Giant-sized Wonder Woman, decked out in golden armor from the World Forge, faces off against the Batman Who Laughs on the battle-ravaged ruins of Themyscira while all the surviving heroes and villains of Earth battle their evil, fear-inspired doppelgangers for the fate of the Multiverse. At 80 pages, this is not so much an anthology of stories as it is a series of vignettes from different locations on the battlefield, each from the perspective of a different set of characters. Some of the scenes are bizarre, some harrowing, and one, in particular, manages to find a little humor at the end of existence. The writing and art style varies in style from scene to scene but at the very least you wind up with a very thorough setup for the final battle.
It's time to head on back down into the Dark Multiverse for the final time as we hear Tempus Fuginaut's last story of darkness and woe, where this time we'll be seeing the outcome of the world if Barbatos had successfully pulled Earth-0 into his realm. Let's jump into this story and see who the heroes will be and what has come of our heroes of old. Let's check it out.
It's the finale to the story that felt like it took forever to start, that really didn't have our Justice League do much of anything except for talk about family and fight ice monsters around the world. Maybe that's fine for some but for an event that took up the entire month and one that is taking place in our current timeline before two months full of dark futures and little else, I was looking for more out of this 9 part event. Hopefully with this ending things will feel like it was all worth it and what felt like padding before will feel more like useful installments. Let's check it out.
