Blackest Night DLC Adds Zombies To Injustice: Gods Among Us

[GamemasterAnthony]

Batman never got any powers during Blackest Night, mainly because he was still "dead" from Final Crisis. They had a zombie in the suit, so I guess that counts? I dunno, comics are weird!

So...what was that Yellow Lantern suit he got in Arkham City as one of his alternate costumes? *suspect I will actually need to read up on Darkest Night now*

That was a bit of a joke. At the start of the event Sinestro Corp War, which took place before Blackest Night, the whole reason Green Lantern found out about the yellow rings was because they tried to recruit Batman. It was because he "had the ability to instill great fear".

OT: So it's a costume pack for the most part. I did like Blackest Night, so I guess they could have chosen a worse theme.

Huh...

Pity, that. Batman would have made an awesome Yellow Lantern. Not as awesome as Yellow Lantern Scarrecrow, mind...but still...

I haven't read the issue itself but from what I understand it happened in an issue of something that tied in to the (then upcoming) Sinestro corps war storyline. It was mentioned briefly at the begin in of that comic and he was able to shake the ring off. I believe that there may be an elseworlds comic that also has a Sinestro corps Batman.

A few issues before bats got his yellow ring Hal Jordan tried to recruit Batman to become a GL. Noting that his will was greater than anyone else's. Bats tried on the green ring but rejected it saying his place was protecting Gotham City not flying around space doing GL stuff. Then as Sinestro was gearing up his Yellow Corps one ring found Batman and went onto his finger. He struggled a bit and the ring said something like, "The subject 's willpower outweighs his fear, Subject has been tainted by the power of a green ring." then flew away to amon sur.

Thank you for the assist .

Batman was also briefly a white lantern in Blackest Night follow up Brightest Day, it was teased months ahead of time with the cover to the issue in which it occurred but when it did happen it only lasted about five seconds.
