I'm going to have to be the voice of dissent on this one.
By the time this launches, the DCU, especially every Green Lantern title, will have been fighting zombie lanterns non-stop for a year. They are immediately following this up by launching another story that will engulf them for yet another year.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? The Bendis/Quesada/Millar gang over at Marvel have engaged virtually their entire line of comics into a never-ending crossover, with one mega-story overlapping into the next, often without any kind of a satisfactory ending to the first crossover. During these never-ending crossover events, 7 or 8 titles a month end up having their respective heroes fighting the same exact threat, be it Iron Man's registration forces, Iron Man's arrogant regime, supposedly imaginative new Super-Skrulls, or Norman Osborn.
One of the things that aggravates me the most about that is that it is a killer of variety. A huge chunk of Marvel's titles become homogenized to the point that people actually criticize and complain about the titles that aren't involved in the story, that supposedly don't matter.
I guess this stuff sells, and I suppose DC has to treat its line like a business, but if this truly is the beginning of DC stepping into Marvel's never-ending crossover model, then I am definitely unimpressed.
Personally, I preferred the Green Lantern titles when they told more than one story in a year.
...now, if we can just get Professor Pyg confirmed.

Those would be my two guesses. At the end of the BN:JLA issue, it seems like Kimiyo channeled the White Light to vaporize the Dr. Light Black Lantern.
I was thinking at First Bizarro...because if you notice at the end of the First Blackest Night Issue of Superman/Batman he began to glow white like it went from rage to...white.
Maybe that was frustration?
