The Spectre’s Hit list

So, Final Crisis: Revelations has recently hit the shelves and I have to say this is probably one of the best tie ins so far I have read. If you can imagine, the Spectre finally delivered the long over due justice/revenge on Dr. Light. The Spectre judges Dr Light (who is in the middle of a mock superhero rape orgy with various women dressed as Teen Titans), and burns him to death by turning him into a candle and using his head for the wick. The Spectre, in his characteristically ironic fashion, chose this punishment because of Light’s abuse of his ability to manipulate light. It didn’t stop there, long time Kyle Rayner villain, and an old favorite of mine, Effigy also suffered the Spectre’s wrath. Effigy is killed by The Spectre, who melts him down and traps him in a lantern resembling a Green Lantern ring’s power battery. The problem is, we don’t know if Effigy is truly dead or the fact he could return. Oh well, remember The Blackest Night is coming. I can see Martin getting a Black Lantern Ring. However, Libra is apparently more powerful then the Spectre and threatens to destroy them, but the Spectre uses its powers to escape. Although Allan swears that he will no longer do as god says and attempts to revoke his status as the Spectre, he finds himself called by god to enact vengeance on his former partner Renee Montoya for her sins. So, it’s going to be interesting to see if the Question can escape the Spectre or if Crispus will finally give Libra what he deserves.
