UPDATE:
A spoilers filled review of the issue is here and its genuinely a doozy.
ORIGINAL:
DC Comics Universe / Multiverse Ending Crisis Kicks Off With Dark Nights: Death Metal #1, A Checklist With A Catch, 11 Variant Covers, A Preview and Teases From The Writer! (Sans Spoilers)
Writer Scott Snyder took to twitter to reveal his Dark Nights: Death Metal…
…with a catch as revealed below.
- Quick thread: on the DC DEATH METAL checklist. Sorry for the delay – my kids didn’t like my original so we’ve made it into a family project. The final is coming, apparently with flourishes:)
Meanwhile, here’s my original one, rejected by our boys. It goes up through October.
We have two specials in August alongside DM 3 by insane talent:
– “DM: Legends of the Dark Knights” (a guide to all the evil Batmen from BRex to Darkfather…)
– and “DM: Metalverse Guidebook” (which explores the changed world of DM, from New Apokolips to Starro Canyon).
Then In September the main series takes ONE MONTH OFF but 3 key specials carry it forward:
– DM: Trinity Crisis (DC’S greatest crises revisited with a twist)
– DM: Speed Metal (flashes unite)
– DM: Multiverse’s End (GL’s try to save the remaining planets)
Then in November and December we have some more killer specials AND X-overs planned as we near our giant finale…
…BUT how many we do depends on how you’re enjoying the event, what you say you want, all of it. So the last specials and X-overs still secret and TBD :)
So ONLY look at this as a CHECKLIST THROUGH OCTOBER. Everything after that when it comes to specials, x-overs is TBD based on you all! Thanks again from everyone involved!
Also, the specials (Trinity Crisis, Guidebook, et.c) are all 38 pages each
Here are the books 11 variant covers.
The main cover.
Now onto the interior pages.
So, do these teaser and preview pages intrigue you to pick up the book this week? Dark Nights: Death Metal as an Anti-Crisis? Interesting.
