This teaser establishes there will be more than one of them in existence as we head into the final battle between the heroes and Barbatos.

Also of interest here is that the villain is perched atop the cosmic tuning fork that Batman left beneath Superman's Fortress of Solitude. With the Batman Who Laughs (and his band of demonic Robins) hanging around, it appears this could be the site of the final stand against the forces of the Dark Multiverse.
