"This is Everything.
This is Me.
These are My Protectors.
The Justice League.
The Champions of a New Heroic Age.
Earth.
The Foundation Stone of a Monumental Cosmic Mega-Structure made of parallel Universes and Parallel Worlds, all vibrating at different frequencies.
A Multiverse.
And when The Multiverse is on the verge of destruction, when the skies drip RED as the barriers between parallel universes BLEED...
...when Earth's GREATEST HEROES rise up together, willing to sacrifice everything they have in defence of all the hold dear...
...that War is called A CRISIS.
The First Crisis brought Death to nearly all of Creation.
One lone Universe was spared.
And so begins the FINAL Chapter in the saga of The Multiple Earths.
A Second Crisis Witnessed the violent resurrection of 52 New Parallel Universes.
The Final Crisis.
Even a thousand years from now, they will gave into the sky to see him.
The Last Son of The Planet Krypton.
He always told me to call him Clark... Didn't he?
When The Dawn came across existence there was LIGHT.
But as soon as there was Light --
--there was Shadow.
There was Good
And Evil.
She is PEACE and She is WAR.
She is Still Beautiful.
Test Pilot Half Jordan was chosen by a dying alien to represent his Space Sector in a Cosmic Police Force called The Green Lantern Corps.
He once told me that had he not received his Power Ring, he would have gotten himself killed several times over. I always wondered if he was BRAGGING --
-- or CONFESSING?
I... KNOW Hal Jordan.
I am no longer Everything.
I am a shaft of LIGHT split through a PRISM.
As I enter into a world of immense primary energies,
I witness The Eternal Spirit
of VENGEANCE Itself.
God's WRATH.
The SPECTRE.
Bound to a Human Soil, it will battle The Forces of Chaos for all Eternity.
But today that Soul is BLIND.
That Soul believes The Spectre
to be suited for petty vindication.
It has been only
JUDGEMENT and EXECUTION.
One sinner at a time.
Detective Crispus Allen needs to understand
there's much MORE to His Existence
than TWISTED PUNISHMENT.
In times of Crisis,
he is capable of much more.
No one looks up to see HIM in The Sky --
--because he has yet to
rise UP INTO The Sky.
He has not found The GOOD
within What He's Become.
So I PRAY that someone does.
And I hope to God someone ANSWERS My Prayers.
MY Prayers.
I am....
SOMEBODY.
The LIGHT.
The SHADOW.
I'm The Only One
Who Can See
The SHADOW.
This Gigantic SHADOW cast across The Multiverse.
Falling over EVERYTHING.
I'm The Only One Who Knows
There was A WAR in Heaven.
And Evil WON.
The MULTIVERSE Takes
a SINGLE BREATH....
Like a RUNNER Poised
on The LINE...
And it's MY Breath.
There is A SOUND.
A Sound like The CRACK OF DOOM.
Like a STARTER'S PISTOL....
And This is ME.
And NOW I Remember.
KRA-KKOOOMM
JAY!
WALLY
EVERYONE!
RUN!
