Spoilers and review follow for writer Geoff Johns and artist Jason Fabok’s Darkseid War launch in Justice League #40. It continues from the final pages of Forever Evil that has the Anti-Monitor descend on the Crime Syndicate’s Earth 3!
Interesting that the New Gods’ Metron Chair belongs to the Anti-Monitor whose real name is Mobius; you may recall Metron’s chair is called the Mobius Chair!
Interesting history lesson and banter between the Anti-Monitor and Metron as the upcoming battle with Darkseid is set up.
We also learn who another big player for Darkseid War will be; Darkseid’s daughter, the “Anti-God”?
Justice League #40 leads into DC Comics Free Comic Book Day 2015 (FCBD 2015) Divergence #1 offering. In DC’s FCBD 2015 Divrgence #1 we’ll learn the origin of Darkseid’s daughter named Grail!
Thanks for reading. All feedback welcome.
