 Posted at the Source, here.



A rather depressing start...

Anyway, Boston approaches his tombstone with a sledgehammer and destroys it. After reflecting upon how he has no idea how to start his new life and how he has no one to turn to because during his first life he was a bastard... he notices the poor dead baby bird.



And suddenly his new role may have become a bit more clearer.

I'd wager we're going to see a bunch of other heroes/villains resurrected during Brightest Day - that's probably why Johns killed off Tempest and Damage in BN - so he has characters to bring back in BD. And at the end of BD, "Liveman" will probably return to being Deadman again.

I don't know about Boston returning to Deadman. Seems to me they would prefer Ralph and Sue take over that niche while they explore new territory with Boston.

I'm still wondering if those who were resurrected (save for Deadman) came back with souls.

Particularly since according to Nekron he was the one who sent the souls back to the land of the living.

Brand's new powers could be interesting. And I can definitely see a power struggle physical or emotional. After all, how will they decide when it is actually time for people to pass? Everyone must die, even if we don't want them to. How will they be able to decide when is 'too soon' and if it really was their time? Or can everyone be brought back? What are the ramifications of people who had been brought back? Will it change destiny? For example, if Thomas and Martha Wayne had been been resurrected, there would be no Batman, and Gotham and Earth would be fucked. I'm waiting to see the catch for this...

I wonder if what they're going to do is limit the ring so that it needs two weeks to recharge after one use or something? Then, by putting the series in real time, they can have him revive one person every issue until the last issue, in which the ring gets lost or destroyed.

It's funny with getting used to all the heart ripping and so on that was going on in Blackest Night that the panel of the baby bird dying still made me flinch. But then I was distracted by what a hottie Boston is without his mask on and forgot about the bird. I'm fickle.

Anyways, interesting power that Live/Deadman has gotten, there. Better go get some shovels, Boston. We got some more people that need to be ressurrected.
