Spotted Online – Fallen Lanterns
I haven’t been reading DC’s Blackest Night series (official website), but only because I’m going to wait for a collection. I have been keeping one eye on the series, though, and it looks fun.
One cool page on the site is the Fallen Lanterns guide, with information on the various Lanterns shown in the above image.
“In the pages of GREEN LANTERN: TALES OF THE SINESTRO CORPS, readers caught a glimpse at the massive Green Lantern Crypt located on Oa, which acts as a monument to those Green Lanterns who have lost their lives and whose bright missions of justice have been extinguished. Laid out now before you is a detailed list of every Green Lantern in the Cyrpt leading up to BLACKEST NIGHT along with where you can witness their final battles.”
This is exactly the sort of thing I like to see on official company website. It’s not involved or complicated, but it’s a fun bit of trivia and history for comic fans. And, most importantly, it’s fun.
