Justice
League #40
is the prologue of the Darkseid War as Metron begins the story of how he
brokered peace between Apokolips and New Genesis by exchanging the sons of Darkseid
and Highfather. Orion from Apokolips and Scot Free of New Genesis were
exchanged and war between the worlds was prevented. However the Crisis of
Infinite Earths began threatening reality, Zero Hour threatened
time, Infinite Crisis threatened the Multiverse, and Flashpoint
threatened both reality and time.
During Forever Evil the Crime Syndicate’s world of Earth-3 was destroyed by the Anti-Monitor who plans to follow them to New Earth. Metron knows the Anti-Monitor as Mobius who was once the observer like Metron rather than the destroyer he is now. The Anti-Monitor’s actions lead to the Multiverse being vulnerable to the events of Convergence. Now Metron wants to help Mobius become the Monitor again however he wants to end the Age of the New Gods and begin the Age of the Anti-God with the help of Darkseid's daughter.
Part one of Darkseid War begins with the introduction of Scot Free AKA Mister Miracle who realizes Darkseid is building an army and travels to Earth to find the Justice League.

She uses Power Ring to tap into another universe to summon the Anti-Monitor. Part two sees both Superman and Lex Luthor are on Apokolips while Mister Miracle meets Myrina Black the mother of Grail who is a weapon against Darkseid.
