New cryptic Brightest Day teaser image

[icon_uk]

In the grand tradition of such things, DC have issued a new cryptic teaser image for their... well, let's be charitable and call it "controversial"... Brightest Day series...



Full size image under the cut



So amongst other things I notice

Hal in fetching, but probably hell to keep clean, White Lantern outfit... Sucks to not be Sinestro eh? :)

Jason and Ronnie either burying or unearthing Black Lantern Firstorm.

Jade not looking at all well

Aquaman looking REALLY not at all well.

<s>Dead</s>Liveman practising his masonry skills....

And to spread the artistic appreciation of S_D, as thokstar mentions below, it's apparently inspired by "The Rock", a painting by Peter Blume.

I have no idea wtf is going on in this but its pretty cool :)

Needs more Max Wonder Woman Holding a Sword.

(This time without HTML fail.)

Max Lord? Max Lord ..... nope, not ringing any bells... was that his costumed codename?

[grimmbear]

Is that Blue Devil's trident shattered on the ground?
There are a bunch of Capt. Boomerang's Instarangs piled up.
At Jason's foot is a Weaponeer of Quard's shield.
Anti-moniter in the clouds.

Looks very interesting. I love the Star Sapphire portal to death the Hawks are tied to. makes a huge amount of sense. Jonn stiring the flames around the forest in Star City is a bit disturbing.

You probably want to add this to the intro, but the teaser is a homage to Peter Blume's The Rock

(I don't know art, but I've seen others mention it.)

[thokstar]

More likely Magog's weapon than Blue Devil's.

[grimmbear]

Oh! Well then I fully approve of the image.

Cheers for that, I've added in a scan and an appropriate link!

[long_silence]

I think that's the shield laced with white lantern energy from October's GLC solicit.

Blaqualad's power is to make weapon constructs out of his water hand?

[blackruzsa]

YAY for new Aqualad.

And it's a pretty cool spread, although I've stopped bothering with following Brightest Day.

It'd be a pretty neat variation on Mera's powers. Maybe he's from her world.

[stubbleupdate]

Yay! The anti-Monitor is back. He's not been around for... 45 minutes?

Also, I assume that that's the Firestorms in the bottom left

[fleur_de_liz]

I think he might've been the Amazing Wombat Man, but maybe that was somebody else.

[darkblade]

Looks like Atrocitus found a contstructive outlet for his rage.

..........................

A Green Lantern coffin. Next to what looks like a construction site.

They'd BETTER NOT BE PLANNING TO KILL JOHN STEWART.

[foxhack]

Also, y halo thar Black Manta in the darkness under Hal Jordan!

[joasakura]

it's a really cool image. I just wish I could garner more of a reaction at this point then "meh."

[icon_uk]

Good catch! Had missed that one completely.

[espanolbot]

Huh, in the black and white version I saw, I thought that they'd all gone to Hell.

Not that that would be suprising in Hal's case.

[nezchan]

Bonus points if it was Peej who got to break it.

[shadowpsykie]

notice at the weaponeer's sheild, white light coming off it towards Dead/Live Man.

hm Black Manta in shadows under where Arthur's umm... left overs, are

[nezchan]

What I can't figure out is what's with the glowing web growing out from under the shield in the foreground?

[shadowpsykie]

also, Nice homage to an existing piece of art.

[thanekos]

No one was willing to do a Pieta with Hal, huh?

[thokstar]

It's a net that !Deadman threw at the Anti-Monitor earlier in Brightest Day. The most recent solicit for GLC says that one of the Weaponers of Qward will use the shield and net as a weapon to go after Soranik Natu and Sinestro.
