Now let’s look at the new releases:
DAY 5 SNEAK PEEK: HOPE (The Flash)
The Fastest Man Alive inspired many worlds and universes when he sacrificed himself to save them all, and had risen to near sainthood by the time he was suddenly reborn. As he struggled to uncover the secrets behind his own return, the Earth was plunged into the Blackest Night. The Flash found the hope he inspired in others made him worthy to join the Blue Lantern Corps, and that his rebirth might hold one of the secrets to bringing the Blackest Night to an end.
DAY 6 SNEAK PEEK:COMPASSION (The Atom)
The search for Ray Palmer is over. He’s in the DC HeroClixBlackest Night Starter Game!
A stalwart member of the Justice League, Ray Palmer’s life was torn apart when he discovered that his love Jean Loring was a murderer. Even after taking a pilgrimage into the multiverse in search of a new purpose, the Atom found he still felt empathy for Loring and all those who had brought evil upon the innocent. In the rise of the Blackest Night, the Atom’s rare compassion allowed him to join the Indigo Tribe and wield the power of their light.
The DC HeroClixBlackest Night Starter Game will be in comic and hobby stores on May 12, 2010. The Starter Game includes everything you need to play HeroClix: seven HeroClix figures, the 2010 HeroClix Rulebook, a map (The Oan Sciencells) and more – reserve your copy at your local retailer!
