When high school junior Derek James fell into the Dark Multiverse and came out on the other side with the power to create rifts through space, he didn't make a vow to use his powers for good. He just wanted to make a splash as the first superhero to livestream his exploits for his fans--Sideways! But soon Derek finds that peddling his powers for likes and followers isn't the dream life he thought it would be. There are some serious bad guys out there, including a few who'd like to tear Sideways apart to learn about the Dark Energy that makes him tick.
The world needs Sideways to be a hero. His mom needs him to stay safe and out of trouble. And Derek needs to figure out how to use his rifts without hurting anyone...or destroying the planet.
Sideways is a new kind of hero, rising from the pages of
Dark Nights: Metal, created by artist Kenneth Rocafort (
