Tales from the Dark Multiverse: Dark Nights Metal #1
In the shattered remnants of the Dark Multiverse, the Justice League’s desperate stand against Barbatos ended not in victory, but in transformation—reborn as monstrous servants under his control.

Written by Scott Snyder, Jackson Lanzing, and Collin Kelly, with art by Karl Mostert and inks by Trevor Scott and Norm Rapmund, and colored by Romulo Fajardo Jr., this chilling tale from the *Dark Nights: Metal* anthology is a haunting reimagining of the ultimate fall of hope—cover by David Marquez.
