Green Lantern #44 preview: Blackest Night

[sherkahn.insanejournal.com]

The preview for Green Lantern #44 are up at IGN.

Beautiful design. they look like something out of Clive Barker's upchucked Hellraiser. Truly horrifying.

Atrocitius finally face the consequences of his actions, and may have to redirect his rage.

... Clicking while eating may be the stupidest thing I've done in the past week.

I'd imagine that the little man who lives in Alan Moore's beard would be face-palming if he saw this.

[20thcenturyvole.insanejournal.com]

Funny, I thought those were the little men that lived in Alan Moore's beard.

...then....where do they facepalm?

[jeyl.insanejournal.com]

And here I thought they couldn't be creepier than Kryb.

[sherkahn.insanejournal.com]

I do so love how Atrocitus can keep coming back for more. Red Lanterns may have an advantage in this war.

[jlbarnett.insanejournal.com]

There's no reason for the Black Lantern's on Ysmault not to be slaughtered. The second a Red Lantern and a Green Lantern target the same one at the same time they're dead. From that point on the GL's should only attack the Black Lantern's that are being engaged by a RL

Then get ready for this(from, of all things, Krypto's Wiki page)

"Johns has also indicated that Krypto will fight Dex-Starr, the Red Lantern cat, in the Blackest Night storyline."

That's right, Krypto vs. Rage Kitty.

[arilou_skiff.insanejournal.com]

FUCK YEAH!?

[leikomgwtfbbq.insanejournal.com]

I say NOOOOOO. 'Cos I want Ruffles The Rage Kitty to survive and become an antiheroic critter. And he could be friends with Streaky. IT'D BE AWESOME.

[yotsuba123.insanejournal.com]

Is Streaky in continuity right now? I know he showed up in Wednesday comics but I wasn't sure if that was counted as part of canon.

[autolychus2.insanejournal.com]

I hope Rage Kitty eviscerates that freaking, useless, annoying, should-have-stayed-in-the-Silver-Age dog. GOD, I hate everything Superman, but nothing annoys me as much as Krypto.

[jlbarnett.insanejournal.com]

Krypto RULES!!!

[glitterandlube.insanejournal.com]

I just yelled with JOY

[manofbats.insanejournal.com]

This looks like a misogynist's nightmare.

[xammax.insanejournal.com]

???

[manofbats.insanejournal.com]

Lots of fanged mouths that resemble female genitalia in shape.

[xammax.insanejournal.com]

Fuck misogynist; anyone with a penis is now scared shitless. Thanks for that; I hadn't noticed. It was a better world.

[sailorlibra.insanejournal.com]

Heck, I'm scared and I don't even have a penis. But I'm sort of a pansy.

[xammax.insanejournal.com]

By deductive logic, I conclude you are rightly afraid of having teeth on your vagina. A reasonable fear given the circumstances.

Genitals should never mix with teeth... even lightly.

[zegim.insanejournal.com]

Thank you, can't unsee it now D:

[deepspaceartist.insanejournal.com]

What about the ones on the right and second from left? They appear to resemble large fanged penises. Better to call this a genital nightmare alltogether.

[mr_fig.insanejournal.com]

First thing that popped in my head was Lovecraft Vagina monsters O_O

[jlroberson.insanejournal.com]

No, just Kevin O'Neill's. They're his designs, from that Alan Moore story that started all this.

Which, funnily, caused the Comics Code to declare O'Neill's very STYLE against the Code.

[parsimonia.insanejournal.com]

HAHAHA WHAT

[icon_uk.insanejournal.com]

Awww, it's the revival tour for "The Five Inversions", back on the road and performing their old hits!

[icon_uk.insanejournal.com]

Or else KISS...

[(Anonymous)]

Course they won't tell you but it took a massive amount of money to get Atrocitus to agree to a reunion tour after he had left for his solo career

[thokstar.insanejournal.com]

Black Lantern Qull almost makes up for the stupidity of killing him off in the first place.

[btravage.insanejournal.com]

...almost.

[aegof.livejournal.com (from insanejournal.com)]

Atrocitius must've felt pretty inadequately terrifying, hangin' round these guys.

[dreamreaver.insanejournal.com]

can I just say that Blackest Night is the first thing in a while to genuinely scare the shit out of me

[sherkahn.insanejournal.com]

This is what happens after thousands of years of unprotected sex....

[crinosg.insanejournal.com]

Okay, am I the only one who saw this and immediately thought "Zalgo?"

...


he comes...

[sd_mouser.insanejournal.com]

Suddenly I'm wondering where Ambush Bug is in all this...

[halloweenjack.insanejournal.com]

So. Zombie demons, plus a woman squatting on the cover, wearing a diaphanous loincloth, with the caption "Enter: Indigo."

Stay classy, DC.

[midnightvoyager.insanejournal.com]

...You seem to be the only one around here who notes that they are demons, so I must ask: Are those the demons who told Abin Sur his future, causing him to depend too much on the ring?

Because if so: Ohhhhhh shit.

[halloweenjack.insanejournal.com]

You betcha!

[midnightvoyager.insanejournal.com]

Even though they don't look nearly as awesome as they did in the original (Damn, but that was some incredibly good and unsettling art), I'm rather glad to see the ol' bastards referenced.

IGN is blocked at work so I can't see this, but I'm guessing you mean 47 not 44? 44 has been out for a bit.
