Meanwhile, the Martian Manhunter infiltrates Darkseid's lunar fortress in hopes of dismantling the technology that is powering the seeds. Despite using his invisibility powers, the despot of Apokolips is able to detect the Manhunter's presence. Darkseid warns that any interference with Desaad's computers will result in the automatic destruction of the Earth. It's clearly a bluff on Darkseid's part. Unfortunately the stakes are too great for J'onn J'onnz to risk it.
So instead of the series ending before Batman, Robin and The Flash get a chance to destroy the seed they've been tasked with, we're going to get 2 more issues of the Justice League Vs. The New Gods of Apokolips. I'm not complaining. But just once I'd like to see the good guys call Darkseid's bluff and see the villain kinda crumble in utter disappointment.
Sure, the ending would have been anticlimactic. Yet you couldn't argue that it was an ending nobody saw coming. Not even the antagonists.
Worth Consuming!
Rating: 7 out of 10 stars.
