Stunning What?!?!

I didn't realize this when I finished reading the book, but it hit me much later.

BLACKEST NIGHT: BATMAN #3 of 3

Solicitation reading: "The stunning conclusion arrives!"

While I will grant them stunning (albeit not in the way they meant), I call bullshit on conclusion. A conclusion suggests the end to a story. The issue in question doesn't present an ending, but a really questionable dodge to buy more time for the heroes without even wrapping up the character-specific-zombie subplot.

You'd have expected the mini-series to completely deal with the Blackest Night Grayson/Drake subplots...rather than have them fly away into the night.

Now I can look forward, with dread, to the Blackest Night: Superman final issue set to be in my box, where the subplot will, undoubtedly, fly up, up and away.

Wee!

Alex Segura says, "Lovely Francis Manapul art always makes Monday go by faster, no?"

Oui!

Knowing that Geoff Johns is writing something that teams Connor & Tim up in Adventure Comics #3 speeds it up even further. That's my new desktop wallpaper right there.
