Dark Nights: Death Metal - DC Debuts the Metalverse in Interactive Map - June 30, 2020 at 03:27PM

DC has unveiled an interactive map for the Metalverse, the twisted new DC Universe featured in Dark Nights: Death Metal, the newly-launched event series by writer Scott Snyder and artist Greg Capullo.

CBR had a first look at the Metalverse map during a video conference call with Snyder ahead of the release of Death Metal #1. The map, illustrated by Jared Blando, allows fans to hover over an area of the Metalverse to discover how The Batman Who Laughs has reshaped the DCU. A static version of the Metalverse map can be found below, with the interactive map found at DC’s dedicated Metal website.

Hovering over various sections of the Metalverse interactive map reveal Bludhaven being overrun by the Slaughter Swamp; the Arkham Wastelands, where Captain Atom sacrificed himself to stop the Batman Who Laughs; Toymaster’s Vault, which is rumored to have an entrance shaped like a giant toy chest; the last remnants of the Red on Earth, now called the Junglelands; the Seven Seas, where Aquaman and his Black Fleet patrol the waters for the Batman Who Laughs; the villain’s stronghold on Gotham, complete with giant Joker dragons roaming the skies; the Hellscape, where the BatMage ripped open the door to Hell; the remade Metropolis ruled by the Tyrant Sun, Solaris; Machine City One, home of DC’s A.I. that were overwhelmed by Batmanhunter and his Manhunter Army; the graveyard for thousands of Lanterns, now known as Valley of the Rainbow Rings; Megapokolips, where Superman is currently held prisoner; Warworld, an arena built for the amusement of the Dark Multiverse Batmen; and Mr. Freeze’s Fortress of Sorrow.

The Death Metal Metalverse map will be explored further in August’s Dark Nights: Death Metal Guidebook.
