Vorlage:Short description Vorlage:Infobox comic book title "Dark Crisis" (later called "Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths") is a 2022 comic book storyline published by DC Comics, comprising an eponymous central mini-series by writer Joshua Williamson and artist Daniel Sampere, and a number of tie-in books.

Plot

Prelude

Darkseid revealed to his Apokolitian Elites about the Great Darkness which he planning to take control of its power and his plan on cracking the omniverse. After escaping from Darkseid, Barry Allen runs aimlessly into the ruin of Multiverse-1 where he meets Pariah who imprisoned him in an alternate reality.[1]

Doctor Multiverse from Earth-8 had not received contact from Machinehead after his negotiation with Darkseid while planning the crack the multiverse. Justice League Incarnate, led by Calvin Ellis, decided to rescue the Flash until they got separated from the Parademon armies attacking their headquarters and confronting other multiversal threats. When Doctor Multiverse touches the crack, she learns a shocking history and convinced the heroes to let Darkseid win.[2]

She reveals to the heroes and Darkseid that the Great Darkness was responsible for causing multiple catastrophic events because of its desire to end all things. During the birth of the multiverse, the Great Darkness declares war against the Light in an attempt to destroy it. The Great Darkness took possession of the Antimonitor as its champion while facing faceoff against the Light's champion, the Monitor who summons the heroes to stop him resulting in the obliteration of the entire multiverse into a single universe which weakens the Light. As the Darkness attempted to regain control, the Swamp Thing successfully brokered the truce with the Light forcing the Darkness to retreat to slumber thereafter. However, the Darkness has other plans as it continues to exert its influence by manipulating Magog, the Anti-Life Entity, Extant, Superboy-Prime, and Mister Mind, resulting to the creation of 52 Earths. When the Multiverse of 52 Earths was created, the truce between the Great Darkness and the Light was broken which enables the Darkness to reawaken as it spread across the multiverse. Darkseid, however, was well aware of its influence and was planning to take control of Earth-0 by altering the prophecy and gain possession of the Anti-Life equation to lure the Darkness so that he might take control of everything. His plan succeeded but at the cost of his life. When Superman activates the Miracle Machine to heal the fabric of the universe, the Darkness reveals itself as it took possession of a fallen monitor Mandrakk but was later defeated when the last Monitor Nix Uotan summons the entire heroes. This enrages the Darkness believing that the heroes of the multiverse are much of a greater threat than villains such as Darkseid. The Darkness was able to spread its influence further across the multiverse upon its encounter with a quantum life-form, manipulating him into altering timelines and history from the Heroes of Earth-0. During Justice League Incarnate's confrontation with the Gentry, the primordial entity Empty Hand was created as Darkness' right hand resulting from its truce with the Light. This enables Empty Hand into summoning his Gentry into conquering Earth-7, possessing Nix Uotan, and creating the Oblivion Machine to undo the wish of the Miracle Machine. Then, Darkness summons the bat demon Barbatos as its avatar to sink Earth-0 into darkness by revealing the unknown horrors of the Dark Multiverses which causes the Metal wars. Despite Barbatos' failure, its Darkest knight ascended by taking over the Multiverse but was soon defeated by Wonder Woman allowing the Hands to revert Perpetua's damage and recreate an omniverse, which Earth-0 is no longer the center of it. Doctor Multiverse then reveals Darkseid's plan into taking control of the Great Darkness after taking over Earth-Omega, killing the Quintessence, and cracking open the omniverse, which the heroes thwarted his plans. Doctor Multiverse believed that the only way to defeat The Great Darkness is to let Darkseid win.[3]

The heroes disapprove of this while Darkseid reveals his first plan to control the Darkness is to declare war on Earth-7 and confront Empty Hand. As Thomas Wayne attempt to sedate Doctor Multiverse, he is now possessed by the Great Darkness causing Darkseid to kill him and take Doctor Multiverse's energy with him before teleporting to Earth-7. As the heroes try to intervene, the possessed members attack them under the influence of the Empty Hand which Doctor Multiverse frees them. The Empty Hand manages to overpower Darkseid allowing him to activate the Oblivion Machine and lure Darkseid into the dark void. With Orion now the ruler of Apokolips, he decided to destroy Oblivion Machine which the Justice Incarnate continues to rescue Barry Allen. The heroes enter the void only to discover that Barry is trapped in the twisted reality. As they tried to convince Barry to leave, he refused. Pariah suddenly appears and tries to persuade them of their desire but Doctor Multiverse knows his deception and forced the team to retreat. As Orion departed to Apokolips, Thunderer summons his powers to destroy the Machine decimating Earth-7 in the process before evacuating with the team. Having failed to rescue Barry and the multiverse in jeopardy, the Justice League Incarnate decides to summons Barry's Justice League for aid. Somewhere in the Void, Pariah revealed to Darkseid that despite the Justice League Incarnates' success in closing the portal, the Multiverse-1 and 2 were weakened. This enables the Great Darkness to take control of Darkseid and submit him to its will creating its own Dark Army alongside Ares, Doomsday, Eclipso, Nekron, Empty Hand, and Upside Down Man.[4]

Black Adam, Batman, Wonder Woman, Hawkgirl, Superman, Zatanna, Aquaman, John Stewart, Martian Manhunter, Black Canary, and Green Arrow are transported into the House of Heroes (headquarters of the Justice League Incarnate) where it's revealed that Calvin Ellis teleported them because Barry Allen is trapped in a twisted reality and the Great Darkness has enslaved Darkseid, and killed Spectre. Wonder Woman explains her discussion with The Hands about the cost to the team. Arriving at Multiverse-1 ruins after the attack, The team is encountered by Pariah who is now under influence of the Darkness. Superman offered Pariah's aid but he rejects their help believing that the heroes ruined everything. He claims that he will let the Justice League's world die for the true Multiverse to be reborn. Pariah summons the Dark Army, with Spectre and the Antimonitor's shadow demons as their allies, to fight against the Justice League and Justice League Incarnate. During the battle, the Justice League was surprised at how brutal they were and discovered that they were all possessed by the Great Darkness. The battle ends when Green Arrow shoots his arrow to destroy Pariah's machine before being killed by Doomsday. Enraged by their interference, Pariah summons his power to erase both the Justice League and Justice League incarnate from existence. With grieving Black Canary stranded with Green Arrow, Black Adam manages to escape and lands in front of the Justice League headquarters, saying the Justice League is dead. [5] After Talia al Ghul killed Deathstroke, his army put his body in the Lazarus pits, where Deathstroke is revived and tells everyone that he will kill everyone.[6]

Jon Kent meets up with Nightwing and reports to him about the Justice League's death from Black Adam. Nightwing and Jon Kent discuss how heroes usually died and return more often and decide to team up and fulfill their legacy. Wally West, Iris West, Linda Park, and Wallace West discuss Barry's disappearance and Wally promises Iris that he will find him. After his hero duties with Wallace, Wally revisits the Flash museum honoring heroes' sacrifices before receiving the call from Jon. Hal Jordan learns from aqualad about the Leagues' death before escorting the corrupted alien to its home after being cured. Trapped in the false reality taking place before the Justice League's death, Pariah wanders endlessly to face his guilt while avoiding hallucinations until he discovered the multiverse destruction which is all real, which the Great Darkness persuaded him to build the machine and Pariah agrees. Noctura encounters Stephanie Brown at the museum and understood the loss of Batman until she was persuaded to join the Secret Society of Super Villains.
