I will fully admit that Blackest Night was one of the tightest and most enjoyable 'large scale comics event' that we've seen in years. Geoff Johns knows how to tell a story, plain and simple.

That said, I couldn't resist imagining what went down in the Oan barracks after the big throwdown.

This green-infused page was pencilled and inked by Jon Malin:

Reclusive and self destructive. Malin has had his work appear in the pages of Marvel, Image, Arcade and other comic publishers. His published work was recently reused by Marvel Comics and featured in the 2009 Hot Topic Gambit "HOLD 'EM" T-Shirt released from Marvel. Due to Malin's low output, destruction of a rumored $8000 of his own artwork and a reluctance to sell his art, any published piece by him on the market is considered rare.

I like the guy already.

We'll see you on Wednesday.
