Probably for the best, it wouldn't be the same without George Pérez

Just started reading this one:
It's pretty good so far. We will see how it holds up.
Nothing compares to the excitement of CoIE when it first came out and it being the original “event.”
For my money and enjoyment, Blackest Night ranks pretty high as being a well-crafted event. John’s’ build up to the event in his Rebirth of Green Lantern/Hal Jordan felt epic in scope and the time it took to arrive to BN. It really reset and added to the GL mythos and reclaimed and reinvented a past GL villain.
Outside the GL mythos, it worked really well in-universe and metatextually. All superheroes have dealt with death or death and resurrection at some point, so the plot really served each character in an individualized way for the different stories we received where they had to confront the death(s) of someone they loved or had unfinished business with.
I really cared about what was unfolding in BN and I haven’t been that into an event in a long time.
I do love a good alternate/reimagined universe story though… Some parts of Flashpoint were brilliant, but a lot of parts fell flat. It was an inconsistent event for me.
Crisis on Infinite Earths, followed (closely) by Flashpoint, and then Blackest Night. IMHO.

Batman/TMNT film was awesome.
Comics wise, usually good with Scooby-Doo.
