Zimm's Two Cents
I really enjoyed the Blackest Night series, and surprisingly enough, I am enjoying the Green Lantern character - something that I never did as a kid.

Points in Favor: Still enjoying the base.

Points Against
  • All of the 'sketch' lines in the face, skull, and arms bother me.
  • Colors aren't as vibrant as I would want. Black can still be vibrant.
  • Never liked the whole "Bruce Wayne" skull thing. (Why green horns anyway?)
Recommendation: Passing on this one. Originally, I thought about getting the entire series; however, this piece really doesn't cut it for me. I am second guessing myself on that idea.
