During the events of Dark Nights: Metal, high school junior Derek James accidentally fell through a rift into the Dark Matter dimension. Now, as Sideways, he can create rifts in midair to leap through dimensions at will. But with that much power comes great liability-and cracks are starting to form in the fabric of the space-time continuum. Each leap that Derek takes brings the new hero one step closer to succumbing to the allure of his new power and its dark origins. Collects issues #1-6 of the New Age of Heroes series.
