BRIGHTEST DAY: Taking a look at the art side

Before we get down to business, let's take a look at that amazing David Finch BRIGHTEST DAY cover one more time, shall we?

brightestdayaquaman-1cfc9c

Let's recap what we know about BRIGHTEST DAY, the twice-monthly epic heading your way in May: It's written by Geoff Johns and Peter Tomasi. It features covers by superstar artist David Finch. It follows up on the events of BLACKEST NIGHT, currently wreaking havoc on the DCU.

Now we can reveal the art team for the first two issues, hitting in May. And it doesn't get bigger than this:

Ivan Reis.

Patrick Gleason.

Ardian Syaf.

Scott Clark.

Two superstar artists paired with two rising stars on the biggest book in the DCU. How can you say no?

Reis and Gleason are decorated veterans of the GREEN LANTERN titles and Reis will be hot off his work on BLACKEST NIGHT -- how will he up his game for BRIGHTEST DAY? Wait until you see. Syaf, as mentioned earlier, will be pulling double-duty by handling the art chores on writer Tony Bedard's first GREEN LANTERN CORPS arc and contributing here, and Clark's work has been seen in the pages of the most recent issue of JUSTICE LEAGUE: CRY FOR JUSTICE.

There you have it, folks. Keep checking back in the coming weeks for a first look at the art of BRIGHTEST DAY.
