Domesday

Gotham City is burning, and Superman), spurned by his people in favour of Batman), intends to watch his enemies faces while their world falls down around them. Angrily, Batman tries to convince him to work on the side of good, for once, reminding that if there is nobody left alive from this disaster, there will be nobody to *worship* him as before. Suddenly, a voice rings out over the city, warning that this doom was brought upon themselves. They had proved themselves unworthy. Sure that the others will die, Superman saves himself, escaping the flames and earthquakes that consume them. Even as he is assured of his victory and survival, an colossal hand closes around him and crushes him in its fist. Telos) looks down on the ruins of his domed city and knows that Brainiac) was wrong to bring them there. He will begin again, and put things right.

Elsewhere on the planet Telos, heroes from Earth 2 are dropped suddenly onto the surface, as if from nowhere. Though they are confused, they are somewhat *relieved*, as they were all about to be killed by Darkseid)'s Omega Beams. Unfortunately, their survival means they surely lost everyone *else* they cared about, because they *failed* to stop Darkseid. While *some* people got off the planet alive, it is uncertain whether the convoy will make it to safety. The assembled are surprised when Yolanda Montez) suddenly crawls out from the Earth, happy to be alive. She had *felt* the deaths of everyone who died, as Avatar of The Red, but she feels *fortunate* that *she* was fiven a second chance. Though they have no idea where they are, Alan Scott) is certain that their home world is gone, as he can no longer feel The Green.

Suddenly, a metallic fluid begins rising up from the ground, encircling them, and shooting up into the sky around them. They are then visited by Telos, who demands to know why and how they are on his planet *without* their city. They explain that their city - and planet - were surely destroyed by Darkseid, and he deems this *unacceptable*. He had tried to collect them at the last possible moment, to avoid courting disaster by taking them too early - but clearly he miscalculated. The refugees are angry that he took them, but he reminds that they would be *dead* otherwise. Furthermore, they are the *last* of all the worlds that he intends to collect here. This must be the signal that his master had told him would one day come. It is the time to put all of the worlds in opposition to one another, to determine which will be replanted in the universe of worlds - and which will *perish*.

He shows the refugees the other worlds they will soon face, and they demand to have those people freed. He responds that he *will* free them - but only to fight for their existence until only *one* reality remains. He predicts, though, that *they* will not survive.

Telos addresses every world on the planet's surface and explains that it was he who brought this convergence upon them. The time for judgment is near, and only *one* city will survive; the strongest. As the planet they walk on, he has tended to their every need - but now the domes separating them will fall, and their champions must rise. Those champions will fight for a new world where their old worlds are dead. He has the power to grant *one* city a future. And the victor will be decided by *competition*. If any city chooses *not* to fight, it will be destroyed. If any city *disobeys*, it will be destroyed. If any city tries to *avoid* the fight, *all* of its citizens will pay for it.

The heroes of Earth 2 assure him that nobody will fight. This cannot be what Brainiac's plan was. Telos responds that the champions will fight to defend their people, it is that simple. It is *destiny*, and it has *already* begun.
