I haven't read Cyborg before this so I'm not familiar with his story. But I liked Murder Machine. It wasn't as good as other parts of the story, but after rereading it I liked more than my first time through.
Too dark and twisted.
Things are starting to make sense, and I really like the darkness of this arc. Too many people today are caught up on making hero arcs lighter, and I simply ask, “why?”.
Very off-beat, but one of the really good Dark Metal spin-off stories. This Dark Universe is taking us down a strange dark path. Fun to be along for the ride.
These tie-ins make more sense to me than the actual Metal miniseries right now. They're also dark as hell. I handed them over to my co-worker with a "Holy crap, do not blame me for this" look.
Dark as hell, but the incredible art and the focus on Cyborg make up for it. You can see the pencil markings and the gray color palette really works.

Well, how can anyone defeat Batman, really? Cyborg sure as hell can’t. Who is he kidding? Especially with crazyass virtual Alfred going around? So easy to exploit the Victor within the cyborg. I liked the Red Death story a lot more, but this ain’t bad.
That art was beautifully stunning. Just gorgeous. Again, as an Elseworld story, it was pretty darned good. I'd say that I called the "reveal" at the end. But I don't think it's done, yet. I think that's coming back in the series.
Choo choo, motherfucker
The artist is the real hero here. Of all the Dark Nights titles, this one has got realistic looking characters. An attention to detail, capturing human expression and facial tones. A lot of effort went to art alone. Story-wise, you feel more horrified of what technology can do uninhibited. The catalyst for turning Bruce into the Murder Machine, is someone else. It's not scary as the other titles, but is a good one.
Not as cool as The Red Death, but still an interesting concept.
Melhor arte de Metal até agora, e uma puta história dark pra cacete, ta no padrão de qualidade que o evento ta tendo até agora.
Para muchos el mejor comic de origen de estos caballeros, para mi de los mejores sin llegar a ser el mejor, un arte increible que tiene detras una historia que para mi desgracia no tiene tan buen ritmo como esperaba hasta sus paginas finales, aun asi de los mejores comics de origen de la serie.
2.5 StarsIt's the Tie-in that I don't liked the least so far, the story had a lot of potential until at one point it felt like a horror movie, but the whole Alfred thing seemed pointless to me, I did not like art at all and The title seems a bit silly to me.Es el Tie-in que menos me ha gustado hasta el momento, la historia tenía mucho potencial hasta en un punto se sintió como una película de terror, pero todo el asunto de Alfred me pareció sin sentido, el arte no me gusto para nada y el titúlo
Another great tie-in! At first I thought it would be kind of lame to have dark Batman-esque versions of all the league characters but I'm loving each backstory of the dark knights and how they fit into the event. Can't wait for the Supes one!!! I'm hoping its the massive Doomsday looking guy!! :D
Tie-in comics in my experience have a reputation of far from being good compared with the main events. Snyder's main Court and City of Owls were overwhelmingly good while the Night of the Owls tie-in stories were just mediocre with some truly standing out (like Nightwing's Gray Son of Gotham). So aside from having a delicious collection of foil-covered evil Batmen origin stories, there's really none I expect these comics would be, but so far the issues are surprisingly great and super enjoyable....
dc metal batman is fucking lit y'all !!!
A twisted metal mish mash of Batman, Elseworlds & DC Crisis.The death of Alfred and the birth of the Alfred Protocol. Turns Bruce Wayne into BatBorg.
