Check out this cover for Brightest Day #13:

Is that my old favorite Resurrection Man I spy? I think it is! I can't imagine who else it could be in that hat.

Thank God for Geoff Johns and his love of obscure characters...

Resurrections

Ah... Nothing like a three day weekend to recharge the ol' batteries. Thank God for Japan an its wacky national holidays. I mean, Marine Day? C'mon!

Anyway, my first day of work this week also turned out to be the day that DC released their October solicitations. There's a lot of interesting stuff in there, from Captain Carrot (C'mon! Try and say that DC doesn't like fun now! I dare ya!) to the Resurrection of Ra's al Ghul.

But that's not the resurrection I care about. I care about the one in the DC INFINITE HALLOWEEN SPECIAL #1. Do read the solicit:

Don’t miss this collection of 13 stories of tricks and treats by some of comics’ top creators, including writers Steve Niles, Mark Waid, Steve Seagal, Dan DiDio, Dan Abnett, Andy Lanning, Peter Johnson (TV’s Supernatural), David Arquette (Scream), Cliff Dorfman (Entourage) and many more with art by Ian Churchill, Dean Ormston, Dustin Nguyen , Bernard Chang and others! The inmates of Arkham horrify each other with terrifying tales involving Superman and zombies, Batman and vampires, Robin and werewolves, Aquaman and witches, Flash and the dead, and more! Plus, the return of Resurrection Man!

Oh yes. Yes indeed. You did read that correctly. It's the Return of Ressurection Man. It's no secret that I really loved the Resurrection Man comic. And even if it's for just a short while, I'm happy that Resurrection Man is coming back.

Ra's al Ghul, not so much...
