Click Here For A Spoiler J'onn is from the "current" earth. Black Adam from "Earth-S", the Ray from "Earth-X", Lady Quark from whatever Earth she is from, Kara from "Earth-2" and Nightshade from "Earth-C." We can maybe assume that Breach may be from the Wildstorm Earth.
Going from there Alexander's machine is not meant to mindwipe the heroes at all. That's just the pretense he is using for the Society. He is setting it up to bring back the multiverse.

Click Here For A SpoilerMaybe we can assume that there are also places in the tower for EP SB and Alexandr Luthor too so that their earths (Earth-Prime and Earth-3 are included?

AAARGH!!! A crashed plane means comics shipments to Melbourne are delayed indefinitely? I hope no-one was hurt...
But... Does any naughty individual know where I can download a copy before I buy mine whenever they arrive? I have both covers on my order but no way to buy the bloody things...

A minor point, but this issue answered a question I've had, Andrew Vinson, Power Girl's pre-Crisis love interest, does not exist post-Crisis.

This is purely speculation on my part, but I thought I'd throw it out there:
Click Here For A SpoilerIC#3 cuts from Animal Man borrowing the powers of an animal that "shoots lightning from its face" to a shot of Wally West's baby twins. Could his children possibly be Garth and Ayla? I kinda doubt it, but still...

Okay, I'm not saying I condone rampant filesharing of whatever comes into your head... but I will say a huge thankyou to a super-special Legion Worlder for arranging... something. (Look away, DC Execs! Or at least believe me when I say I'll still be picking up the issue when it finally arrives in non-digital format... ) Comments to follow once I investigate that spiffy Click Here For A Spoiler tag... Thanks so much to They-Know-Who!
PS I agree with Scott when he says that the story seemed to suffer a lack of self-containment. (They obviously need to put Geoff Johns in a Wildfire suit. He can still wear a beret if he wants.)

I hope there's some sort of reset or something ahead. A DCU without Atlantis or Themyscira is much more boring than with them. Though their destruction/migration would explain the lack of those city-states in the 30th/31st century...
I'd prefer their fate remain a mystery to us Legion readers, since I want to read stories using those two fictional settings in 'current' DCU titles.

Well, after all my thoughts about how this was a series pandering to Pre-Crisis fans and that I really didn't care for a lot of what was going on, then I got to the end.
Click Here For A SpoilerI love Superboy-Prime as a vicious little SOB. I love the way that the Earth-2 SuperGrampa is being manipulated somehow. I love the way that it seems that 'our' Earth will be redeemed as being not so bad as at least we think a bit. After all, "Evil will always triumph over Good, because Good is Dumb." Or they'll just bring the bloody Multiverse back. Whatever. I barely read core DCU titles these days anyway...
Edited to change SuperDoofus to SuperGrampa, which I think far more apt...

Well, things are interesting enough but there is one thing I just cannot suspend disbelief enough to accept:
WHY are Mal and Karen (Herald & Bumblebee) with Donna Troy's crew in space? I *love* these guys, but come ON-- it's ludicrous they would be picked for this mission, whatever it is. Their only action in the past 5-plus YEARS has been in the recent Dr. Light battle in TT and the JLA/Titans mini.
This had BETTER be a springboard to bigger and better things for them, and NOT (as I fear) a lame-ass way to off them.

I fear you are correct Lasher. I think this will be the end of those two.

There had better be light at the end of the tunnel with this series.
Click Here For A SpoilerI will be more than a little annoyed if Alexander Luthor and Superboy end up as whackos. Alex was my favorite new character in the original Crisis, and I would hate to see him as this "evil" mastermind.
