Can't wait, and I have to ask. What are the chances that this series will get an animated adaption or a hardcover for a graphic novel?

animated adaptation: if they do sinestro corp war and hint at it towards the end

hardcover: only if the company wants to make money :laugh:

Here's mine. Don't be jealous....:169:

*sigh* I wish DC had made a collector's set of those rings in real jewelry quality.

hardcover: only if the company wants to make money :laugh:

Which they do. I wouldn't be surprised if we get a hardcover version along with the inevitable trade paperback.

That'd be nice, but eeehhh.... expensive.

I definitely will get the hardcover of all Blackest Night.

I'm with you on that one. I still need to get the second part of the Sinestro Corps. War.

Trust me. DC would never fail us on SC Wars and doing a hardcover of BL and a possible animated adaption of both mini-series.

Well there is a set of rings that are made of diecast metal complete with a base that will run you about 100 bones. The rings look exactly the same as the plastic ones given out..again just made out of metal. They're advertised as "not suposed to be worn" but I saw them today at my local comic shop and you can wear them. There's also a set of plastic rings coming out next year that will light up when put on your finger. I'm still holding out to see how well the light up feature is done.

I also picked up a Green Lantern Toon Tumbler glass today to add to my Colossus & Firestorm glasses. It's pretty rad. If you've never seen them you can check out the glasses here... http://www.toontumblers.com/
Looks like they're also making a set of Lantern symbol glasses. These are going to be a MUST OWN!

^ Seriously? A light Lantern rings? That sounds awesome.
