Wonder Woman – War-Torn | Comics
As she dealt with the menace of First Born, Diana has allowed her Amazonian "brothers" who used to work for Hephaestus into Themyscira. This worries her sisters and led many of them to question her judgment, most prominently by Derinoe, who believes that Diana is not a worthy heir of Hippolyta and thus, attempts to replace her with a worthy one. Before she could defend her actions, Wonder Woman is called by Justice League for an emergency. It appears that the entire populace of a village has vanished and during her investigation, she met with Swamp Thing and attacked him for suspecting him responsible but then talked down by Aquaman. She admits that she is troubled with her duty as a Queen, a member of Justice League and now as the God of War!

A part of being Pantheon of Olympians and being involved in the affairs of her brothers have kept her so busy that she barely has time for her. When returned to Paradise Island, Diana is summoned by the council of Amazons to choose between her duties as a Queen or a savior of humanity. Meanwhile, Derinoe convinces her daughter to give up her own child to a powerful sorceress for a ritual that will forge the perfect Amazon from clay. Therefore, young Donna Troy is born to be a successor of Hippolyta's throne by defeating Wonder Woman. But before they could even face each other in battle, Derinoe's hatred leads Troy to do something that will infuriate the Amazon Queen. Also, an unexpected heart-breaking bad news waits for Diana that will torn her forever.

Superman – Doomed | Comics

As Superman started dating Wonder Woman now (The Villain's Journey), the media has already dubbed them as the “Power Couple” of the world. Following their recent battle with Kryptonian despot Dru-Zod and his follower Faora that ended up in a massive nuclear blast, both of them head off to heal themselves and a mysterious being of unimaginable brute force unleashes its nonsensical murdering rampage by killing whomever it faces in somewhere else.

Since its kill count is growing rapidly and anyone sent to the zone is dying from radiation exposure it exerts, the military calls up for Superman's help. Meanwhile, reporter Lois Lane goes to Smallville for investigating a case of citizens falling into a sudden coma like state. The Justice League finds out that the murderous being known as Doomsday is actually seeking Superman and Lex Luthor suggests he can save the planet by taking the monster along with him out of the world.

Superman – Doomed | Comics

Agreeing to this, Superman faces Doomsday in a deadly battle for one last time where he eventually kills him using sheer force. However, in doing so by ripping the creature in half, he also absorbs all of the exposure of toxic radiation by inhaling it all that the beast had released upon dying and he then slowly started to change like a Doomsday-like being. Not only he changed in the outside, Clark has totally lost his mild-mannered attitude and becomes more and more aggressive.

Worried for Clark’s well being and a sudden change of behavior, Diana sought their mutual friend Batman out for help and together, they visit the Phantom Zone for answers. Seeing his grotesque appearance and growing bestial nature, Superman surrenders himself to the authorities but even they deemed it impossible to contain him at one point when he becomes the "SuperDoom" creature. A recent attack from Metallo renders him weak, so Wonder Woman took him to outer space to figure a way out.

As Superman turns into a hulking being resembled to Doomsday, his cousin and newest Red Lantern member Supergirl and close friend Steel also came for aid while Brainiac keeps playing with the situation from behind the scene like a mastermind. When he finally shows up with Cyborg Superman and his armada to invade Earth, it appears that he has been controlling Lois Lane all along.

Forever Evil | Comics

When a paradox of timeline is created by The Flash known as "Flashpoint" that changed the entire landscape of reality and the weakened barrier of the Multiverse allowed Darkseid of Apokolips to came to invade Earth with his Parademon army (Justice League – Origin), only to be halted by the super-heroes of the world, who later formed the Justice League. The impact of that battle created a rift in dimension barriers and The Outsider from Earth 3 managed to enter the reality of Prime Earth.

All of the above led to "Trinity War", which was jump-started by the mysterious Pandora in her attempt to open the Pandora's Box by Superman and the aftermath of which revealed the significance of all these happenings. There was a fight of the all three teams of the Justice Leagues regarding the fate of Pandora's Box, which led the Crime Syndicate consisting Atomica, Deathstorm, Grid, Johnny Quick, Owlman, Power Ring, Superwoman and Ultraman from Earth 3 to come to this world and take over.

Forever Evil | Comics

After imprisoning the Justice League inside the Firestorm Matrix and then freeing all super-villains from their captivity in Iron Heights and Belle Reve Penitentiary, the Syndicate offered them to join their cause or perish otherwise. Upon denying and having doubt on their authenticity, a second-string villain Monocle was executed. They even managed to capture the vigilante hero Nightwing and revealed his secret identity to the world as Dick Grayson. At this shocking revelation, Batgirl and the rest of the members of Teen Titans are very surprised.

As Lex Luthor got out of prison recently, he was heading to LexCorp and meets Ultraman, whom he thought Superman at first, but he quickly dismisses the idea when he witnessed him grinding Kryptonite and snorting it. Ultraman also blocked the sun to create an eclipse and Luthor decides to stop them since there is no Justice League to do so. He wakes up his unfinished experimental Superman clone named Subject B-Zero to assist him in doing so while he suits up in his Warsuit.

Batman and Catwoman survived the initial onslaught of the Crime Syndicate and brought the remains of Victor Stone's body to S.T.A.R. Labs. Superwoman informs Ultraman about Owlman's plan to betray them, whereas she holds one more secret of her own. Eventually Luthor finds Black Adam, Black Manta, Captain Cold, Deathstroke and Sinestro to form his Injustice League to save the day from greater evil!
