• 11:37 AM EST: The Midnighter executes the last at-large terrorist on Earth on live television. The Engineer continues work on cracking her predecessor’s Oasis program to bring an endless bounty to the Earth. Apollo and Swift seed barren land at hyper-speed as Jenny Quantum manipulates the probability of rain clouds appearing above them. And the Planetary organization works through Jack Hawksmoor’s city-manipulating abilities to hold simultaneous discussions with the three remaining American holdout cities – Millenium, Neopolis and Indigo – on including them in the spread of their revolutionary uncovered arcano-technology.
• Rulers of the world in all but name, the Authority works alongside the assorted metahumans of Earth-5 to spread peace, technological progress and freedom from tyranny across a largely grateful Earth, in spite of the contempt of ‘traditionalistic’ heroes such as Tom Strong.
• But as the Doctor peals back the layers of reality in his own private magical experiments, he unwittingly contaminates the very firmament of the Bleed surrounding his universe, giving rise to a malignant new reality that threatens to consume his world…and terrifyingly powerful champions who will do anything to ensure their home’s survival.
• Superman. Batman. Wonder Woman. Green Lantern, Vixen, Ozymandias, Cyborg, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Hawkwoman, Doctor Manhattan. The Authority have neutralized super-terror troops, alternate reality armies, rogue heroes, the Earth itself, and the very God that created humanity. But will even they be enough against these strange new figures?
• The Justice Lords say no!

Plotted by EXCITER
Written by JOSS WHEDON
Art by MIKE MIGNOLA
“UNECCESSARY ROUGHNESS”
Multi-sport athletes are rare at the highest levels. Lawrence Crock was perhaps the rarest of them all. Major League Baseball. The National Football League. The Professional Golfer's Association. Crock was in each of them and more. He might have gone down in history as the greatest professional athlete of all time if not for one problem: he was a completely amoral sociopath. His career was plagued with drug, animal, and spousal abuse, infidelity, and deflated balls, to name just a few of his scandals, and he was kicked out of every organization he competed in. What else to do but turn to a life of crime? As lieutenant to Bane, the leader of the Santa Priscan Cartel, the "Sportsmaster" would eventually come into conflict with the daughters he neglected and mistreated - Jade and Artemis, now calling themselves Cheshire and Tigress. The conflict would be fatal for Lawrence (see issue #6)... but it wouldn't be the end of his story! Why did the necromancer Anton Arcane resurrect the Sportsmaster and draft him onto his fantasy team of undead athletes? And why is Arcane targeting the owners of major sports franchises for assassination? Can the opposing team of his daughters, who joined the anarchist V after the traumatic experience of slaying their own father, and the original Daredevil uncover the truth?

He gave his enemies second chances, and they used them to butcher. He loved his wife, his family, his friends, and he lost them all. And he won’t lose anymore.
• Flying faster and farther than ever before, he shatters the boundaries of space and time, of the Multiverse and the places beyond, until he batters down the walls of Heaven itself to take back what he’s lost.
• …and as the vision clears, the Phantom Stranger tells Superman what he must do. Broken by the losses of his mission, this Kal-El of another universe has seized the spirits of his loved ones, and in disturbing the boundaries of the afterlife, is wreaking havoc on his native Earth-18.
• To rescue an entire universe, Superman must convince his other self to return his loved ones to the shores of the next world – and if he cannot, stop him and do it himself. But how far is Superman willing to go for a mission he’s not sure he believes in?

He's been kidnapping children in an attempt to regain his youth ever since and his methods have gradually become more twisted! Batman seems particularly upset about all of this, as an orphan Pan was his hero and Never Land the place where nightmares didn't exist!
