Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I write comic books! Growing up, I always wanted to write comics, but I ended up trying my hand at fiction first. I got my MFA from Columbia University, published a book of short stories with The Dial Press in 2006 called Voodoo Heart, then finally broke into comics in 2009 and haven't looked back since. I've worked extensively for DC Comics, writing such titles as Batman, Detective Comics, Justice League, the comic event books DC Dark Knights Metal and Death Metal, and Swamp Thing, among others. I've also created a number of series with some great co-creators and partners -- books like We Have Demons, Clear, Night of the Ghoul, Nocterra, American Vampire, Wytches, the Wake, AD: After Death, and more... I live in NY with my wife, Jeanie and our three boys. I am also a big fan of Elvis Presley.

Amazing comics, but disappointed at damaged cover.

Amazing comics, but disappointed at damaged cover.
I believe that if you pay this much money for a book then it should arrive undamaged, but unfortunately for me this was not the case as the cover for this very expensive book was, in fact, damaged. Better luck next time, I guess.

Excellent story. Glad to see Daniel back! I've missed the Sandman books. I'm surprised they never did a movie, even an animated one. Maybe now my dream will come true.

Oh man, this is going to be a super good series. Maybe one of the best epic comic stories ever! I really did not want to get caught up in this event. I even missed Dark Nights: The Casting and this issue, when they came out in the comic shops. But I caught up via my Kindle app on my Samsung tablet. I am probably in for the whole darn epic! I keep telling you all, this has a whole first appearance of Galactus type feel to it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Bombastic romp through the DC Dark Multiverse!
Reviewed in India on April 22, 2023
There is nothing more to add about the graphic novel that has not been said, except that it is a bombastic event that takes comic book exhilarations to the max. Collects the entire Metal storyline, including all tie-ins, in chronological order. The artwork is simply out-of-this-universe (if you get my pun😉). Binding is great. Seller Bookswagon packaged the omni in bubble wrap and then a cardboard box. Was delivered without any dent or tear. As you can see from the photos, I have wrapped an extra cover over the omni to prevent additional wear and tear to the dust jacket.

About the story-

Fair warning, you have to have a basic idea of the events that transpired before...(OR you could treat whatever bits you don't get as comic book hokey and enjoy it anyway). But here's the lowdown anyway 👇

Basic idea required - All the crisis events (what happened, who died etc.), Blackest night, Rebirth and Heroes in crisis (will help later in death metal with re-emergence of Wally West)

Moderate grasp needed - Final crisis death of Batman and the return of Bruce Wayne (for how Barbatos came to be), Flashpoint, Death of the new 52 superman and emergence of the Pre-crisis superman, Darkseid War

Strong grasp on - Snyder and Capullo's Batman run (the 'metals' that Batman was imbued with).

Then you have the Metal storyline!

Follow it up with No justice, snyder's run on justice league, and then the Batman who laughs, Batman/Superman vol. 1, the Infected and then Year of the Villain Hell Arisen (collected editions). Also add in flash forward and tales from the dark multiverse, and you are ready for the next series, Death Metal!
