Three more pages from Blackest Night #8 under the cut.



Annotations for the above image are at the DC Database (and even then I missed a few the first time 'round).

Say what you will about the costumes, White Lantern Bart totally makes up for the last page of #5 ^_^

Last page of the mini-series:

So many of those outfits are uncreative, but I have to celebrate how good Donna looks when her boobies aren't falling out.

Lookin fierce, girl.

[iondan]

Seconded. It's too bad she doesn't get to keep this costume, but I guess even if she did soon or later someone would decided it needs moar v-neck.

[shadowpsykie]

i actually love Wonder woman's costume

[retro_nouveau]

Sinestro can be such a klutz.

[nezchan]

Well, I guess if Sinestro can be a WL, then Ollie can too. Made me laugh all the same, though.

[auggie18]

I was kinda hoping they'd make Mary Marvel the White Lantern. You know:

In darkest day, in cruelest night,
From largest war to smallest plight
Against the dark, we all unite
Brightest of all, White Lantern's Light.


It seemed like it might be a good way to bring her back to light side of things.

[robogeek]

I was hoping for Don Hall, especially since we lost Connor Hawke as "nonviolent hero"

[espanolbot]

Urgh, Hal just pick a colour and stick with it.

[long_silence]

Or at least put on the Star Sapphire uniform damn it.

Be fair.

[theanswer]

Wow, White Lantern costumes suck.

[darkblade]

Well their opposite number the Black Lanterns had really cool costumes so this must be a side effect of canceling out the darkess.

[deepspaceartist]

Here's a question. What happens to all the white rings after this? Does everybody get to keep theirs, or do they just dissapear or go powerless? It'd be kinda neat if they could bust 'em out in case of another glaxy threatening emergency.

[dreamreaver]

The rings fly away once the White Lanterns resurrect Black Hand (and he starts throwing up white rings that burn through and, uh, kill Nekron, but not before the latter sends the Anti-Monitor packing to the antimatter universe).

...

[angel_negra]

Well. They're not kidding when they say they're the White Lanterns, are they?

Re: ...

[deepspaceartist]

Good point. But now that I think about it, how many dead or ressurected non-white heroes does DC have? Most of the DC heroes of colour I can recall are alive and kicking.

[queenanthai]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Diana's White Lantern costume!

[long_silence]

Well it's not like they can get much worse than her Star Sapphire costume...

[hybrid2]

Can anyone post a image of Martian Manhunter?

[jaybee3]

Those costumes are painful looking.

Can we dare hope with the White Lantern still around we might see some more resurrections (Tempest!) by the end of Brightest Day?

[sweettart1823]

I'm hoping. But I'm pretty sure Tempest isn't coming back :/

[pyrotwilight]

They look awesome on Ice and Donna the rest? Blarg. Especially Clark's.

[sweettart1823]

They remind me of Ice Sculptures... that's probably all the shiny white and silver... I think the girls' costumes are alright though.

[neuhallidae]

Already put in my two cents about the costumes ::hurk::, but the other thing that bugs me is Hal and Clark's legs. I mean, I'm fully aware people can get those positions, but god, it looks creepy drawn.

[jelly_ace]

Not meaning to sound like a killjoy, but we've already got 4 pages of BN already; wouldn't that make this one illegal?

[pyrotwilight]

Nope up to 1/3 of a story can be posted by everyone and up to 4 pages each. Not sure what the pagecount is but that would usually make it 7 1/3 pages for a standard 22 page comic and more if the issue was bigger.

[big_daddy_d]

Anyone else hear church bells?

Somebody's getting married!

[silverzeo]

The page said that Blackhand was part of the Corp. so does this mean he sucks again?

[sarno001]

Wait, is the WL Flash Wally? That's his costume, but whitewashed, isn't it?

Is Barry still kicking it with his blue buddies or something?

[dreamreaver]

All of those heroes shown were dead at one point and resurrected afterward. So yes, I'm going to assume it's Barry; people have gotten the belt wrong before, the thunderbolt symbol has multiple prongs, and the mask exposes the eyes.

[3goodtimes]

Yeah, white power!!

Er... that doesn't sound right. :/

[leikomgwtfbbq]

I like WW's White Lantern outfit a lot. :D

[icon_uk]

Okay, so the one chance we got to see a White Lantern Batman, and we don't because for some sodding reason Dick is apparently barely good enough to be in this event?

Sorry, I can appreciate them not wanting to have a Bat-event but to more or less ignore the entire Batclan aside from the uninspired mini just seems approaching the perverse.

[intertobamf]

Dick never died.

The point of the White Lanterns in the spread was that they died and came back.

[koschei]

Where the fuck in all this is Sinestro?

[swingbound.livejournal.com]

Those boots still look dumb on Bart. And since when is he a redhead? Bart is not Wally! >.<

Kon? You still need a better costume. T-shirt and jeans? *sigh*

The WL costumes look good on Ice and Donna though. I'll agree with the earlier comment that Donna should keep that top and not revert to the V-neck. This looks good!

[dreamreaver]

Eh, I've always seen Bart as having light-to-dark auburn hair, which this looks like (and different from a flame-red color), so I'm not complaining.
