>>111706932>Because Blackest Night was a fucking event and was left at that.>Snyder's concepts never fucking end.The 00's were one endless event after another. Johns' Infinite Crisis led into 52/One Year Later into Sinestro Corp War into Blackest Night. Blackest Night even led right into Brightest Day!
Nekron may not have been pushed in every book, but they sure tried that with Superboy Prime.
>Furthermore, Blackest Night happened because at the time a shit ton of characters were dead already, so it was trying to do something at least somewhat entertaining instead of a standard reboot.There was a shitton of dead heroes in large part because of Johns! And he didn't even bother to bring all of them back at the end! Just a select few for his dumb Brightest Day event.
Maybe all of Johns' dumb darkness could be forgiven if he had resurrected everyone he killed off (that would be like Morrison, given he brought back Animal Man's family at the end of Animal Man, as well as his appreciation for obscure, overlooked characters and his disdain for dark, deathfest events). But he didn't, and it leaves off on a sour note instead of a hopeful one.
