This is the moment that Batman Beyond has traveled back in time to stop-the moment when his terrible future is born. Five years from now, the world of tomorrow is on the brink of creation. Brainiac has arrived from the stars, and intends to take New York City with him as a souvenir. It’s enough to bring Superman out of self-imposed exile, but not even the Man of Steel or his former teammates on the Justice League may be enough to stop the alien conqueror. Can Batman Beyond, Stormwatch, the Justice League Dark, Firestorm and others stop both Brainiac and Brother Eye? Or will the future die along with them? It all leads up to this.

Five years from now, the future that Batman Beyond came back in time to stop is already in motion.

And in deep space, Stormwatch are dead, victims of the true threat from beyond our universe...the being we know as Brainiac. But while heroes still live, there’s still hope. On Arrow Island, Green Arrow has faked his own death and used the cover to begin recruiting an Army to take the fight to Brother Eye.

They blew it. Now the Flash is dead (again). The Green Lantern has been reduced to a flicker of his former self. Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman are at each other’s throats. And the Five have revealed their secret weapon: One of the supergenius siblings called the Wonder Twins, who resurrected the Justice League from oblivion, has been the League’s enemy all along. But his twin sister Terri is alive and well. With the help of super-science, the Fastest Man Alive is about to be reborn…as the Fastest Woman. And if she isn’t quick enough to defeat the Five, the future’s greatest heroes may have to turn to the past’s goofiest ones faster than you can say “bwa-ha-ha”.
