The Doom Patrol #1 Preview

 


When members of the Teen Titans and the Doom Patrol got together last year, Beast Boy grew closer to Beast Girl, while Cyborg shared his struggles with Robotman. But everything has changed since Darkseid invaded reality. Cyborg leads a group of New Titans in a former Justice League stronghold. And Doom Patrol's leader, Dr Niles Caulder, worries about the future. 

Why does Niles contemplate the cyclical nature of time as he studies a photo of himself with Robotman, Elasti-Girl, and Negative Man? And why, buoyed by such an optimistic philosophy, does Niles suffer from a recurring nightmare?

Here's all the info from DC Connect:

Usher The Doom Patrol to The Next Level!

 

 

The Doom Patrol is broke. Adopting a heroes-for-hire business model to stave off financial and emotional ruin, the team finds itself responding to a simple case—a missing cat. But when this case proves to be far from simple, the world’s strangest heroes find themselves pulled into a truly out-of-this-world situation! And elsewhere, beyond the view of Robotman, Elasti-Girl, and Negative Man—and perhaps even beyond the veil of our reality—a ghost of the team’s past is preparing to cross into their world.

 

The visionary team of Eisner Award-winning writer Darcy Van Poelgeest (Little Bird) and legendary artist Niko Henrichon (Spectators, Pride of Baghdad) ushers the Doom Patrol into a new age for DC Next Level.
