If Aquaman LIVES why are the sharks dead?

Loading ...Well I knew they wouldn’t leave the whole Aquafamily dead with Mera left alone to carry the trident. So although as a longtime DCU fan, I’m pleased to see him in color again, it’s no huge revelation to see a living breathing Aquaman looking at his dead reflection on the cover of Brightest Day #2. But what about Tempest and his family? I haven’t found the cover to #1 anywhere as of yet. Just the previously released covers to #0 and other teasers. DCU’s Blog The Source has promised more Brightest Day news tomorrow so I’ll keep ya posted an any further developments about this series from writers Geoff Johns and Peter Tomasi.
Brightest Day co-author Geoff Johns had this to say about the upcoming bi-weekly 26 issue series event…
Brightest Day’ is about second chances. I think it’s been obvious from day one that there are major plans for the heroes and villains from Aquaman to take center stage in the DC Universe, among many others. ‘Brightest Day’ is not a banner or a vague catch-all direction for the DC Universe, it is a story. Nor is ‘Brightest Day’ a sign that the DC Universe is going to be all about ‘light and brighty’ superheroes. Some second chances work out…some don’t.

So what DOES it mean? How will our heroes drive back the overwhelming tides of Nekron’s forces and who will live again to see the Brightest Day? Atom is already looking for a plan to resurrect Hawkman and Hawkgirl. Will he succeed? at what cost? And who decides who lives or dies?!?!? If everyone comes back the Titans and the JLA will need bigger HQs. It remains to be seen exactly how many series will end up bearing the Brightest Day banner before the year is out… but I’d expect some major ramifications.
