Blackest Night: Rise of the Black Lanterns #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection gathers the tie-in issues from DC's 2009-2010 Blackest Night event, focusing on the emergence of the Black Lantern Corps and the resurrection of deceased heroes and villains as undead soldiers. Featuring stories that spotlight characters like the Flash, Green Arrow, and the Atom, it explores how various corners of the DC Universe cope with the emotional spectrum-fueled chaos unleashed by the Black Lanterns' rise. Written by Geoff Johns and others, this volume bridges the main event with its far-reaching consequences across the DCU.
In "Bye Bye Birdie!", Superboy battles a Black Lantern ring that’s hijacking his mind and forcing him to fight Wonder Girl—only to find a way to break free by summoning Krypto and sending Cassie to the Fortress of Solitude. With help from his loyal dog and a clever use of freeze breath, Conner outsmarts the ring’s control, turning the tide in a fight that hinges on memory, identity, and the power of a single clue. Written by Tony Bedard and illustrated by Travis Moore, with inks by Dan Green, Keith Champagne, and Bob Wiacek, and colors by Brian Buccellato, this 2011 issue features a striking cover by Rodolfo Migliari and Jerry Ordway.
In "Bye Bye Birdie!", Ray stands guard as Indigo-1 reaches out to the Indigo Tribe, urging them to gather every member of the various Corps and bring them to Earth—where they’ll need every ally to stand against the rising threat of the Black Lantern Corps.
In "Deadman Walking," Phantom Stranger and Blue Devil aid Deadman as he struggles to free his decaying corpse from the grip of a Black Lantern ring. As the spectral hero confronts the grim truth, he discovers the so-called "white light" offers no salvation against Nekron’s growing darkness.
In "What Did Black Lantern Superboy Do?", Conner Kent battles a twisted version of himself, forced by a Black Lantern ring to fight Wonder Girl. As his mind fractures under the ring's control, he finds a fragile way to fight back—using Krypto and a desperate clue to guide Cassie to the Fortress, where a shocking twist in the healing chamber may be the key to breaking the ring's hold.
