DC Comics' big summer crossover event Knight Terrors comes to a close next week. In addition to a four-issue core miniseries, bookended by the Knight Terrors: First Blood and Knight Terrors: Night's End specials, the horror-driven saga spanned numerous DC titles across July and August, replacing the usual monthly titles with two-issue tie-in arcs.
The event, steered in large part by longtime DC architect Joshua Williamson, marks the culmination of the first half of the wider Dawn of DC initiative. Here's how the crossover repositioned the characters who have been drawn into new supervillain Insomnia's insidious scheme, and the road that Knight Terrors sets for the DCU moving forward.
