This Wednesday , Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo will finally begin their utterly bizarre - sounding fresh comic upshot , Dark Nights : Metal . It ’s already promise crazy armour andeven softheaded Batmen , but now DC has divulge that the serial publication is pass to plunge into the deep profundity of the publisher ’s own back catalogue .
badly , if you want to preserve the surprise for this Wednesday , turn back now .
This morningThe Washington Posthas revealed that Batman will gain a key ally in his quest to discover the secrets of the ‘ Dark Multiverse ’ that will drive the novel effect — and although unfamiliar to Batman himself , it ’s a flesh Vertigo readers will be more than aware of : Dream of the Endless , from Neil Gaiman ’s originative saturnine fantasy serial Sandman .

When Sandman first began , it was an established part of the DC comics universe of discourse — and this is n’t even the first time Dream has team up with the Justice League — but since the New 52 bring up its lineament have remained unobserved , with a flimsy - at - best connection to the events of DC ’s multiverse . Now , at least one of the Endless is back , and it ’s in a big way — Dream ’s role in Metal will be more than just a cameo , according to serial publication writer Scott Snyder :
[ Dream ] has some very key moments that spin the account in its essential guidance . At the same metre , [ Metal ] really is a Justice League floor focused on their find of the Dark Multiverse and the encroachment with these evil batman [ now ] here and the desperate attack to contain that using Nth Metal .
As if we thought this series could n’t get any weirder than malevolent batman from an alternative hell - property . We ’ll have more on the wild issue of Dark Nights : Metal # 1 on Wednesday .
