Zero Hour: Crisis in Time #[nn]

In a timeline unraveling from the end backward, the universe begins to vanish—starting with the distant future, where the Time Trapper is attacked by an unseen force. In the present, a vibrant Batgirl appears, disoriented and unaware of Robin’s identity, while the Linear Men race to prevent the collapse, sending desperate warnings to the Flash in the 64th century and Green Lantern in 5700 AD. As Batman and Superman rally the heroes, chaos erupts: Hawkman fractures into countless versions of himself, and Waverider arrives with Wally West’s empty Flash suit—just as Extant overpowers the last of the Linear Men at Vanishing Point.

In "Zero Hour [Part 2]," the Justice Society of America pushes deep into Vanishing Point, where Hawkman and Hawkgirl are pulled toward a convergence of every Hawkman across time. As the remnants of the JSA and the wider superhero community face escalating time anomalies, Waverider confronts Extant—only to discover a chilling resemblance between them that hints at a deeper, shared origin.

In the final act of *Zero Hour: Crisis in Time*, the remnants of the Justice Society of America make their farewell as Alan Scott passes his Green Lantern ring to Kyle Rayner. With time unraveling and the Team Titans converging on Vanishing Point, Extant consumes Waverider—only for a mysterious figure to appear, snatch the ring, and destroy it before vanishing into the chaos.

In the final chapter of the crisis, as Parallax—revealed to be Hal Jordan—wields the power to erase all of history and reshape reality, the remaining heroes stand at the edge of oblivion. With Jay Garrick's desperate call to the Spectre echoing across time, a last stand looms between the will to rebuild and the desire to destroy.

In the final moments of temporal collapse, a fractured team of heroes—Triumph, Warrior, Batgirl, Waverider, and others—rally against the corrupted Hal Jordan, now a force of destruction. As Parallax's grip on time weakens, they face a desperate choice: sacrifice one to restore all. With the Spectre’s arrival looming, the fate of reality rests on a single, unthinkable act.
