It presents the aftermath of the 'Convergence' event and the return of classic elements to the DC Universe, setting the stage for a new era of storytelling.
In "The Clock Is Ticking Across the DC Universe!, Chapter 1: Lost," Geoff Johns and artists Gary Frank and Ethan Van Sciver launch a pivotal moment in the DC Rebirth era, as Wally West—lost to time and aged back to his Kid Flash form—struggles to make sense of a universe that forgot him. With haunting visuals by Tony S. Daniel on the cover, this issue sets the stage for a multiversal mystery, where the echoes of Flashpoint ripple through a timeline rewritten in ways only Wally can perceive.
In "The Clock Is Ticking Across the DC Universe!, Chapter 1: Lost," Wally West—once Kid Flash, now a ghost of the past—awakens in a timeline that remembers him only as a memory, his youth restored but his place erased. He reaches out to Batman, hoping for recognition, only to be pulled back into the Speed Force before answers can be found. The story quietly unravels the lingering echoes of Flashpoint’s aftermath, where time itself feels stitched together with hidden seams.
In "The Clock Is Ticking Across the DC Universe!, Chapter 2: Legacy," Wally West reaches out to an aging Johnny Thunder, desperate to rally the Justice Society—though Johnny can no longer summon his Thunderbolt.

In "The Clock Is Ticking Across the DC Universe!, Chapter 3: Love," the weight of loss hangs heavy as heroes gather to mourn Superman’s death in the New 52 timeline.

In "The Clock Is Ticking Across the DC Universe!, Chapter 4: Life," Wally West flickers through moments of the past, unseen and forgotten by everyone he once knew—until he reaches Barry Allen, whose sudden memory of him offers a fragile chance to return. Meanwhile, Batman uncovers a mysterious object in the Batcave, a silent echo of Wally’s brief, desperate journey back to the world.
In the quiet ruins of a Martian outpost, a broken watch is carefully restored—its ticking a quiet echo of a universe remade. Two figures, unseen and unnamed, reflect on the choice that reshaped reality, their words hanging in the silence like the final seconds of a time long past.
In "Superman: Rebirth," the Superman of the post-Crisis universe encounters Lana Lang at his tomb, where he shares the story of his death and resurrection.
