So this who Blight is apparently? Ok then.

As the preview says, Blight isn't a "who". It's an entity that is just now inhabiting the body of that guy Chris. It gets more complicated because the Stranger recently risked a fuck-ton of shit in Heaven that resulted in Chris being brought back to life. Previously the Stranger had altered the events that would have resulted in a serial killer killing the Stranger's human family however that inadvertently resulted in Chris getting killed instead.

And even that is a simplified explanation of all those events :lol:

When Forever Evil finishes, I'll probably drop this one.

Normally this title kind of coasts but is overall entertaining. This issue however had a lot of weird shit going down.

[Reveal] Spoiler: Click to Expand

- The Divine Prescense tells the Stranger that he must join with Blight, which he begrudgingly does at first then changes his mind.
- In the meantime Constantine has trapped Deadman (against his will) inside the body of the Earth-3 Sea King to try and obtain information about the Syndicate. Deadman found an echo of consciousness still within Sea King so they are using Deadman to use that consciousness. This does not sit well with the rest of the team. So far all they know is that Sea King was scared to death of something as he came through the doorway from his Earth.
- Back to the Stranger as he "seizes the fire" of Christ's love to strike down Blight and release Chris.
- Cut to Ultraman who has recruited Felix Faust and someone named Necro to perform a weird experiment on Mindwarp to turn him into a bio-weapon that fails and results in Mindwarp being literally burned up.
- Back to the Stranger where Chris reveals that he wants to be joined with Blight and severely injures the Stranger just as the Stranger teleports out. The Stranger makes it to the House of Mystery where he's heal by Nightmare Nurse then he decides to go to Heaven to "kick God in the teeth" and make him answer to why he's allowing what's currently happening :shock:
