Do you like crossovers? Do you like crossovers that are 18 issues long? If you answered yes to both those questions, I have good news for you.

Announced over at DC’s Blog, it looks like while “Forever Evil” goes on throughout the DCU the Justice League Dark books will be wrapped up in an 18-part crossover running through “Justice League Dark,” “Phantom Stranger,” “Constantine” and “Pandora”.

Entitled “Forever Evil: Blight” and running alongside “Forever Evil” up to the climax, the crossover follows Constantine and the alt-Leaguers and Trinity of Sin going up against an entity called Blight (character sketch above by “JLD” artist Mikel Janin), who is apparently the physical manifestation of evil created by the Crime Syndicate’s invasion of Earth. Constantine, who refuses to believe his teammates are dead, will lead Swamp Thing, Nightmare Nurse and more against Blight in order to rescue Zatanna from wherever she is.

Here are the issues that will be involved in the crossover:

PART 1 – JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK #24
PART 2 – JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK #25
PART 3 – TRINITY OF SIN: THE PHANTOM STRANGER #14
PART 4 – CONSTANTINE #9
PART 5 – TRINITY OF SIN: PANDORA #6
PART 6 – JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK #26
PART 7 – TRINITY OF SIN: THE PHANTOM STRANGER #15
PART 8 – CONSTANTINE #10
PART 9 – PANDORA #7
PART 10 – JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK #27
PART 11 – TRINITY OF SIN: THE PHANTOM STRANGER #16
PART 12 – CONSTANTINE #11
PART 13 – TRINITY OF SIN: PANDORA #8
PART 14 – JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK #28
PART 15 – TRINITY OF SIN: THE PHANTOM STRANGER #17
PART 16 – CONSTANTINE #12
PART 17 – TRINITY OF SIN: PANDORA #9
PART 18 – JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK #29

The point of the story being: if you are loving “Forever Evil,” DC is going to ramp that into overdrive and turn the knob up to 11 for you! If you aren’t, well, roll the eight-ball, try again later and come back in April.
