Dark Nights: Death Metal Omnibus

Product Information

Justice League: No Justice– A miniseries dealing with the consequences of the Dark Nights: Metal Event. Reading the entirety of Darkseid War just to find out what’s up with Darkseid in Metal #1 may seem crazy, but that’s the kind of comic book fan I like! My least favorite of the Dark Knights one-shots to date, but still highly relevant to the overall narrative. The conclusion of Dawnbreaker clearly connects to Green Arrow #32, bringing the series together and setting up the Justice League’s tie-ins to come.

Batman has uncovered one of the lost mysteries of the universe…one that could destroy the very fabric of the DC Universe! He’ll wage war against diabolical Dark Knights across the multiverse and come face-to-face with The Batman Who Laughs. Peter Milligan, Kieron Dwyer, and Jim Aparo’s work on “Dark Knight, Dark City” has been directly referenced in the tie-in issue Batman Lost , and will help explain the early 90’s origins of Metal’s big bad. This story is included primarily for Batman obsessives and completists!The Gotham resistance continue to fend off the invasion of the Batman Who Laughs and a Gotham turned inside out. In June 2017, DC announced seven one-shot comics that tie into the story of "Dark Nights: Metal": Batman: The Red Death, Batman: The Murder Machine, Batman: The Dawnbreaker, Batman: The Drowned, Batman: The Merciless, Batman: The Devastator, and The Batman Who Laughs. DC stated, "Each one-shot story spotlights a different, corrupted version of Batman spawned from the Dark Multiverse to wreak havoc on Earth."

Teen Titans (vol. 6) #12, Nightwing (vol. 4) #29, Suicide Squad (vol. 5) #26, Green Arrow (vol. 6) #32, The Flash (vol. 5) #33, Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #32, Justice League (vol. 3) #32–33, Batman: Lost #1, Hawkman: Found #1 Meanwhile, Batman has been investigating random frequencies that have appeared across the Earth, which he believes are a part of a bigger mystery that he has been investigating for years regarding mysterious metals and dark energy. He enlists the help of Mister Terrific to collect more data from Earth-Two. After conferring with him, he realizes that he needs to use the Anti-Monitor tower at Superman's Fortress of Solitude to further his investigations. [14]

In all honesty, Metal dives heavily into DC continuity, and as a fan of long and rich comic book universe histories, I’m head over heels in love.

Success!
