Anyone questioning the popularity of Blackest Night and the Black Lanterns should rest assured that DC Direct is all over this event. Series 5 is all Black Lanterns, including the *gasp* Black Lantern Batman. I have yet to pick up any of the Black Lantern versions of my favorite heroes, but the alien members of the other Corps are going in my Green Lantern display. I didn’t pick up Mongul when he was originally released, but I may have to now that he’s decked out in his Sinestro Corps gear.
