Like many writers and artists, Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo often give small teasers of the issues they're working on via Twitter. Now, Snyder has decided to show off one of Capullo's latest drawings for their new Robin King character from Dark Nights: Death Metal, the sequel to their popular Dark Nights Metal event.Snyder tweeted, "No one does badass like @GregCapullo does badass. The Robin King. From DEATH METAL #4."
Snyder has previously said that he considers the Robin King to be one of his scariest joint-creations, even more so than the Batman Who Laughs, a character who took the comic book world by storm and saw massive waves of popularity after his debut in 2017.
The Robin King is set to debut in Dark Nights: Death Metal #2, where his origin will be fully shown. During this mini, readers will see how and why he was given the title from the villainous Batman Who Laughs.
Dark Nights: Death Metal #1, from Snyder, Greg Capullo, Jonathan Glapion, and FCO Plascencia, is currently on sale from DC Comics.
