I already told you about the Justice League of America #14 cover, and the Countdown tie-ins.
The covers to Green Lantern #24 and Green Lantern Corps #17 look good, but I don't trust the solicits enough to try and derive any clues from them. Suffice it to say, I'm going to be reading and hanging on every panel of both books and the two Sinestro Corps tie-in specials.
Blue Beetle's getting in on the fun, too:

A “Sinestro Corps War” tie-in! The Lanterns’ war hits home as a yellow ring appears in El Paso. But is it being offered to the Scarab or to Jaime Reyes? And whose will is stronger?

ReplyDelete*looks at the Suicide Squad cover, grumbles something about pteranodons not having any teeth, dammit*
ReplyDeleteI think we can take it as a given that they're digging him up so they can kill him again.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope so! Mitch works best when he's being killed!
Resurrection Man! Woohoo! Oh Mitch, I've missed you.
ReplyDeletePlus, Wonder Woman seems to have monkeys in it. Can't go wrong with monkeys.
And I'm VERY relieved to see covers that actually have Guy Gardner on them. There weren't any for a while, and I was getting worried. (breathes a heartfelt sigh of relief)
Holy crap, Resurrection Man! That's BOSS!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, that was a darn good comic.
I bet if you put "All this plus monkey assassins" on ANY solicit, up to and including one for 'Grapes of Wrath', it would boost sales by 20%.

ReplyDeleteYeah, but isn't that his whole schtik?
What powers come with being dead for a long time?
