DARK CRISIS: YOUNG JUSTICE #4
Superboy, Robin, and Impulse are attacked by the JLA and the Titans as they struggle to come to terms with the world in which they’ve been stranded. The struggle is greatest for Superboy who feels like he wants to belong here rather than return to the real world and deal with his death and subsequent rebirth. He tries to convince Robin and Impulse that staying here may not be a bad thing.
Trying to find the missing heroes, Wonder Girl and Cissie are taken by Red Tornado to the Titans Tower. As Tornado attempts to find transport that can take them off world to find the others, Wonder Girl and Cissie argue with Wonder Girl feeling abandoned by her friend and former team-mate. Eventually, they manage to track down Wonder Woman’s invisible plane and use that to head into space. There they are attacked by space mites and Cissie almost dies attempting to defeat them, but is saved by Tornado., before a glowing light appears.
As the fight with the JLA and Titans continue, Impulse forces the other two to realise how poorly they’ve treated him in the past. He also realises that the world is made up of their imperfect memories and works out who is behind everything. When he does so, the young Mickey Mxyzptlk arrives, claiming to be their biggest fan.
THE FLASH #786
With Deathstroke’s army rampaging over Earth, the Titans gather as many heroes as they can and give them different assignments, with areas to protect and show the people they still have heroes.
Wally, Linda, and the other speedsters arrive and bring everyone up to speed on what’s happened in their quest to find Barry and how he has remained behind to find the Justice League.
Linda begrudgingly allows Irey and Jai to tag along with them, and is given a uniform of her own before they head out, helping the other heroes, including Animal Man and his daughter Animal Girl.
They find the JSA in Europe, where half their team has been captured by zombie Nazis. As some of them deal with the undead horde, Flash, Linda, and Irey rescue the trapped members from Klarion the Witch Boy.
Once the threat is over, Wally receives a message asking all heroes to return to the Hall of Justice.
DARK CRISIS: THE DEADLY GREEN #1
Jade and her brother Obsidian are summoned to the basement of the Hall of Justice, home of the Justice League Dark, where their father – Green Lantern Alan Scott – has gathered with other heroes to discuss a plan for discovering just what has corrupted the Great Darkness.
Obsidian will use his powers of darkness to take himself and other heroes into Green Lantern’s magic ring where they will seek out information about the Great Darkness while Green Lantern himself uses his will power to prevent the world within the ring from collapsing.
As the heroes fight against the inevitable encroachment of the Darkness, they find a column of darkness which they struggle to reach, Superman and Swamp Thing becoming more violent and impatient with every passing moment, forcing Raven to lead them to the column.
John Constantine is confronted by the Great Darkness itself, using various identities, as it tells him of the inevitability of the crisis. Constantine retorts that he’s seen this happen before and believes that people will come out the other side.
Raven manages to convince Superman and Swamp Thing that the surroundings are corrupting them and helps them work together, as they merge, with Swamp Thing forming a living armour around Superman. With this protection, they are able to get to the column of darkness where they find a machine stuck in the black.
They are able to tear it free and as they do, Constantine is watching and recognises it as Pariah’s original machine and realises Pariah is the source of everything. With that knowledge achieved, the Darkness ejects Constantine, at the same time the heroes return to the Hall of Justice’s basement, along with the machine that Pariah used to start the first Crisis.
