Real Origin For Crisis On Infinite Earths Revealed In Secret History Of The Multiverse and Perpetua’s Rise and Fall?!

Her Modern Day Legion Of Doom As Pawns?!

Twenty billion years ago in the Sixth Dimension, Perpetua…

…gives purpose to the World Forger, Monitor and Anti-Monitor representing…

…birth, life and death. She creates a multiverse for her own purposes with these three brothers with their domains.

Five billion years later in the Prime Universe…

…the brothers realize Perpetua’s…

…machinations on Earth. She creates life their; her final children after her first children of the World Forger, Monitor and Anti-Monitor.

We also learn that Perpetua’s multiverse creation and other efforts were to thwart the Judges of the Source and she turned on her the Monitor and her other sons! She sicks her new creations on them!

Two hundred thousand years later, the brothers send out a message seeking help to thwart Perpetua…

…she releases and attacks them with her last creations!

However, the brothers’ message is received…

…as Cosmic Raptor creates the Source Wall and banishes her in it!

This seals off this multiverse…

…angering the Anti-Monitor who will have dominion over nothing; he vows to destroy the various worlds of the multiverse!

The book ends in modern with Perpetua returned and her puppets being the Legion of Doom who take on the Justice League?

The Pulse:

A dense issue with nary a Justice League or Legion of Doom, but solid art. Pretty cool revisions of the history of DC and origin to the classic COIE. 7 out of 10.
