Metron recalls a long-ago pact between New Genesis and Apokolips that allowed him to continue to observe the universe. He also recalls how that peace, and the entire universe, was threatened by the Anti-Monitor and the creation of a single universe that followed that crisis. Since then, time has been restarted, the multiverse returned, and then in a flash recently reborn, though it has yet to solidify. So to ensure he can continue to observe, Metron seeks out the Anti-Monitor, who, spurred by a recent convergence of timelines, has new plans to mount war against Darkseid, now with a new ally.
