The DC Universe shattering events of Blackest Night have culminated in massive changes to the status quo. Many heroes and villains have changed, none more so than those previous dead and resurrected by the White Rings. But why? Why did a select few return to life and not dozens of others?
That’s the big question asked in Brightest Day #0 as written by Geoff Johns and Peter J. Tomast and illustrated by Fernando Pasarin.
Perhaps the most key resurrected hero is Deadman, a.k.a. Boston Brand, the onetime circus acrobat artist killed by the mysterious man with one hand and brought back as spectral tool of mysterious supernatural forces.
For some reason Boston has the ability to bring dead things back to life. He is also drawn to those heroes and villains who were resurrected-but why?
As the story progresses readers are given a quick glimpse of the various characters and the choices they are given. Deadman, Hawkman, Hawkgirl, Hawk, Aquaman, Reverse Flash, Boomerang, Maxwell Lord, The Martian Manhunter, Jade, Firestorm and Osiris have all returned from the dead but for what reason and what about the resurrected Star City and Sinestro? If you like a mystery wrapped up in an enigma, twisted around adventure and packaged in an exciting storyline then be sure to pick up each issue of Brightest Day.
