Citing a lack of respect towards rock music by The Grammys, Shadows says that it would a "waste of time and money" for the band to make the trip.

She even managed to bring peace to her world, even if it is one soaked in blood.

Admittedly, the Drowned doesn't have as much going on as Dawnbreaker or the Murder Machine She isn't quite as[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Well, we have hit the mid-point of the main story of DC's major event, Dark Nights Metal, and Scott Snyder, Greg Capullo, Jonathan Glapion and FCO Plascencia really hit their stride with the series and the stakes for the DC Universe.

Snyder said that he's working on something with Grant Morrison, connected somehow to #DCMetal No details were revealed on that, but it looks like Grant Morrison has got his magical fingers in all the pies since his return to DC. Bleeding Cool ace reporter Dimitrios Haritos was on hand at the panel, and he'll be filing a[...]

DC super-mega-crossover event Dark Nights: Metal is getting its own soundtrack!

At the DC Metal panel at New York Comic Con, Greg Capullo revealed that he's been a little sick while working on Metal, so DC is giving him the month off In February, between Dark Nights: Metal #5 and #6, we'll get Dark Knights Rising: The Wild Hunt, presumably focusing on the titular evil Batmen. Scott[...]

He became the Dawnbreaker. This Metal one-shot shows the darker side of Bruce's anger and will It shows what unlimited power could do in the hands of a man like the untested Bruce Wayne, and it's pretty ugly. It also gets a bit eldritch, with this Bruce gaining access to arcane powers that were likely never intended[...]

Meanwhile, John Stewart learns that the Nth Metal Golems intend to free Yuga Khan, the father of, well, Highfather (Highgrandfather?), from the Source Wall John, Guy Gardner, and a division of Green Lanterns ride out to stop them before they unleash Yuga Khan from his prison. This is another showdown issue of Hal Jordan and the[...]

Greg Capullo is a legendary artist, mustachioed muscle man, and now, Bleeding Cool has learned, a totally bitchin' guitar virtuoso. The Dark Nights: Metal artist took to Instagram this week to post a perfectly looping video of himself playing the guitar solo for the song Got Your Six by Five Finger Death Punch. View this post on[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Dark Nights: Metal #2 OK, I'm officially on board with this story now. While the first issue of Dark Nights: Metal was pretty good, I wasn't ready to proclaim its quality from the rooftops or anything I wasn't completely enthralled, but it had merit and deserved some praise for that. That has changed with Metal #2. With the[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Beware, this review does contain mild spoilers for Dark Nights: Metal #2. Dark Nights: Metal #2 comes out this week and gives us the next part in the wild, crazy DC event, and it really does continue to be something quite unlike anything that's come before.

And he has returned to that famous cover for Metal #3, with the Dark Knights from the Dark Multiverse, twisted versions of Batman expressed through aspects of the Justice League… This also gives us the first look at a few of the characters, such as the Joker version of Batman, dead centre. Is it just me, or[...]

Orion is a great character, and the implications this has for the DC Universe as well as Metal are promising. By the way, this is sort of a Metal tie-in, with the narration from last issue going on and on about metal Also, the golem is made of Nth Metal. The action is still great[...]

There is still something to talk about in regards to me not liking the Batman and talking about how the comics managed to still be enjoyable in either how the story plays out or how they present the character of Batman. That brings us to Dark Nights: Metal #1. This story begins with a brief rundown of[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Dark Nights: Metal #1 is finally out this week, and we see DC's big summer event finally start proper We've had the hints, the glancing blows from the Dark Days prologue issues, which gave us the shape of the idea, like a sonar blip on the map – but now we see it in[...]

Dark Nights: Metal artist Jonathan Glapion has posted some art from Dark Nights: Metal, and it contains a pretty shocking spoiler… Here's a page from the book that Glapion tweeted this morning, in a now-deleted tweet: https://twitter.com/jonathanglapion/status/896363324367134724 Say what? It looks like somebody has been reading our Tumblr slashfic, but they totally misunderstood what we meant by "fisting." Then[...]

The first part is establishing the new status quo after the Sinestro Corps revolt, and the other part is the setup and beginning of this book's Dark Knights: Metal tie-in with Orion and the massive celestials.
