I mean, there they were(with wings yet), the Egyptian originals, sealed in crystal inside the Zamaron battery and, apparently, powering it.

As far as BN, actually it's been pretty easy to follow the story if you just read every other issue. The last one amazed me, because of the seriously nasty cliffhanger ending to the one previous, and, you know, NEKRON SHOWING UP AND EVERYTHING. And then? Well, to be honest, only one thing actually happened in this issue, Nekron had only one goddamn line(once again whining about his growling stomach or something), and everyone gets a power ring. The issue is so full of double-page spreads that, in story terms, it amounts to the length of a preview, and, um, can I see Nekron doing awful things and revealing big cosmic secrets yet, because THERE'S ONLY TWO MORE ISSUES, YOU KNOW?

The issue was a heavily-padded waste of pages. I don't like that because it really did start off strong and mean, and it's getting weaker all the time. Not only that, but now, when bad things happen to our heroes, it gets undone too fast for you to even feel anything. And so all the deaths now feel cheap, where they were actually shocking at the beginning and I liked that. But in the same month you not only have Kyle die and then have it be immediately undone, but Diana too. I'm not saying they should have stayed dead. I'm saying if you're going to pull that at all, you have to give the death some dignity by giving it JUST a little time and some sense of loss.
