 
On the other hand, Maxwell Lord changed the memories of everybody on the planet to escape.  He murdered the JLI's friend and now he's getting away with it.  We get to see a group of fun, beloved characters chasing down an incredibly intelligent and devious murdered.  Generation Lost is a better book than Brightest Day on charm alone.  Add the fact that they're actually DOING SOMETHING to the mix and that they actually have a bad guy you want them to catch and the story is 50 times better.

I disagree it's been far more entertaining we've gotten to see the good ol JLI group together under Keith Giffen to stop Maxwell Lord the very guy who started them. I'd say it's way better than the main Brightest Day title which sucks ass. "

"Am I the only one who is enjoying the Firestorm arc? "

Moving too slowly is relative, I suppose. The problem may not be so much the pacing, as it is with the "economy of the storytelling". For instance, Brightest Day number 4 had two double page spreads (for a total of 4 pages) and 4 splash pages (two full splash images and two splashes with a panel inset), a total of 8 pages consuming over 1/3 of the book. There is a whole lot of missed storytelling opportunity there. If the pacing were tightened up a little this thing could be over in 12-16 issues pretty easily.  It feels very much like they're asking us to stay onboard for 4-5 drawn out , semi-related 6 issues minis sold as one book instead of one engaging 26-issue maxi-series.  A jaded person may see this as nothing more than a money grab.
 I loved Blackest Night, I was enthusiastic when this began, I still support DC, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to give the rest of this one a pass. After 4 issues I expect I should actually have a broader idea of what the story is about and a clearer indication of where this thing is going. Instead we've been treated to some awesome scenes and great art, but no real cohesive story.

I am  Also, really people? Things are moving too slowly? It still has 10 months to go and 20 issues at that, of course it won't move as fast as a monthly series "

"I expect my average monthly series to last more than 20 issues."

HOLY CRAP LOVING GENERATION LOST NOW!!

oh wow I think I just got a little teary eyed over Dex-Starr's back story

Poor Dex-Starr :(

This series is pretty good.
 

I'm actually getting tired of BD. It's nothing but a handful of set-ups, lead-ups and cliffhangers, with more splash pages and two page spreads that actually needed. There is no story moving along, just set-up after set-up after set-up.  
 
AND Green Lantern's being written in the same fashion now. Too bad.  
Geoff Johns is a great writer, so i don't know what gives... maybe he's being spread too thinly.

" oh wow I think I just got a little teary eyed over Dex-Starr's back story "

I love Dex-star!  His story was the best part of that issue.

That is a pretty awesome picture.  I wonder why it appears Hal Jordan is the White Lantern and not Dead Man?  I like how Ronnie and Jason are trying to bury the black lantern Firestorm.  Probably just promo art, but still cool.
