Earth 2 #3
This volume collects issues #13-16 and the Earth 2 Annual #1 of DC's New 52 series, continuing the alternate-world saga as the Wonders face a devastating assault from the forces of Apokolips. The story ramps up the conflict with Darkseid's invasion, forcing new heroes like The Flash, Hawkgirl, and Green Lantern to unite in a desperate battle cry for survival. Written by Tom Taylor with art by Nicola Scott and others, this arc deepens the stakes for a world already shattered by war.
In "Secrets and Origins," Al Pratt journeys to Cambodia chasing the mystery of Henri Roy, his mind drifting back to the moment his powers first emerged—unaware that Batman is tracking him from the shadows. Batman’s own mission leads him to Mister Icicle, who directs him toward Hawkgirl, while in the wilds of a jungle that mirrors Gotham City, Scott Free and Barda face a sudden threat from Fury. Written by James Robinson and brought to life by Cafu, Julius Gopez, and Cam Smith, with colors by Pete Pantazis and letters by Carlos M. Mangual, this issue blends personal revelation with urgent pursuit. The cover, by Andy Kubert, captures the tension of unseen forces at play.

Meanwhile, deep in the wilds of Gotham City’s jungle, Scott Free and Barda face a sudden threat from Fury.
In "1,370º C," Captain Steel confronts a chilling threat beneath the smoldering ruins of an Apokoliptian fire-pit deep in Brazil, while Hawkgirl fights for survival against relentless Apokoliptian soldiers—just as Batman arrives on the scene, drawn into a conflict far beyond Gotham’s borders.
In "Battle Cry," Green Lantern, Doctor Fate, and Flash push ahead with a daring strike against Steppenwolf’s forces, but they’re met with resistance from within the World Army itself. As tensions flare and the battlefield erupts, Steppenwolf unleashes his own line of super-powered warriors, turning the tide in unpredictable ways.
