Dark Crisis (Comic Book)	comment	Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths (formerly Dark Crisis) is a 2022 DC Comics Crisis Crossover and a major story arc in the DC Infinite Frontier line, written by Joshua Williamson. 30 years after The Death of Superman hit shelves, has DC decided to commemorate that milestone in a big way — with a story starting with the death of the entire Justice League.The Great Darkness, a threat to the entire multiverse, is rising — leading to the members of the Justice League and the Justice League Incarnate joining forces to halt its advance. When they find the source, they only discover a multiversal graveyard and find that Pariah, the survivor from Crisis on Infinite Earths, has rebuilt the Antimatter Chamber to let the Great Darkness in, out of the belief that this can save the original multiverse.The Justice League fight off Pariah and an army of their enemies controlled by the Great Darkness, and though they destroy the Antimatter Chamber, Pariah unleashes waves of energy. In a flash, Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Emerald Knight, Hawkgirl, Black Canary, Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter, and Zatanna, along with all their allies in the Justice League Incarnate, are no more. Black Adam only narrowly escapes by the skin of his teeth to warn the world.A danger like no other is coming. The greatest heroes in the Multiverse have fallen... And for once, it's up to everyone else to save the day. But is this truly the end of the Justice League as we once knew them?Comics involved in Dark Crisis:

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_171ef47c	comment	Not-So-Harmless Villain: Just as the event spotlights the lower echelon superheroes, so to does it bring the lesser villains into focus. The Secret Society (led by Deathstroke, who usually plays the role of mercenary) resultantly eschews big names like Lex Luthor or Joker in favor of B and C-Listers like Hyena or Firefly, but they're still treated as big deals and the story emphasizes that â€” silly costumes or not â€” these are dangerous criminals willing to do awful things, up to and including murdering children. And this is driven home when Deathstroke's Secret Society and Luthor's Legion of Doom clashâ€¦ and it's a Curb-Stomp Battle in the former's favor, in total defiance of Popularity Power.

He points out that some members are young (Dr. Light), untrustworthy (Harley and Killer Frost) and that the world needs capable protectors, which is not the case. He ends by saying that Jon has very little experience being a hero and no experience in being a leader and Nightwing is the one who should lead a New Justice League. However, after the utter disaster that was Slade's attack on Titans Academy, Black Adam immediately renounces his endorsement of Nightwing, expressing his disappointment in Grayson's handling of the entire situation and places the blame of the tragedy squarely on his shoulders.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_2a6bf668	comment	Inadequate Inheritor: Jon towards the Superman mantle. Unlike Clark, who'd everyone would happily lay down their lives to protect the world by his side, very few people side with Jon when he calls for a new Justice League. In fact, Black Adam tells him that he shouldn't be the one to make the charge, it should be Nightwing. A team-wide example comes in the form of Jon's initial attempt to create a new Justice League, which completely falls apart by Issue 3 as the Secret Society's Open Season on all surviving superheroes starts kicking into high gear. Black Adam and Damian Wayne both quit the team, while the remaining members all decide to retreat back to their respective cities to defend their loved ones in the worst case scenario they are targeted as well. This leaves Jon as the only "founding" member of the roster who is still active.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_37fcf16	comment	Death Is Cheap: The Justice League, who disappear in a similar manner to what happened with Barry Allen earlier in Infinite Frontier, but are actually, unbeknownst to the wider world, just trapped in "paradise worlds" created by Pariah. Nonetheless, the team being out of commission is an important plot point for the story. This is also deconstructed in-universe by showing a whole variety of reactions to their deaths from both superheroes and the public ranging from grief to wondering if they'll come back to doubting they're really dead to even a crazy few who are glad they're gone. On the whole, it's driven home that whether or not the League stays dead is irrelevant; what matters is that they're not present at the moment, and things are going to go down because of it. Possibly subverted with Green Arrow, the only Leaguer not killed by Pariah, but rather Doomsday. In Road to Dark Crisis, this is actually discussed between Nightwing and Jon as Nightwing points out how both Superman and Batman both died and somehow came back, thus they shouldn't think things wouldn't be the same here.

