I'm currently following "Blackest Night." It is a massive DC Comics crossover series that originated in "Green Lantern" and "Green Lantern Corps" and is affecting every title in the DC Comics line. The series will end in February 2010.
The main miniseries is written by Geoff Johns and he is simply an outstanding comic book writer, one of the best currently writing. In recent years he has taken Green Lantern and changed it from being just a superhero comic turned it into a massive galaxy-spanning space epic.
One of the things I like best about Johns' writing is that he takes the past and is able to redefine our perceptions without changing the previous events. Often, what he writes has a massive impact on the comics that follow.
