Dark Nights: Metal #5

In "Metal [Part Five]," the battle for Earth reaches a fever pitch as Barbatos pushes to summon his armies from the Dark Multiverse. Superman and Batman face off against a twisted Hawkman at the Forge of Worlds, while Aquaman and Deathstroke are ambushed by Black Manta, Wonder Woman is confronted by Black Adam and Lady Blackhawk, and a desperate trio—Green Lantern, Mr. Terrific, and Martian Manhunter—race to stop Onimar Synn and Starro from weaponizing Plastic Man’s egg form. With the Dark Knights returning to the fray, the line between hero and villain blurs in this high-stakes clash. Written by Scott Snyder and brought to life by Greg Capullo, Jonathan Glapion, FCO Plascencia, and Steve Wands, with a cover by Capullo and Glapion, this issue delivers relentless tension and escalating stakes.
