White Lantern Variants Update #2 with Ryan Sook Brightest Day #8 variant by Geoff Johns, Peter Tomasi

News, Top Story

Ok, we have the Brightest Day 8 variant. I’ve played with it so we see how it adds to the puzzle.

Check out the below image and click on it [the pic] for a large version. I’ve also flipped the picture at the request of readers so that the backdrop with the entities is the prominent feature since that is the puzzle being put together.

Brightest Day 7 Variant – Aquaman
JL: Generation Lost Variant 7 – Max Lord
Birds of Prey Variant – Hawk
Titans 26 Variant – Osiris
Brightest Day 8 Variant – Firestorm

Another 7 to go!

You can see that the backdrop appears to be related to the Entities of the various corps (White Entity, Parallax, Ion so far). Future white lantern variants will likely fill in the puzzle.

Many have speculated and mused that this emulates the Sistine Chapel and the story of creation thererin.

I think the last 2 or 3 covers closer to the bottom (so far not released) will fortell the future. We’ll see if I’m right.

Speculate away!
