  The Flash and Steel help Superman travel to the Dark Multiverse to rescue Batman. The Justice League and their allies have split into teams to search for Nth Metal to defeat the Dark Knights, but all teams are captured by the Dark Nights except for The Flash and Steel, who are confronted by The Murder Machine and The Devastator. The Flash is transported to Central City, where all citizens, including Iris and Wally, have been aged and are under the control of the Red Death. Separated from their allies, The Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, and Wonder Woman each face off against a Dark Knight.

Publisher’s description

After the harrowing events of DARK NIGHTS: METAL #3, the JUSTICE LEAGUE has scattered around the world to find the only artifacts that can fight back against the invasion of the Dark Multiverse. The League thinks they know how to take back their world, but they are not prepared for who is standing in their way. The Seven Dark Knights of the Dark Multiverse. All the brilliance of Batman, but none of the morals. Barry Allen, The Fastest Man Alive, is the first to get a taste of their plan, as BATMAN: THE RED DEATH takes him on at the Fortress of Solitude.
