    Osiris Rises! a.k.a. Business as Usual

    Blackest Night is a comic book event where dead characters rise and wreak havoc. Guess what happens in The Power of Shazam! #48? You might actually be surprise. This is the first tie-in issue that I can remember where the risen dead have it out with other members of the Black Lantern Corps. I'm not going to go into too much detail about which former members of the Marvel Family that go at it because: a) you could probably guess and b) that's ALL that happens in this issue. Although I kind of like the idea of changing up the formula of Blackest Night tie-ins I guess the two waring characters are too bland to interest me. Billy and Mary Marvel appear on one page so this comic doesn't really go to help reinvigorate my enthusiasm with the Marvel Family either.
    Although the idea of this issue deserves 4 stars the delivery deserves 2.5.
