DC announces ‘Dark Nights: Death Metal’ hardcover with hard-rocking music video

DC Comics has released a brand-new music video trailer for the Deluxe Edition of the best-selling 'Dark Nights: Death Metal' series, written by Scott Snyder with art by Greg Capullo.

DC has released the new music video trailer on its YouTube channel recently  for the deluxe hardcover edition. The trailer, featuring the song "Now You've Really Done It," by Greg Puciato, Tyler Bates and Gil Sharone, showcases a CGI-Batman Who Laughs fighting Batman, interspersed with panels from the book featuring Wonder Woman, Nightwing, Sgt Rock and other heroes. However, the highlight of the trailer may be The Batman Who Laughs shredding on his guitar while the multiverse burns around him.

DC Comics has released some unique promotional tie-ins for Dark Nights: Death Metal. The first was a series of web-based videos featuring musicians and other pop culture figures bringing parts of the series to life. This trailer draws footage from that series. DC has also partnered with Loma Vista Records to release a special soundtrack for the book, featuring artists such as Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains and Chino Moreno of the Deftones. Tyler Bates, who helped write the song featured in the trailer, contributed to the other songs on the soundtrack as well.

Dark Nights: Death Metal brought to a head stories that had been a decade in the making and set the stage for Infinite Frontier. The trailer for the Deluxe Hardcover edition, using hard-rocking music and nightmarish visuals, sets the tone for the book perfectly
