Justice League: The Darkseid War Saga Omnibus #[nn]

In the wake of a fractured multiverse reborn, Metron—ever the watcher—recounts a forgotten pact between New Genesis and Apokolips, a fragile peace shattered by the Anti-Monitor’s rise and the birth of a single, doomed universe. Now, as time stutters and realities re-form, Metron ventures into the unknown, seeking the Anti-Monitor himself, whose renewed designs point toward a war with Darkseid—and a shocking new alliance.

In the opening chapter of *Justice League: The Darkseid War Saga Omnibus*, the Justice League is drawn into a brutal mystery when Kanto and Lashina murder a human woman, their actions setting off a chain of escalating threats. As the heroes investigate, Grail arrives seeking a powerful artifact held by Power Ring, unleashing the terrifying Anti-Monitor—while Mister Miracle, barely escaping Darkseid’s grasp, stumbles into the path of the assassins’ true target, Myrina Black.

In "The Darkseid War, Chapter Two: The New God," Superman and Lex Luthor land on Apokolips under Lena Luthor’s orders, drawing the immediate attention of Darkseid. Meanwhile, Wonder Woman battles Grail on Earth before Metron whisking the Justice League to the Rock of Eternity, where they confront the enigmatic Metron—and Batman takes his seat, becoming something more than human.

In "The Darkseid War, Chapter Three: Taken," Superman and Lex Luthor struggle to survive Apokolips' brutal hellscape as the Justice League regroups at the Rock of Eternity. Mister Miracle joins the team, and while Batman and Green Lantern search for answers about the Anti-Monitor, the rest of the League returns to Earth—only to arrive in the midst of a cosmic clash between Darkseid and an ancient, unseen threat.

In "The Darkseid War, Chapter Four: The Death of Darkseid," the fate of the New God hangs in the balance as the Anti Monitor clashes with Darkseid, leaving the Justice League powerless to intervene. With the tide turning, Darkseid summons the Black Racer—only for the angel of death to bond with the Flash, shifting the battle's course in a moment that redefines the war's final chapter.

In the wake of Darkseid’s fall, the survivors grapple with the shifting tide of power: the Flash struggles under the weight of the Black Racer’s burden, Batman turns toward Gotham’s quiet streets, and Shazam hears the distant call of the New Gods. Meanwhile, Superman leaves Luthor behind on Apokolips, where he’s drawn into a destiny that awakens the long-forgotten Omega Effect.

In "The Darkseid War: Flash," Barry Allen confronts a cosmic threat tied to the Black Racer, uncovering a chilling truth: the entity’s power must be anchored to a mortal to prevent universal death. As the weight of that responsibility settles, Flash faces a choice that could redefine his role in the battle against Darkseid’s conquest.

In "The Darkseid War: Superman – God of Steel," Superman returns to Metropolis transformed—powerful, driven by Apokolips, and distant from his former self. As he battles an alien invader on his way home, a flicker of his old conscience stirs when he finally notices the strange weapon the alien left behind.

In the aftermath of devastating losses, Big Barda arrives to bolster the defense against the Apokaliptian gods, her presence reigniting a spark with Scot that stirs something deep in Steve Trevor. As he shares a quiet moment with Diana, Superman’s sudden arrival shifts the tension. Meanwhile, Grail’s fate takes a dark turn when she claims the Anti-Life Equation from the Anti-Monitor.

In "The Darkseid War, Chapter Seven: Gods of Justice," Wonder Woman works to restore Superman’s clarity just as Batman and Green Lantern close in, while Cyborg’s team faces unexpected challenges in their mission to free Ultraman and Superwoman. As tensions rise, Grail shares a troubling secret with her mother—her intentions toward Steve Trevor.

In "The Darkseid War, Chapter Eight: Crime Pays," the Justice League joins forces with the Crime Syndicate in a desperate stand against Mobius. As Ultraman falls and Lex Luthor arrives on the scene, Superwoman’s labor begins—just as Grail silently takes Steve Trevor from the chaos, her motives still hidden.

In "The Darkseid War, Chapter Ten: Power Mad," Superman and Luthor clash in a brutal stand against the enigmatic Mobius, while Superwoman faces a pivotal moment as she gives birth to her son. With Grail returning, her new weapon—Steve Trevor—now fully under her command, the tide of the battle shifts in unpredictable ways.

In the explosive finale of *The Darkseid War*, the Justice League faces their greatest trial as Grail and the possessed Steve Trevor unleash the full force of the Anti-Life Equation. With the fate of the universe hanging in the balance, desperate choices are made, secrets are revealed, and the line between hero and villain dissolves in the heat of battle.
