There was immense pressure on the team in charge of continuing the story. Who do you cast in the iconic villain roles? How do you construct a film to please comic readers but also make sure it is enjoyable to kids who will ultimately buy the toys? Will they give Sean Young another chance to have a starring role? It is clear, she would stop at nothing to have another chance to be a part of this universe....

In a ship outside of time and space the Monitor sits and observes. A young girl is in distress in her space pod. The Monitor intervenes even though he is not supposed to. He has also been collecting heroes to help stave off the universe’s impending doom. Perhaps this Kryptonian, nearly the last of her kind, can play a role in the salvation of the universe.

It will come to Barry Allen, the fastest man alive, to save the multiverse. It is believed that the speed force harnessed by the cosmic treadmill may be enough to disrupt the antimatter wave and halt its path of devastation. Join the Silver Vox...

Superman brought everyone together to use their collective knowledge and special abilities to build a stronger alliance. An alliance...
