This tie-in has sort of slipped under the radar compared to the main miniseries and one-shots, but Joshua Williamson has been telling a tense and creepy story that works as a great complement to Dark Nights: Death Metal. Read Full Review

"Doom Metal" finds its mid-tempo groove inJustice League#55, leaning strongly into the inherent strengths of its quest-style story and really running wild with them to great effect. Strong characterization and crisp, detailed art bring it all home. Don't miss out on this one! Read Full Review

This is everything I like about Death Metal wrapped into an issue, and it's been making for a very enjoyable bi-weekly read. There's legitimate merit to wanting to make an event that tries to tackle all of continuity, ambitious as it may be: it shows a respect for the intelligence and commitment of the reader, and makes it feel like the time they invested was worthwhile. When you can do that while still making it accessible for those who haven't read everything, then you have something special on your hands. Read Full Review

This issue may not be a grand slam, but it's a helluva lot of fun. Read Full Review

Joshua Williamson and Robson Rocha continue to do a great job using the setting created by the Dark Nights: Death Metal event to tell fun story in "Doom Metal." Taking everything these characters have been through over the last few years helped enhance the impact of Justice League #55. The ending hit all the right notes to make you as the reader worry about what will happen next. Read Full Review

Robson Rocha delivers some great art. I love the retro looks during the characters delusions and there are a couple of decent thrills. The Valley of Starros reveal was definitely a highlight. Read Full Review

Justice League #55 continues the Death Metal tie in arc, and it does read better than most tie-ins. However, if you don't care about Death Metal, there are still some things to have fun with here, namely the interesting team dynamic and the fantastic art. While the book feels rushed in places, it also has some neat ideas that are worth exploring. Overall, a well made book that succeeds despite the circumstances surrounding it. Read Full Review

This story which was fun as a concept kind of falls flat for me here as we just get to the end of our journey and discover that we're all doomed like we get over and over again from the Metal stories and while it might lead to a fun action sequence in the next issue, all the interesting parts to what this team and scenario could have been was put on fast forward, losing all the fun aspects of seeing the Metalverse. The art was good though and this could lead to great things next issue, but this one didn't do it for me. Read Full Review

If you enjoy fantasy you'll get a kick out of the "Doom Metal" story arc, but so far it has lacked direction and been slow in its development. I'm curious how this story arc plays out overall, but at this point it's been an okay twist on familiar characters. Read Full Review

If you're enjoying the Dark Nights story, I'm sure this comic has value to you. Otherwise, take a pass. Read Full Review

I really like this. It has everything I wanted from this event that the main series does not have.

I’m really liking this arc.

Maybe that’s the unusual lineup, which I’ve enjoyed. (Nightwing belongs on the JL.)

Maybe it’s that I typically have low expectations for comics written by Josh Williamson. He’s usually fine but unremarkable IMO.

More likely this arc is actually very good, especially by comparison to the deadly dull Venditti fill-ins that preceded it.

Regardless of any of that I‘ve really been enjoying it.

Not as entertaining as previous issues, as the Death Metal Doomerism of it all really kicks in here. But it wasn't bad or anything.
