blackest night #8

[quannum]

because death doesn't matter, and there's gonna be a retcon in 6 months anyway.

[BRP]

Blackest Night was the last straw, I don't know if I can read anything Johns writes now.

At least it isn't Cry for Justice...

Oh btw, Robinson is nominated for best writer of the year solely because of Cry for Justice. hahahaha, motherfuckers.

EDIT: Morrison didn't get nominated at all, neither did anything related to Batman and Robin.

its always niggery before the nigger

Geoff Johns Flowchart:

Is he a silver age legacy character?

Yes: Nice!

No: ->

Did I read them growing up?

Yes: Nice!

No: Kill them, bring back legacy character!


LIFE ORIGINATED ON EARTHHHHHHHHURRRRRR

[BRP]

Jay Garrick: BARRY ALLEN MADE ME THE FLASH

BARRY ALLEN CREATED THE SPEED FORCE

[quannum]

basically

[BRP]

NEKRON CAN BEAT THE SPECTRE AND ANTI-MONITOR JUST BY BEING THERE.

THIS IS WHY HE BRINGS BACK TO LIFE OVER TWO DOZEN OF THE EARTH STRONGEST HEROES OVER A DECADE(SECRETLY!!) TO PROTECT HIM FROM... ? WELL, PERHAPS TO COLLECT "EMOTIONALLY POWERED" HEARTS (ERRR?), NO WAIT, HE WAS ALREADY AT 100% THEN... UMMMM?

AND HE COULDN'T HAVE DONE THIS ON THE BLACKEST NIGHT WHICH WAS OKAY FOR MILLIONS OF OTHERS(SOME MORE POWERFUL THAN... LETS SAY GREEN ARROW AND ANIMAL MAN)... IF HE DID THAT THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO TURN INTO WHITE LANTERNS - BY ULTIMATE LIFE FORCE THING(WHICH LOOKS LIKE A PREDATOR LOL) - SOMETHING NO ONE BUT HIM COULD ACCESS AND BRING OUT - WHICH IS BTW THE ONLY THING THAT COULD STOP HIM.

HMMMMMMM.

WELL GOOD THING HE KEPT HIS ONE WEAKNESS, THE MAIN VILLAIN, BLACK HAND, ON THE FRONT LINE THE ENTIRE TIME.

Did I miss anything?

EDIT: OH YEAH, GOOD THING SINESTRO BECAME THE WHITE LANTERN. I MEAN WHO ELSE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN THEIR ASS KICKED AND BE ENTIRELY USELESS FOR THE ENTIRE FINAL BATTLE - WHICH WAS POINTLESS BECAUSE ALL THEY REALLY NEEDED TO DO WAS PUT A RING ON SOME DUDE WHO WAS JUST STANDING THERE... THE ENTIRE TIME!

THANK YOU DEADMAN! ERRR ALIVEMAN! HOPE LOSING ALL YOUR POWERS WORKS OUT FOR YOU

Promethus premiered in Morrison's JLA, early on. He was rather awesome, in that he fought the entire JLA with an elaborate plan(splitting them up and etc). Had cool counter methods(some hilarious even) for the heroes too. In Cry for Justice, apparently he can just fight ALL them head-on. Basically he is a Anti-Batman. Batman can give a large squad of metas a run for their money, but has he even done this in a straight-forward charge?

WHY DID SUPERGIRL LET HIM SHOOT A GUN AT ALL?

In JLA he loses because of an unseen factor, in an embarrassingly funny way. In CFJ he gets beat up by someone he already won against... FOR NO RAISON.

At least for all the bad Cry for Justice is it redeemed and further developed the villain Promethu- NOPE HE GOT SHOT IN THE HEAD WITH A BOW AND ARROW. THROUGH HIS MAGIC SCIENCE HELMET. IN HIS HEADQUARTERS THAT THE GREATEST MINDS IN THE DC COULD NEVER FIND. BUT IT WAS FOUND BY SOMEONE DUMBER THAN DICK WAYNE. THIS GUY WHO JUST SAYS "JUSTICE" WITH NO ONE ELSE IN THE ROOM(KILLED THE ONLY LIVING GUY) AND NO ONE WAS EVEN TALKING TO HIM.

TOTALLY WORTH KILLING RED ARROW'S LITTLE GIRL. THAT BITCH HAD TO DIE. SHE WAS LIKE 8. FUCK 8 YEAR OLDS.

NOW GREEN ARROW AND RED ARROW CAN BOTH LIVE OUT THE SAME EXACT CHARACTER ARC. "Justice." DC NEEDED A PUNISHER, NOT NAMED JASON TODD, NOW YOU GET TWO. "Justice."

In original plans they intended to destroy every fictional city in DC except Metropolis and Gotham. Hahahaha, destroying Coast City again.....

[BRP]

bart allen is in the boring ass Teen Titans. Conner and bart reappeared there in the last issue fighting a boring ass villain. I don't know, maybe it will finally pick up. Static and Blue Beetle weren't enough though.

wally I think is suppose to rejoin the titans (while dick, donna get to join the Justice League) but titans are evil right now or something? Any book with titan in the name is a boring book.

[Demosthenes]
