Welcome to this weeks spec and drek, where we pick the winners each week we think will be spec worthy, a great read or just cool looking art on the cover. I also dive into the pesky drek, the book you should probably avoid if you can or perhaps not invest so heavily into.

DrunkWooky Comic Review: Dark Nights Death Metal Legends of the Dark Knights (Snyder, Capullo, Various 2020)
This article was originally published on DrunkWooky.com.
Beware spoilers abound!
Dark Nights Death Metal Legends of the Dark Knights is probably the comic with the longest name this week and probably the one most talked about. It has the first appearance of Robin King inside (depending on how you look at it) and some background on a lot of Batman Who Laugh’s Dark Knights. If you were expecting full on origin stories for each Dark Knight, this book delivers with varying degrees of success. Some of the stories are only two pages long, after all.
