Dark Nights: Metal continues with the heroes backed into a corner and pulling a desperate gambit to save everyone. Also Detective Chimp shows up.

CBR published a very interesting theory on the notion that the real big bad of Doomsday Clock, the new 4-issue event from Geoff Johns, Gary Frank and Brad Anderson coming November that promises to be the resolution of the DC/Watchmen/Rebirth mystery, may in fact be Superboy-Prime. It's a great article, with a ton of fantastic points[...]

As "The Button" crossover comes to a close in FLASH #22 this Wednesday, the four page epilogue affirms the mystery will continue with DOOMSDAY CLOCK from Johns and legendary artists Gary Frank and Brad Anderson. "It's time Last year, the DC Universe confronted the legacy of Watchmen in Rebirth the way Watchmen confronted the legacy of[...]

Anyone who has seen Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the incredibly long, clunky titled last major instalment in the DC connected film universe (Suicide Squad didn't really further the connected universe much, let's be honest), featured what was essentially Doomsday in the film…though drastically different from the comics. Because after all, this Doomsday was made[...]

Doomsday is almost unstoppable, killed Superman and seems to just want to destroy everything in his path… that to me a scarier. I have a hard time with Etrigan the Demon and Swamp Thing being on the list as they basically have good intent I'm sure they're monsters to the people they are going after, but[...]

In the final BvS 101 to go with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Jason Inman takes a look at Doomsday Originally created back in 1992 to kill the Man of Steel, the backstory of the character didn't come until much later But his backstory makes him a bit more sympathetic and what was called[...]

In this supercut we see all of the kills that take place first in the car chase scene and then later when he's off rescuing Martha Kent. And no one seems upset that Superman killed Doomsday… just saying. [youtube]https://youtu.be/GgkQS7q6sT0[/youtube] So, the big thing out of Man of Steel was that Superman killed General Zod[...]

After all, he came back from the dead after being killed by Doomsday, after all. I am noticing a theme. We were previously told that the New 52 Superman died at the hands of Doomsday In Action Comics, Lois and Jimmy met at the memorial to his death. And yes, nicely appropriate last line there And we also[...]

Now it's pretty obvious that if you are making a top ten list of Superman fights from the comics, the clash between the Kryptonian and Doomsday will top the list Can you think of the other 9 before watching the video? I was surprised by a few… and in one of them he literally tears[...]

Mattel began selling their "last" DC Universe Classics figure – an oversized Doomsday figure – on their Mattycollector site last Tuesday – for current subscribers of their Masters of the Universe line -and Wednesday for the rest of us. Doomsday was listed as available, in-stock, and when bought, the customer received an e-mail that the item was getting ready[...]

And like Superman/Wonder Woman #10 this week, in which Superman has been infected by Doomsday And not only has he increased in mass and sprouted bone growth around his body and face… but his trunks grew back again. And they don't even get burnt off. Although somehow by the end of the comic… they have gone, as[...]

Bleeding Cool sources who have been rather reliable in the past have told us that they have seen Batman V Superman designs for the character of Doomsday.In the comics, Doomsday was the creature who killed Superman, in an epic battle across all the Superman titled, culminating a battle composed entirely of splash pages drawn by[...]

Alter also basically nonchalantly drops that DC supervillain Doomsday may also be in the movie. Need to talk to some people tnite about #doomsday in #BatmanvsSuperman — Daniel Alter (@DAlter007) December 3, 2013 So… I hope Henry Cavill's multi-picture contract is airtight. So the guy that mentioned a semi-tired and drone flying Batman in Batman vs Superman has[...]

We know Superman died at the hands of Doomsday in the New 52… but did it happen in exactly the same way as before? Doomsday #1 has a stab at answering it If that stab is by a blind man holding a spork Because you get the whole tale rather filtered… Look, we get another splash page[...]

But at least you now know what you're getting. Think again. DC Comics have told retailers that for next week, they will get 93% of their prevous orders for Bane #1, 84% of their orders for Doomsday #1 and 90% of their orders for Parasite #1. Thankfully there are no further allocations on next week's Joker's Daughter (currently[...]

Originally published by Charlton in the seventies, then republished by Fantagraphics in the eighties, Doomsday + 1 was John Byrne's first "proper" comic book series, created with Joe Gill In which a South American country fires nuclear missiles against the USA and the USSR simultaneously, each of whom then retaliate against the other Three astronauts[...]

Today's Action Comics #16 not only tells us that Superman did indeed die at the hands of Doomsday (and that it happened three years ago, two years into Superman's public existence), but it wallows in it A chance to mourn again as Superman is attacked extradimensionally in a number of different time zones – which[...]

That Brits may be able to take advantage of. They are listing the complete hardcover compiling Ultimate Comics Doomsday, the Brian Bendis trilogy of Ultimate Enemy, Ultimate Mystery and Ultimate Doom, as if it just the Premiere HC edition of Ultimate Enemy With the price to match. But not the page count, 288, all in. For £14.99[...]
