PLOT:
Krona's has killed all life on Earth and freed the Worldsoul. In the aftermath, Krona finally gets to ask his questions of a planetary entity. Not surprisingly, the questions are scientific ones, cold and calculated: how do worldsouls communicate? What is their purpose? How long do they live? Earth's soul has an answer for Krona, but it is not the one he desires. The Worldsoul shows Krona what it is to be a cosmic consciousness. There is knowledge without purpose. There is existence without need. Simply being is enough. The enraged Krona rejects these notions and as he is about to destroy the Worldsoul, the Trinity return.

Krona
PLOT:
The Trinity attempts to drive off Krona, the planet only alive thanks to the sparks of it they keep in their own souls. The mad Oan is not to be dissuaded, but the Worldsoul reminds the Trinity that the way to victory is not through further combat and destruction. Rather, it is through unity, and the united heroes converge on Krona, sealing him, the Worldsoul, and themselves inside a cosmic bubble cut from Batman’s very being. As the heroes complete their task, the Worldsoul speaks of a great sacrifice. Then, back at the North Pole, the members of the world’s heroic community awaken, though reality is not yet set right.
