Larfleeze takes center stage in his own CHRISTMAS SPECIAL

What do you get for the Lantern who wants everything?

This December, Orange Lantern Larfleeze, who’s never seen anything he didn’t want for his own, has his hopes set on everything Christmas-related, including Santa Claus. And nothing, not even the heroes that populate the DCU are going to stand in his way.

Featuring words by GREEN LANTERN mastermind Geoff Johns with art by Brett Booth and a sterling Gene Ha cover, the one-shot special also includes a peek into how the other members of the Orange Lantern Corps celebrate the holidays. Click below for Ha’s cover and prepare for the weirdest and craziest sleigh ride ever.

An epic piece of BRIGHTEST DAY art

By now, you’ve seen a few of these lovely White Lantern covers, featuring Aquaman, Firestorm and more — but did you know that together, the covers form a massive, amazing piece of art that shows many of BRIGHTEST DAY’s key players while also teasing at what may be to come?

Featuring figures by the very talented Ryan Sook, with additional artistry from Fernando Pasarin and Joel Gomez (and a guiding hand from Co-Publisher Jim Lee, natch) the complete image is a true thing of beauty, and the perfect brain tease. What does it all mean? Too early to tell, but all the more reason to spend a few more minutes enlarging the image below.

A few links of note for Friday

It’s been a hectic and exciting week here at The Source and beyond, so we thought it’d be a good idea to take a minute to round up some of the more notable posts from the last few days:

• DCE Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns unveiled an exclusive look at a live-action screen test for Blue Beetle.

• Speaking of Blue Beetle, we announced exclusively that Jaime Reyes would be a playable character in the BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD video game, with an exclusive still to boot.

• And as you saw earlier today, we also had an exclusive look at Warner Premiere’s BATMAN: UNDER THE RED HOOD DVD.

• We also showed off a first look at the BLACKEST NIGHT HCs, BATMAN: THE RETURN OF BRUCE WAYNE #3, Paul Cornell’s first issue on ACTION COMICS and the first part of the JLA/JSA crossover.

• Over on our sister blog GRAPHIC CONTENT, you can find all things Greendale, including a roundup of the impressive press coverage the book has garnered -- including a feature in THE NEW YORK TIMES.

THE BLEED, your spot for all things WildStorm, has been spotlighting Brian Wood and Rebekah Isaacs’ new DV8 series for most of the week as well.

And there you have it. Should be more than enough to get you through the work week’s final hours, eh?

Unveiling the covers to the BLACKEST NIGHT hardcovers

The epic adventure that is BLACKEST NIGHT isn’t over.

This July, BLACKEST NIGHT and its related series and mini-series will get the hardcover treatment writer Geoff Johns and artist Ivan Reis’ epic, universe-altering event deserves, including remastered covers featuring the work of Reis and painter Rodolfo Migliari.

Wait, you haven’t seen the covers yet? Well, you’ve come to the right place:

How about a look at BRIGHTEST DAY #2?

Sound like a good way to start the day? I’d hope so.

In the second issue of the series, we continue to follow the heroes and villains that found themselves returned to the land of the living at the end of BLACKEST NIGHT – and not everyone’s dealing with the change so well. Another jam-packed issue from the A-list creative team of writers Geoff Johns, Peter Tomasi and artists Ivan Reis, Patrick Gleason, Ardian Syaf, Scott Clark and Joe Prado – need I say more? Scroll below for a look at the issue, which hits tomorrow.

Who will hold the rings? Well, you can

light_up_rings_web

This July, you can do what no other Lantern could – hold the power of the entire Lantern spectrum in your own home. Just be careful, OK?

From DC Direct comes the BLACKEST NIGHT POWER RING SPECTRUM PVC Ring Set, which features designs that are authentic to the hit comic series. Each of the wearable, adjustable plastic rings (one each in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, black and white) instantly lights up with a long-lasting LED bulb when you slip the ring on your finger. You can also turn off the light manually and change the battery by using a key that comes with the set.

Packaged in a deluxe window box, the rings make for a eye-catching display when they are not being worn.

And as you can see from the photo above, the rings are not only supremely powerful, but extremely stylish.
