Time for another preview from our friends at DC Comics. This week, the publisher’s huge Lazarus Planet event reaches a dramatic conclusion and sets up next week’s return of Batman vs. Robin.
Mark Waid returns to pen the story, alongside Gene Luen Yang. The pair are teaming with artists Philip Tan, Billy Tan, Mike Perkins, Riccardo Federici plus colourists Brad Anderson and Sebastian Cheng.
The issue features main cover art by Alejandro Sánchez. Sanchez also provides one of the issue’s huge gallery of variant covers. Other artists working on covers include Riccardo Federici, David Marquez, Bernard Chang, Ben Oliver, Lee Garbett, Pete Woods, Felipe Massafera, Jen Bartel, Tiago Da Silva, Ariel Colon, Edwin Galmon and Helene Lenoble.

The synopsis teases the beginning of the end of the huge Lazarus storm as well as one final, Earth-shattering reveal…
FATE AND FURY. The Devil Nezha and his son are at war-with all of humanity caught in the middle! The Lazarus storms are intensifying worldwide, Earth’s superheroes are on the ropes, and Batman is living on borrowed time. It’s up to Zatanna, the Spectre, the Demon, Klarion, and the rest of the DCU’s magic users to join Damian Wayne and set things right-but to do that, they’ll have to uncover Nezha’s final, explosive secret! Plus: Dreamer has rescued Doctor Fate’s helmet from destruction…but why does it keep glowing like that? The Dawn of the DCU begins as the Lazarus Planet saga crashes to a close!
Along side that stunning cover gallery, DC has provided us with a handful of preview pages which you can check out below. Beware spoilers!
