The next insane chapter in the Death Metal saga is here – a new god has risen, and he spells doom for the multiverse in this preview of Dark Nights: Death Metal – Rise of the New God #1!
DetailsThe Scumbag #1
The Scumbag #1 ( @Remender @lewislarosa @MorenoDinisio @ruswooton) is a profane, gnarly, gut-bustingly hilarious look at a world whose fate is in the hands of the absolute worst person on it. Ernie Ray Clementine may not be anyone’s idea of a hero, but he’s got the job whether he wants it or not (though he’d rather just roll a joint).#ImageComics
Details“Doom Metal” finds its mid-tempo groove in Justice League #55 ( @Williamson_Josh Robson Rocha @DHenriquesinks @rfajardojr) , leaning strongly into the inherent strengths of its quest-style story and really running wild with them to great effect. Strong characterization and crisp, detailed art bring it all home. Don’t miss out on this one!
DetailsDark Nights: Death Metal – Robin King #1 ( @PeterJTomasi @rileyrossmo1 @ivanplascencia Rob Leigh) takes its title character and fleshes him out in surprising and even nuanced ways. Amid the unhinged terror this tween wonder unleashes without even trying, there’s a character worth caring about! Come for the carnage, stay for the new favorite villain.

See the unholy rise of the ROBIN KING and his groblin army in this preview of Dark Nights: Death Metal – Robin King #1 ( @PeterJTomasi @rileyrossmo1 @ivanplascencia Rob Leigh)! Can anyone defeat the most horrifying tween ever?!
DetailsFlash #763 (Shinick, Henry, Maiolo, Wands) is a hollow, forgettable reading experience. From a paper-thin plot to hackneyed emotional beats to art that just doesn’t work, this is one to skip from start to finish.
DetailsDark Nights: Death Metal #4
Dark Nights: Death Metal #4 ( @Ssnyder1835 @GregCapullo @jonathanglapion) finds itself spinning its wheels a bit narratively when it should be charging ahead full-speed. It isn’t a bad issue per se, but it does feel a bit like the story is stuck in neutral. #dccomics

SNEAK PEEK: Flash #763 ( @KevinShinick @claytonhenryart Marcelo Maiolo @swands) On sale 10/13! It’s the beginning of a bold new era for the Fastest Man Alive – but thanks to the Trickster, he may not survive it! #dccomics

SNEAK PEEK: Superman #26 (Bendis, Reis, Miki, Sinclair, Sharpe): IN STORES TUESDAY, OCTOBER 13! In “Mythological” part two, Superman battles Synmar – but will the toughest foe Kal-El has ever faced take Earth with them in their knock-down drag-out battle?!
DetailsFor better or worse, Justice League #54 (Williamson, Xermanico, Fajardo Jr., Napolitano) continues the “Doom Metal” story, but offers little in the way of originality despite some strong character beats. The art is great and suits the tale, but readers might find themselves feeling more ho-hum than blown away.
