Of the sevent Twisted Batmen, this one is truly the one which makes the less sense, IMHO. If the twisted versions where those of the other Leaguer's nemesis, I could understand it, but it doesn't seem to be the case. While The Batman Who Laughs is understandable (seven founders, seven twisted Batmen so they use Joker for Batman's Batman's twist). But Doomsday ? What ties can he have to the Metal and the Dark Multiverse...

It is Doomsday though, right?

The silloute certainly looks like Doomsday, unless it's a fake out and it's Bane or a weird Bane/Doomsday hybrid for some reason. It's possible though. Both popped up in the comics around the same time and both took out their respective Superheroes within a few months of each other. In a strange way they are sorta kinda linked.

From what I can understand from the solicits, it's truly a Batman-Doomsday hybrid. My guess is that he is some the result of the Dark Multiverse's reaction to Batman's touch. But what I can't understand is why the Multiverse would fuse Batman and Doomsday. Four of the other "fusions" have been in contact with the Dark Multiverse through Metals (Joker, Diana, Arthur and Hal), two may have connections to it (Vic and Barry), Batman is the one willing to enter the Dark Multiverse proper, but what about Doomsday ?

Perhaps D.C. will explains his ability to return from the dead stronger as linked to the Dark Multiverse ? (If the later is what I think it is).

[Lvenger]

Of course the Dark Multiverse is full of Batman fusions. Bat-Doomsday, Bat-Wonder Woman, Bat-Flash, because we all know how important Batman is in the DC Universe. Kinda dampens my hype about Metal.

This is all still so incredibly blah to me. I don't know where its going and I still don't really care. At this point I'm just praying this whole thing isn't a harbinger of the good 2017 DC has had thus far being flushed down the toilet.

[stephens2177]

If they explained HOW the dark.multiverse or atleast HOW batman could morph into all these generic mixes of JL and villian beings,I think ppl would be onboard for this more,cause right now this still looks more meh,than wow.

Maybe they could have Kon comeback as a prisoner over in that dark realm,that would make it 1000% better right away lol.

If there's anything more over-the-top than the power of Lois and Clark overwriting the universe, it's surely Bat-Saturation

[JasonTodd428]

I honestly don't care. I'm not interested in the event or the tie-ins myself and so long as they keep the Superman line away from any tie-in nonsense I'll be a very happy camper.

[Last Son of Krypton]

Bat-Flash, Bat-Aquaman... Is it the first step to re-branding all DC characters with the next relaunch to make them more profitable?

And is it any wonder whose writing it, lol?

[Maxi]

Dan Jurgens said some weeks ago he was working with Jon Bogdanove on something that would be announced very soon. This could be it and it would make sense given that' it involves some version of Doomsday.

I'd say definitely Doomsday. That same logo has been used in Smallville.

Honestly, this is a great time to be a Superman's fan (If only they bring Conner and The Kents back...).
Unfortunately, in my opinion, the same CAN'T be said about Batman.

This looks like another Zack Snyder nonsense. I know I'll have to read the issues before judging them completely, but... you know... this whole concept looks idiotic.
So Snyder's idea (the one he's been sponsoring all over the place for a couple of years) was: ok, let Batman touch the dark matter... and let the dark matter take shape of 7 twisted Batmen mirroring every guy in the Justice League.

I mean... SERIOUSLY?????

The earlier DC gets rid of Snyder and his crew the better for Batman and the entire DC Comics itself.

Oh, and in the meanwhile, please, get rid of that ZERO YEAR crap too...
