END OF STORY ARC
Camera on. Mic check. Put the stream live. Hide the alien artifact that gives you superpowers. Wipe away the tears. And three, two, one...
Series writer KYLE HIGGINS is joined by Twitch superstar MEGHAN "STRAWBURRY17" CAMARENA and iconic artist GO I MONTES for a standalone story that reveals the secret origins of Radiant Pink!
Radiant Black has placed most of its focus on Marshall with a slight detour to get to know Red. Now we're getting a chance to know Pink and Yellow, and their story doesn't play out at all like I expected, though frankly, I didn't go in with many expectations. Read Full Review
Radiant Black #12closes out the series' first year by telling a standalone story focused on the secret origin of Radiant Pink. With Year Two slated to introduce new heroes, and a slate of new enemies, this series will only continue to build upon its reputation as one of the best superhero stories on the stands.

Radiant Black #12 reminds us that behind each of the fantastic radiant costumes is a human being with their own personal problems no matter their race or financial status. It's what continues to make this an amazing series and shows the true definition of being a hero. Read Full Review
Radiant Pink's origin ends up being tied into Radiant Yellow's, giving us a look into her life pre-alien powers, while hinting once more at a greater meta-plot building in the background. It's a new take that fits perfectly with what has gone before. Read Full Review
Carlomango delivers some great imagery in the issue. There is a fun, light tone to the art that is visually compelling. Read Full Review
It is really cool how Higgins tells us two origin stories in one issue, so we don't need to spend much time with it. And Supermassive Is coming, hell yeah!
Yellow's "Radiant origin" one-shot story felt really personal, as for Red had been. Cool ideas trown here, felt very "modern" let's say. I think it's a nice way of filling in the main series arc gaps, I enjoy them, despite being more interested in the main one. Cool art, vibrant colors, as always. So, no complaints here.
Now, lets head to Year 2!