Furious that the League refuses to stoop down to murder, Black Adam pulls a Faceâ€“Heel Turn and rejoins the Legion of Doom. Issue #4 ends with the rebirth of the actual Multiverse, overwhelming the 52 created since the Infinite Crisis. The Deadly Green has a Swamp Thing-powered Jon Kent tear part of Pariah's machine out of a pillar of darkness, clarifying that he has been using it all along, not the other way around. Issue #6 concludes with Pariah dead but his army of supervillains still possessed because his power transferred over to Slade Wilson, who has both Nightwing and Ravager in his clutches. In The Dark Army, Dr. Multiverse looks at Damian's team and sees various multiversal versions of our heroes... except Damian, who all of them is wearing the same Batman costume.

But when Nightwing fails to protect Titans Academy for the second time in a row, Black Adam decides to pull rank and establish himself as leader with the intention of whipping every other hero into shape.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_5541da8c	comment	Lotus-Eater Machine: As previously established, this is where Pariah put Barry Allen — an Earth in Multiverse-2 designed to be his perfect world. Worlds Without a Justice League reveals he's done the same with the "essences" of the other Leaguers, placing them on worlds based on their "innermost hopes". Issue 3 has Hal realize that these worlds are actually meant to be weapons. Barry Allen gets a world where his mother is still alive, he gets to actually raise his kids properly and Wally is still his partner. The world is very much the Silver Age, complete with cheesy jokes and puns. Ace West is seemingly integrated into Barry's world when he and Wally try to rescue Barry. In Ace's world, Wally is happily retired, having handed the reins over to Ace, who is now a superhero called Burst, working alongside Irey and Jai West, while being in a relationship with Emiko Queen. His father Daniel West is also alive and supportive of his superhero career. Clark Kent's world is one where the Kents still have their secret identities, Jon never left with Jor-El, and Clark got to raise his son until he was 18. While he still clashes with Jon, he accepts that as being part of parenting, and says he wouldn't trade a second of it. Arthur Curry's world sees Thomas Curry still alive, and married to Atlanna. Jackson is still his successor as Aquaman and his daughter Andy grows into a happy adult and is dating Jess Chambers. However, Arthur knows this world is fake. John Stewart's world is an entire sector of space guarded by him and his own Green Lantern Corps, joined by Kyle Rayner, Jason Todd, and Natasha Irons. Hal Jordan ends up dropping into this world after he, the real Kyle and Jo confront Pariah.

Pariah's plan ends up removing that and leading to the rebirth of the original Multiverse. The Swamp Things suggest that the Great Darkness isn't good nor evil, it's just a force of nature and that whatever is out there is either not the Great Darkness or the Great Darkness is being manipulated. Issue #5 and the Dark Green one-shot confirms that, but they can't figure out what's going on. In The Dark Army, it's revealed that the Monitor created the Kimiyo Hoshi Dr. Light Big Bang reveals what the unknown Earths 24, 27, 28, 46, and 49 of the New 52 multiverse are: Earth-24 — DC Comics Bombshells Earth-27 — Jurassic League Earth-28 — DC Mech Earth-46 — Batman: The Gargoyle of Gotham, which wasn't a real comic book until September 2023. Earth-49 — Injustice Big Bang revealing the numbers of various established universes outside of the original New 52, after the infinite multiverse is restored.

After defeating Sinestro, Jace realizes he was in the wrong for trying to stay out of the Crisis and immediately rides off to the Hall of Justice to fight in the Final Battle to avert this trope.

