The Rundown: A time traveler seeks out the League for help saving other time travelers.

Shadowy demons with the mark of Darkseid are hunting time travelers throughout multiple timelines. One traveler manages to barely escape and they go on a mission to find the Justice League. At the same time, Air Wave continues to deal with recent events while Terrific and Atom attempt to help a time affected Gold Beetle when the time traveler calling himself Legend arrives.

After explaining what is happening to his fellow time travelers, the League preps a team that includes Jonah Hex, Huntress, Batman, Marilyn Moonlight and more to accompany Legend in his ship the Waverider to help other time travelers before they discover the source of the omega demons and attempt to stop them once and for all.

The Story: Guggenheim and Waid craft a fun, thrilling and engaging adventure in this special issue. I love this storyline and how it draws on both the history of the DC universe and the eclectic group of heroes who reside within it. There is great action throughout the story and I love the mystery of Legend and who he might be. The story is fun, interesting and has a sense of immediacy that keeps me invested.

The Art: Tormey delivers fantastic art throughout the issue. The visuals are stunning in their details, scope and scale.
