Don't miss the hottest event in comics as the biweekly BRIGHTEST DAY continues with the return of the Black Lanterns! Has time run out for our resurrected heroes? Plus, you must not miss the stunning origin of the new Aqualad, the battle between Aquaman and Black Manta, and the bizarre journey of Jason Rusch and Ronnie Raymond as they delve into the inner workings of the Firestorm matrix and uncover its secret!
Things are really starting to pick up in this series, as some of the characters seem plotted on a collision course. "Brightest Day" is closing in on its halfway point, and while I don't know exactly where it is going, I'm definitely interested in jumping in for the ride, much like Aquaman does to the unsuspecting truck driver in this issue. In the immortal words of Liz Lemon, "I want to go to there." Read Full Review
The art's pretty good, if uneven. We're 11 issues in, and the story is still awfully muddy. Again, it's great to see these characters return (that was long overdue), but we need more than that. Read Full Review
Good momentum. Good art. Interesting story. Some clunky writing. Read Full Review
As this series progresses, I keep getting stuck on the question of "What is the point?", and "Why does all this matter?". It makes a series, let alone an issue, hard to be invested and involved in, when you have no real sense of why it even matters, where it might be leading, etc. At this point, the only real excitement I have on where it's all going is that it's going to eventually have an ending, so it'll finally be over. I find the series to be extremely frustrating, because it has an issue or two where I think it might turn things around, and that it might actually prove to have a plan and be interesting in resolving it, and then we get issues like this, where I just find it maddening how little we're actually progressing towards any discernable point.