In addition to wanting Tim Drake, Bart Allen and Conner Kent to be like how they were in the 1990s, he has an illusion of Batman tell Tim that his relationship with his boyfriend Bernard is "just a phase" and that he's supposed to be with Stephanie Brown, plus he later rants about the new characters he doesn't care about and claims shouldn't exist, who all happen to be some kind of minority (the characters shown in the relevant panel include the lesbian Batwoman Katherine Kane, the non-binary Kid Quick, the African-American Batman Jace Fox and the Golden Age Green Lantern Alan Scott, who at the time was recently established to be gay like his son Obsidian and his Earth 2 counterpart). And this is without bringing up the flagrantly misogynist streak he demonstrates towards Cassie Sandsmark.

This is so Cassie needs to resort to other means, but Wally in particular would easily be able to track Bart down since he can easily travel between universes and across time. However, strangely enough, Wally being a jerk wasn't even necessary, since not only is four speedsters for one city complete overkill, but in the pages of The Flash, Wally and the family travel the multiverse to find Barry Allen.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_9c8701b5	comment	A Day in the Limelight: The major selling point of the event. With the main Justice League seemingly dead, the Legacy Characters, allies, and sidekicks all take charge in saving the world: Nightwing is the big one. While in prior major event stories he carried a supporting role at best (his most notable ones being as a secondary character in Infinite Crisis, and the Distressed Dude in Forever Evil), pre-release materials paint him as The Hero of the entire story, with the entire hero community falling behind him in way of the Justice League's death. On the other end of the spectrum, when all hope seems lost, who all arrive to aid our heroes but the Justice Society, the heroes before the League. For the villains, Deathstroke primarily has been used as a Punch-Clock Villain acting in subordination to major Big Bads, but here takes the central role in leading the villainous forces as Nightwing's Arch-Enemy.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_b53077b3	comment	Take That!: Dark Crisis: Young Justice #2 is essentially an extended potshot towards those who want the original Young Justice to return to the status quo from the '90s, refusing to let them grow as characters or shoehorning them into roles that don't fit them, such as Bart becoming the Flash. This is especially apparent when "Batman" tells Tim that dating Bernard is "just a phase". World Without a Justice League: Superman is about Clark having his ideal life... which just happens to be the opposite of the status quo shifts introduced in Brian Michael Bendis' run: namely, that Clark got to see Jon actually grow up rather than miss it (the story explores Jon's life from age 12 to 18, which is what Clark missed in Bendis' run) and the Kents still operating with secret identities.

Except for one member, who turned out to be Black Adam. Promotional material states that a major hero dies in Issue 1, and that this event incites the rest of the main story. This ends up being Beast Boyâ€¦ except he doesn't actually die. Issue #4 suggests that Beast Boy's current state is him thinking he should be dead. The solicitation for issue #5 implies a Justice Leaguer will have to make a Heroic Sacrifice to ensure the rest of the League's return to Earth-0. Issue #5 has the assembled heroes realise that because Green Arrow actually died at Doomsday's hands prior to being placed in Pariah's machine, he won't be able to return home with the rest of the group. Ollie outright tells the other heroes that stopping Pariah is more important than trying to find a way to save him.

This is despite the fact that Bratgirl was confirmed to be an orphan. Jason Todd tells Roy Harper that he "remembers" and will help him find Roy's daughter Lian. This makes absolutely no sense on two regards. The first being that Jason only briefly heard of Lian's existence once in New Teen Titans (and if that's canon, it muddles things even worse because Jason was an adolescent and Roy was pushing 20 in that story). The second being that Lian didn't exist and was never mentioned at all during Red Hood and the Outlaws or in any of the post-Flashpoint comics Roy and Jason were both in. So the fact that he would have an idea or care about Lian at all makes no sense. The fourth issue states the Multiverse has been reborn as infinite Earths again, despite that throughout the Infinite Frontier titles it was outright stated that the infinite worlds were already back. Suicide Squad especially had Amanda Waller namedrop worlds like Earth-420 in regards to the villains she's captured.

