Earth's greatest heroes have defeated grave threats from Apokolips, but not at a grave price. Left in their stead is a group of young, untrained heroes who pick up the pieces in the dusty aftermath. The Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, and the Atom are humanity's nascent guardians, but not the ones we've all known and revered.
The World Army has begun rounding up the super-heros of Earth 2, but for what reason? In an attempt to avoid capture, Dr Fate and Kid Flash find themselves in the powerful magical realm of Nabu. The protector of Nabu, Wotan, seeks Dr Fates assistance in obtaining a secret magic locked deep within a tower that only Dr Fate can enter.
The wonders of Earth 2, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, Flash, Atom Smasher, The Sandman, Mr Terrific, and Dr Fate, take on the forces of Steppenwolf and the Hunger Dogs of Apokolips when all hope is lost. Now, a new Batman enters the fray, but is he enough to turn the tide and prevent Darkseid from taking control of Earth 2?
Once thought dead, Superman now returns to Earth to do the destructive bidding of Darkseid! The Wonders of Earth 2 have struggled to keep the forces of Brutal and Darkseid at bay. But now with the return of Superman, they can no longer stand up to the wake of destruction he brings.
Superman is the most powerful being in the universe. And for once, that's not a good thing. The Last Son of Krypton is now an enforcer of Darkseid, the evil despot who will stop at nothing to take over Earth 2. However, there is one man who can stop them and that's... Superman?
Cataclysm has come to Earth-2. The forces of Darkseid, which were thought to have been repelled years ago, have struck back with a vengeance. Apokolips itself is attacking the Earth, with Darkseid's Furies leading the charge of destruction. This may be humanity's final hour. But Earth-2 is not without its defenders. There are the heroes, like Huntress, Power Girl and Batman. There are the soldiers of the World Army. There's Green Lantern and his fellow Avatars of the Earth, wielding the power of the planet's plant life, animal life and even the air and water. But it's Doctor Fate, the powerful but inexperienced sorcerer, who alone may have the ability to repel Apokolips and save the planet. Empowered by the Helm of the ancient wizard Nabu, Doctor Fate could turn the tide against Apokolips...or, if the Helm were to fall into the hands of Darkseid's servants, Fate could be handing absolute power and total victory to Earth's enemies!

Wilson (Robopocalypse), Marguerite Bennett (DC COMICS: BOMBSHELLS), Tom Taylor (INJUSTICE YEAR THREE) and Mike Johnson (SUPERGIRL) and artist Andy Smith (TEEN TITANS: FUTURE'S END).
