NEWS WATCH: DC UNIVERSE’s Fan Competition Is Back With Meta Madhouse: Tournament of Terror

WHAT: DC UNIVERSE’s popular fan bracket-style competition is back with “Meta Madhouse:  Tournament of Terror,” where 64 of DC’s most popular villains compete for the title of “Meta Madhouse Champion 2020” and “The Ultimate DC Villain.” The tournament is free and open to all DC UNIVERSE members, and the winner of this year’s competition will score a trip to the premiere of Wonder Woman 1984.

Leading this year’s tournament are The Joker Maniacs, Darkseid Invaders, Lex Luthor Masterminds and The Cheetah Beasts. In a twist of events, DC UNIVERSE also unlocked a new feature called the “Lazarus Pit Save,” which allows four secretly-selected villains, one from each team bracket, to reverse the results of any single match-up they lose in the first four rounds of competition. DC talent, including Brian Michael Bendis (SUPERMAN), Phil Jimenez (WONDER WOMAN), Echo Kellum (CW’s “Arrow”) and Phil Morris (DOOM PATROL) secretly awarded these villains the pit maneuver prior to the tournament, which can be activated any time before the semi-finals. Once activated, the villain will proceed to the next round, but will be eliminated from the competition should they lose another match-up thereafter.

Fans can participate now by submitting their own predictions at DCUniverse.com/MMContest for each match-up before voting begins on Friday, March 6th at 10AM PST. Each correct guess will garner points, and the fan with the most points wins a three (3)-day, two (2)-night trip to the premiere of Wonder Woman 1984. DC UNIVERSE will provide travel, tickets and hotel and food accommodations to the Prize Winner and one (1) travel companion. The contest is administered by Entergrate, Inc.
