Doom Metal, Justice League’s upcoming tie-in storyline to Dark Nights: Death Metal, comes to an end this November. Here’s a first look.
As Dark Nights: Death Metal continues to spread the Batman Who Laughs’ nightmarish influence across the DC Universe, a ragtag group of heroes, form an impromptu Justice League lineup to travel the hellish new vision of Earth on a vital mission to stop him in the upcoming tie-in storyline “Doom Metal.” Written by Joshua Williamson and illustrated by a team of rotating artists including Xermanico, Robson Rochoa and Daniel Henriques, the five-issue arc in the pages of Justice League pits new Dark Knights against the motley crew of heroes.
DC Comics has released the covers and advance solicitation information for this November’s Justice League #56 and #57, the final two chapters of “Doom Metal,” with by covers by Liam Sharp. And as you can see in Sharp’s art, things look pretty dire for both Martian Manhunter and Nightwing.