Swamp Thing would later hypothesize that the Great Darkness as he knew it wasn't actively malevolent and thus something must've corrupted it, with that being confirmed to be Pariah. Which essentially contradicts the reveal about the Great Darkness being the driving force for the other crisis events if Pariah only recently corrupted it with his madness. At the start of Justice League #75 (which leads directly into the event), John Stewart is shown on Oa and apparently still going by the Green Lantern name despite having access to the Godstorm. The actual Green Lantern run where John absorbed the Godstorm ended with him adopting the new identity of the Emerald Knight after being presumed dead by the other Green Lanterns and heading into the dark sectors of space, leaving his presence on Oa and apparent return to the Corps here unexplained. Similarly, issue 2 ends with Hal and Jo rescuing and recruiting Kyle Rayner back into the Corps, who include Arisia (who was shown dead at the end of the aforementioned series) and Jessica Cruz (who was last seen as a Sinestro Corps member in the same series).

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_e46b6d66	comment	Ragtag Band of Misfits: Issue 1 introduces a new Justice League, comprised of Superman (Jon Kent), Supergirl, Robin (Damian Wayne), Aquaman (Jackson Hyde), Frankenstein's Monster, Blue Beetle (both Ted Kord and Jaime Reyes), Booster Gold, Harley Quinn and Dr. Light (Kimiyo Hoshi). Jon asked everyone and these are the only people who said yes. Black Adam sees the team as a lost cause. In The Dark Army, Damian recruits Power Girl, the aforementioned Kimiyo Hoshi, Red Canary and Sideways to hunt for a way to stop the Darkness.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_e50987a9	comment	Reconstruction: Of more minor superheroes and supervillains that don't get editorial pushes, shunting all the A-Listers aside so that the lesser knowns, legacy characters, sidekicks, and supporting casts can get the limelight and show that they're just as awesome and important as characters like Batman or Joker.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_e52a0409	comment	Calling the Old Man Out: Ravager tries to assassinate Slade in his headquarters, and when foiled she goes on a blistering "The Reason You Suck" Speech calling him out for never learning his lesson and blaming everyone else for his own sins.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_e5421161	comment	Expy: Mickey Mxyzptlk is this towards Superboy-Prime. Both are young adults with god-like power who believes that their time period was the best and that everything and everyone after them has ruined everything and that their time to shine was robbed by them. However, while Prime was conned by Alexander Luthor and the Golden Age Superman's worry over Lois Lane-Kent and held on for years to that anger afterwards, Mickey is just a Manchild acting up because he didn't get his way.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_e83f211c	type	O.O.C. Is Serious Business
Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_e83f211c	comment	O.O.C. Is Serious Business: One of the signs that the Justice League realize that something's wrong is that Darkseid is suddenly fighting like a brute, which is a far cry from his usual style of combat. What tips Tim off that he and Young Justice aren't actually in their past is that Bruce randomly displays homophobia when Tim brings up dating Bernard, the polar opposite of how the real Bruce reacted.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_eb81c601	comment	Big Damn Heroes: Jon saves Nightwing from being shot by Deathstroke by literally hurling himself between the two; for obvious reasons, Deathstroke's bullet does nothing to him. When Barry is beating the shit out of Wally thanks to Pariah's world making Barry think Wally is Eobard Thawne, Linda Park (who recently gained superspeed) shows up to smack some sense into Barry and save her husband. Before Doomsday can land the killing blow on Jon, Clark arrives to block his punch, allowing father and son to drop him. Soon after, both the Justice League and the Green Lantern Corps arrive to help our heroes.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_ec8290b6	comment	Snap Back: Black Adam returns to the cape-less costume he's worn before the New 52, when he was an anti-hero (at best) not afraid to side with villains. This coincides with him disavowing Jon's Justice League.

Dark Crisis (Comic Book) / int_fb8b5014	comment	Talking to Themself: The true nature of Pariah's conversations with the Great Darkness is that he is simply talking to himself. Once his role in the crisis is clarified, this becomes more obvious, with him whispering to someone who clearly does not exist. When Yara Flor uses the Lasso of Truth on him, the voice apparently is silenced, clarifying that it was only in his own head.

That and he's really just Pariah's pawn.
