Final Crisis
by Grant Morrison, J. G. Jones, Carlos Pacheco, Doug Mahnke
A dense DC crossover in which Darkseid's fall distorts reality, Batman is lost, and Superman confronts the end of creation itself.
Geek’s cut
Comic-book storytelling with the density of a good tech spec: every panel doing double duty, every line of dialogue carrying lore, emotion, or both.
Deeper dive
Grant Morrison's crossover begins with Darkseid's return to Earth in 2008 and expands into a reality-spanning crisis that collapses into the fate of Batman, Superman, and the multiverse.
