DC Comics Rebirth September 2017 Solicitations Spoilers for Dark Nights Metal follow.
From DC Comics’ news release:
“Invaders from the Dark Multiverse attack Earth, giving rise to the ‘Gotham Resistance’“. The seven one-shots announced include a “different, corrupted version of Batman spawned from the Dark Multiverse.”
“With names like The Red Death, The Murder Machine, The Dawnbreaker, The Drowned, The Merciless, The Devastator and The Batman Who Laughs, it’s pretty clear that these creatures mean business and prove just how dangerous the Dark Multiverse will be for DC’s heroes,” according to said DC Entertainment Executive Editor Patrick McCallum.
DC Comics Rebirth villains take advantage of the siege by the Dark Multiverse and attempt to finally take over Gotham City. “But rest assured, DC’s bravest heroes aren’t rolling over for anybody and are ready to fight for the city’s very soul in Gotham Resistance.”
“With the combination of an event comic helmed by two of the most talented creators in comic history a legion of evil Batmen and crossover titles that show just how deeply this event impacts the DCU, fans will know now more than ever that Dark Nights: Metal is something not to be missed.”
