2009's Blackest Night is one of the largest crossover events in DC comics history. With close to 100 issues and tie-ins, there are a slew of emotional moments that happen during it. The entire story however serves as a form of emotional torture to the heroes of the Justice League, as they witness former allies and enemies alike raised from the dead as horrifying zombie versions of themselves.

Confronting and being forced to fight old allies and loved ones who now wish to end all life in the universe gives readers many insights into the fractured emotional state of our heroes.

Martian Manhunter, Blue Beetle, and Earth 2 Superman are all resurrected as zombies after being previously killed. Emotional for the League and readers alike, as seeing the characters they know and love as evil, zombie versions of themselves weighs heavy on the heart.
