Publisher’s description

Deadman introduces the most-recently slain Superman to the ghosts of his future selves in an extra-sized issue that finds the Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman of twenty years hence helpless against Gog's rampage. The world's three greatest super-heroes must undertake a desperate plan to save all reality... even if they must sacrifice their own timeline to do it!
