Yeah, one beef I have is with the whole 'prophecy' thing that predicted the 'War of Light' and the 'Blackest Night'...the war of light (which would decimate all the corps and leave the universe in darkness) leads into blackest night.
But the war of light barely got off the ground and blackest night erupted. I was really looking forward to the battle hinted at in the splash page in GL 25 at the conclusion of the Sinestro Corp War...
*sigh*
Looks like that is not meant to be...

as usual with robinson, superman's dialogue just feels off. hopefully the rest of the comic will be good...

lol, that was bound to happen eventually.
i'd actually be surprised if we didn't see many people using more than one ring.

Yeah, agreed. It's only a minor disappointment for, Blackest Night has so far been awesome.
I think the "War of Light" was when The Star Sapphires confronted the Sinestro Corps, the Orange Lanterns stormed the Blue Lantern's home planet and when the GL's were trying to quell the prison riots involving Sinestro Corps members and a Red Lantern.
However, like you, I'd have preferred to see a free for all or at least two sides of multicoloured Lanterns clashing......
......who knows, it might happen a bit more before Blackest Night is over.
I have to agree with what someone people say about the Blackest Night. I do think that we were thrown into it way too fast. There should have been a bigger "war of the light" first and then when it reached it's climax would the Blackest Night come. Besides the Sinestro Corps War, all we ever saw were a couple of small skirmishes between the corps. If we count the Sinestro Corps War, then that should have been the highest point in the war of the light.

There was a war of light? Seriously dude?
All I remember was the Green Lantern Corps picking fights with everybody xD

I know I'm being super-nitpicky (to probably my favourite comic storyline ever in what has happened in GL over the past 2+ yrs...and this coming from a former dedicated Marvel Zombie 🙂 ) but the war of light was supposed to happen - and be resolved - by the time blackest night started.
Interview with Alan Moore.
http://www.mania.com/alan-moore-reflects-marvelman-part-2_article_117529.html
"I was noticing that DC seems to have based one of its latest crossovers [Blackest Night] in Green Lantern based on a couple of eight-page stories that I did 25 or 30 years ago. I would have thought that would seem kind of desperate and humiliating, When I have said in interviews that it doesn’t look like the American comic book industry has had an idea of its own in the past 20 or 30 years, I was just being mean. I didn’t expect the companies concerned to more or less say, “Yeah, he’s right. Let’s see if we can find another one of his stories from 30 years ago to turn into some spectacular saga.” It’s tragic. The comics that I read as a kid that inspired me were full of ideas. They didn’t need some upstart from England to come over there and tell them how to do comics. They’d got plenty of ideas of their own. But these days, I increasingly get a sense of the comics industry going through my trashcan like raccoons in the dead of the night."

Did Alan Moore really have enough time to come up for air after removing his head from his self righteous, arrogant arse to talk utter crap?
And I say this as an Englishman who recognises that some of the top comic writers these days are British. Moore couldn't sound more like a foolish senile old man who cannot get over his own success enough to praise the feats of others.

Absolutely agreed.
Alan Moore is a dick. IMO he is just a notch or 2 above Rob Liefeld in the 'being a big penis to the industry that actually gave you the recognition/money you have' dept.
And he is ONLY above Liefeld based on the fact he is more talented. Otherwise they would be equal.

What a dick 😂
At least he did call it a "spectacular saga".

In the Superman: BN crossover. He's been fighting with Kal and Connor for a couple issues.
And even if Moore didn't write anything like it years ago, I saw it as kinda riding the coattails of the recent Zombie craze in comic books, so either way it's not the most original. Doesn't mean it's not a good book. But it's been not quite as good as the Sinestro Corps War yet.
