Stock photoThis is a stock scan of the issue, so it shows what the comic looks like rather than this exact copy. Books under $5 are sold on my word: the grade is my honest read of this copy, and anything I spot is written in. If a photo would make the difference, ask and I will do what I can.

Story
The Justice League help rescue the civilians of Metropolis as Darkseid and Jimmy Olsen battle, both grown to enormous size, amongst its buildings. Hidden in Jimmy's brain, the Atom discovers the repository of New Gods' souls and, as Darkseid is about to kill Jimmy, takes it out of his head and crushes it, releasing a huge plume of energy. As Darkseid threatens to kill the Atom, Orion appears having obviously survived his apparent death in The Death Of The New Gods #5. The heroes watch as the father and son battle each other to a stalemate until Orion rips out Darkseid's heart from his chest, killing him.
