DC offers more promotional rings

DC will be offering more promotional rings to mark their forthcoming 'Brightest Day' event.

Retailers who purchase 10 copies of The Flash #1 will be able to order Flash rings and Green Lantern rings will similarly be on offer with copies of Green Lantern #53.

Both titles will be written by Geoff Johns and tie-in to 'Brightest Day', the follow-up storyline to the current 'Blackest Night' event.

"One of the many great Flash Facts about DC Comics is that they actually do support the retailers with promotions like this that not only make our whole business a bit more fun, but also bring the promotion to every single reader," said Johns.

"Of course, the proof is in the content and I couldn't be prouder of the work Francis Manapul and I are doing on The Flash and Doug Mahnke and I are creating on Green Lantern. Thanks to everyone, retailers and readers, for an amazing 2009 and here’s to an even better 2010!"

DC's promotional rings from the eight lantern corps - which were made available with various 'Blackest Night' tie-ins - proved very popular when they were released last year.

The Flash and its promotional rings are planned for release on April 14, with Green Lantern #53 and the lantern rings available from April 21.
