The New Justice League
Prologue
Imagine a world where there was no difference between day and night. A world where the sky was a burning shade of orange, being as it was simply a reflection of the charred ground below. It would not have been a strange occurrence for this world to have streams of lava erupting from large gaps in this ground, only to disappear into the sky as quickly as they appeared. Most people would compare this description to either a decaying planet or the underworld. If you happened to pick either of these options, you'd technically be correct.
This world had a name and as unbelievable as it may sound a ruler. A bald grey skinned man with glowing red eyes. He was outfitted with dark blue armor, gloves and knee high boots. He ruled his planet's inhabitants with fear, for his power was greater than anyone could possibly imagine. His name was Darkseid, the ruler of Apocalypse.
Darkseid's eyes began to glow with rage as he looked on through a portal, suspended in open space. This portal was a gateway, controlled by a remote held in the palm of his right hand, for Darkseid to travel from his world to others. At this point in time, his destination was clear, as an image of the earth was shown through the portal.
"Kara Zor-El, enjoy the time you have left on your peaceful planet. For once my plan is set in motion the earth will learn to show me the respect I deserve as I become their new ruler. The time of the Apocalypse has come!" Darkseid's laughter seemed to echo throughout the underworld as he prepared to step through the portal to Earth.
