Death Metal #7, the big finale to Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's DC Comics event comic is published this coming Tuesday.

DC Comics continues to bet the farm on switching from single serialised storylines in monthly ongoing comic books, to a more European model, larger comic books with multiple stories inside each cover, that were once popular in the UK.
