Synopsis:
Spinning out of the events of the massive crossover event Forever Evil, and to end the event, Forever Evil: Blight arrives! With the battle between the three Justice Leagues, the heroes of the DC Universe–including DC’s main trinity—Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman– are gone as an unspeakable evil is unleashed on the world, Blight—a mystical form of evil is formed from all the darkness unleashed in people’s minds. Now, it is up to the new Justice League Dark, formed by John Constantine, consisting of Nightmare Nurse, Swamp Thing, Pandora, and the Phantom Stranger, to save everything around them before all is lost!
AWEsomeness:
The book is not as explosive as its predecessors, Trinity War & Forever Evil, but it has its charm, and the art is pretty decently done to give the intensity of the fate of the DCU.















My View:
Aforementioned, it is not the arc that matches the intensity of its predecessors, but still capable of spinning an intriguing end. It follows the punch of Forever Evil, but in a mystic force. Everything here is occult, dark, and supernatural, although in some places, the repetition detracted from the excitement of the reading experience. Some parts felt unnecessary; even with a twist or turn here and there, the story seemed to linger longer than required. Anyway, the book is a good read from the threat of Blight to the mystery of the missing mystics.
Rating: 4.3/5 stars
