This weekend, comic book stores received the Blackest Night Brightest Day Box Set from DC Comics, for sale from Tuesday – but there's a problem A big one The massive volume contains twelve brand-new hardcovers that collect the entire Blackest Night and Brightest Day events led by Geoff Johns as well as a set of[...]

Time to put the spoiler hat on for anyone who hasn't read the final issue of Brightest Day And who hasn't been spoiled reading Comics Alliance, Newsarama and the like And so who hasn't realised that the final few pages see the return of yet another Vertigo character to the DC Universe that bore them,[...]

Okay, this is where it pretty much gets official. At the Hellblazer 25th Anniversary panel last night at the London Sci-Fi Festival, questions were asked

It's been a pretty interesting Comic Day, with Fear Itself, Nonplayer, and of course the secret of Brightest Day generating some serious discussion  Meanwhile, the tv/film side of the page reveals more question marks for The Wolverine I'm ready to crack open my Atlas Era Strange Tales Vol 4 Masterwork, but before I get to[...]

But here I find myself reviewing two comics that seem steeped in Vertigo, yet not published by them. And yes, talking about Brightest Day #23 in this way I'm going to have to use spoilers And that means spoilers beyond the last page posted yesterday as well. Not that you'd see the Vertigoness straight away It's colourful[...]

 But it's another good week in comics, there's Nonplayer, Fear Itself, Brightest Day, and a bunch more  And I see Rich has some great reviews planned for morning, but before that, let's catchup: Most-Read Comic Stories Today: Big Brightest Day Spoilers You Will Kill Yourself Over If You Read After all, DC are not like Marvel[...]

That's tradition.

He had just finished proofing the lettering for issue 24, a 38 page finale that will probably be released in the same week as Brightest Day It will be a single, glorious fight, perhaps the best fight scene ever done in comics Winick, with a smile on his face, then dared anyone who didn't believe[...]

But it doesn't feel that inspired, you could probably get the same sense of satisfaction reading a Wikipedia synopsis. Of cousre if you buy it, it's possible you may be able to flip it on eBay. Brightest Day #22 by Geoff Johns, Pete Tomasi, Scot Clark, Ivan Reis and Joe Prado is not the kind of comic[...]

I do hope it's Swamp Thing. Yes, I know, I have a lot of love for the Vertigo version and would have welcomed the China Mieville version, complete with machine guns, but there's something hat seems to radical for DC to have the saviour of the universe revealed to be a vegetable with delusions of grandeur. Brightest[...]

The first Brightest Day hardcover, published in December collecting the first eight issues, pushed out the door at well below the $30 cover price – below what most comic shops can buy them for, come to that, for just $15.64. A good price to hold the line at? Looks like Amazon may have over ordered a[...]

The legacy character's death and subsequent rebirth in Brightest Day have put more of a spotlight on the character. The post also stated that those who survive the Brightest Day series will see their own ongoing series… more to announce?

There has been a bit of fuss regarding the solicitations for DC's new series Brightest Day While the creative team is solid, no one is exactly sure what it's all about And without that knowledge, how can a comic retailer order in confidence? DC have tried to solve that by making issues 0, 1, 2, 3,[...]
