  • Tales from the Dark Multiverse: Infinite Crisis · 48 pages

    Tempus Fuginaut observes a Dark Multiverse version of Infinite Crisis, where instead of Max Lord killing Ted Kord when he discovered his plans to control the world, Ted turns the tables and kills Max Lord. Then, Ted takes control of Checkmate and use Brother One and the O.M.A.C. project to change events to prevent the upcoming Crisis while the Justice League is unaware. Ultimately, Brother One calculates that the greatest threat to Earth are superheroes, so Ted takes steps to eliminate them.

Publisher’s description

DC’s mega-event “Infinite Crisis” saw the destruction of the Trinity, the rise of Alexander Luthor and Superboy-Prime, and the rebirth of the Multiverse...but it all started with Ted Kord, the Blue Beetle, who saw it all coming and died with secrets that could’ve saved the world. But...things happened differently in the Dark Multiverse! Not only does Blue Beetle survive- he thrives! And after killing Maxwell Lord himself, Ted sets off a chain of events that irreversibly alters the lives of the Justice League and his best friend, Booster Gold. In trying to prevent a crisis, Blue Beetle becomes the Crisis...and the Dark Multiverse will never be the same.
