Story
- " This hellscape is Apokolips, Darkseid's domain, with danger facing us around every corner. And none of that will prepare you for Darkseid himself. He is the single greatest threat to our world. We may be fools to be here, but we would be greater fools if we left Darkseid unchallenged." — Superman
- " Welcome to Apokolips. Now I see why Darkseid is so eager to rule other worlds. His mistake was coveting mine. Earth will not be under anyone's thumb. Well, any alien's thumb. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Today is the last day of Darkseid's reign." — Lex Luthor
- Darkseid and his nefarious plans must be stopped once and for all. He has finally gathered enough Artifacts of the Old Gods to construct to reshape them into a machine that will allow him to access the all-powerful Source. With a direct line to the Source, Darkseid's will could never be stopped. You must get there before he can release that divine power into the universe.
