Preview
The Comic
This is the comic that features the death of Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman, introduce some back story for characters of another book, and gives a few of the remaining pages to someone who will actually be a main character in the series in the end.
Seriously, that is what it is all about.
You have to know a little bit about how Earth 2 works. It seems like it was lightly touched on in this book, and it does get more fleshed out if you pick up World's Finest.
It's alt-history of the new 52 universe, which is kinda alt-history itself if you think about it. All in all, its not too shabby. Think of the big battle from Justice League #1-6 boiled down to one issue where our heroes lose. This isn't something for me, but it isn't too bad in and of itself.
The Art
Its isn't too shabby either. It is a better version of regular superhero art. Just not for me.
The Cover
Alt version of Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman at war? Not too bad. Definitely catches the eye.

Recommend: Eh. Not for me, might be for you.
