Blackest Night reading order?

[Oliviaswell]

This may be a completely n00b question to ask, but I'll ask anyway. I went to my local bookstore to buy Blackest Night by Geoff Johns, but there were several Blackest Night stories to choose from. I knew which one to read first, but after that, I'm not too sure. I found a guide online (Blackest Night) that says the reading order goes like this:
1. Blackest Night
2. Black Lantern Corps Vol. 1
3. Black Lantern Corps Vol. 2
4. Green Lantern
5. Green Lantern Corps
6. Tales of the Corps

But then on Wikipedia (Blackest Night - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia), it says the order goes like this:
1. Blackest Night
2. Green Lantern
3. Green Lantern Corps
4. Tales of the Corps
5. Black Lantern Corps Vol. 1
6. Black Lantern Corps Vol. 2
7. Rise of the Black Lanterns

I need some help please! I don't want to read it out of order. Thanks!

I would suggest perchasing either Heroes of the Fallen Lands or Heroes of the Forgotten Kingdoms first.

Then, you can probably find a bulletin at your local game store to find a DM who has a spot free so you can start with the game in a friendly warm environment.

Also, welcome to the forum! This is the fourth edition D&D forum... you probably wanted to post this here in the misc. forum.

Wow! Talk about not reading the OP!

I have to say that this is completely the wrong forum to be asking this question.

I'll say that reading orders on some multi title arcs are not set in stone, as they often include simultaneous events with out an intended read order. I would say go to a local comic shop and see what they say there. Even if you end up buying on amazon or something, at least hear what they have to say on the subject.

Obvious Verbal irony was ironic and obvious.

I realise that moving this to the correct forum makes the three previous posts look a bit wierd, but it's the right thing to do!

I found a guide online (Blackest Night) that says the reading order goes like this:

If you're reading the trades there is no good way to do it, because they all happen concurrently, what I would suggest is downloading the two checklists at the link I quoted and reading the individual issues within the trades in that order.

Disregarding that, either list will do and not make much of a difference.
