"Bruce, you think all your life, you have been doing this alone? You think you've been the one to keep everything in check. No.. It was I who chose you... It was I who led you to this path.... That cave where you met the bunch of bats... It was I who sent the bats so that you could be inspired... It was I who brought you back from the past.."
Those were the words of Barbatos to Bruce Wayne.
The people didn't expect that Batman himself was a victim from the start. All his life he had been a normal person with extraordinary skills but now it seemed like that his history wasn't normal. Then the story went on to see the struggle of the Justice League in order to stop the arrival of Barbatos.
Barbatos was made by the World Forger. The matter multiverse and the anti-matter multiverse were under Monitor and Anti-Monitor, two beings who were responsible for the proper function of their respective group of universes. But the World Forger was the third brother of the two and was responsible to look over creation in the sea of possibilities.
He made the Dark Multiverse after the fears and crumbling hopes of the people from the positive multiverse. And in order to not affect the positive multiverse, he had made Barbatos. A being which was responsible for devouring the Dark Multiverse.
But in time his hunger was too high and wanted to devour the positive multiverse too. And thus he had chosen Batman as the portal when he went back in time.
The Justice League had done everything possible to stop the emergence of Barbatos but they failed and soon he took over the world. The Justice League, seeing no way out, went to meet the World Forger to get help but the World Forger denied any kind of help.
But Batman being Batman, was able to trick and get help which eventually led them to the use of Tenth Metal. The metal which was responsible for creation (Boom tubes are made of tenth metal) and eventually with this tenth metal the Justice League members got a huge power boost.
And finally was able to defeat Barbatos. But this came at a cost.
The crack in the Source Wall. The Source Wall had been teased since the last series. And now the audience understood why it was shown that way. The break of the Source Wall meant the worst prisoners known to the multiverse would be out soon.
The first part of the series ended in this way. It was a long binge of almost 6 hours of watch time together. Since it was a premiere, the people got enough food and snacks to watch it. Disney had to wrestle for getting the proper rights so that people could sit and watch and had to take consent of the guests.
And the 6 hours was worth it. It was dark to say the least but it showed that the multiverse was complicated and it wasn't as simple as they thought. Kevin had made it clear that this story wasn't of their multiverse. Though there were some elements and heroes from this multiverse on their own.
This was a relief for the audience as such a multiverse would just be a world of fear and nothing more. After the first part, everyone congratulated John about the story. Though now they got the feeling that he had been taking the story of others rather than making his own, but nobody pointed it out.
He was chosen as the friend of the multiverse. Maybe that was his power. Power to make friends across time and space. And since he had that power why wouldn't he capitalise on it. Everyone went back after the release of the first part of the series.
Simultaneously, it was also released online on Netflix for the normal audience to watch. As expected, people loved the series even though it was dark and gritty. Batman, who was on the pedestal all this time, was brought down.
This was a bold move by Disney as they never expected a version of Batman to be so cruel, especially the tale of Robin King. Bruce Wayne killed his own parents in that universe and proceeded to kill each member of the Justice League. And even killed Alfred in the most cruel way possible. Robin King literally gave the people chills.
But the social media wasn't only talking about the series. It was also talking about the people who had shown up from the premiere. This was mind blowing news for many. Though the presence of Shinigamis did raise concern for many but then again death was something which would eventually arrive for all. No matter what, at least now they knew where they would go if they had too much attachment to the material world, supposing that the Shinigamis did their job well.

The internet was buzzing at the moment. Reddit, Twitter, Instagram and all other social media was full of articles on John Jameson, the Captains, the Kages, the Straw hats and the Fairy Tail. Last but not the least Justice League.
Those hashtags were trending like crazy and it just boosted the last series more. The last series was known as Dark Nights and the name portrayed the story exactly like it was meant to be.
People binge watched the whole part in one day. It was fortunate that Disney had released the series on Saturday so many people were at home watching the series and they didn't need to take a day off just to watch the series.
Disney have been very serious about the last series from John and they needed everything possible for it to be right and not cause any obstacles for him. And they had been successful.John's summons and the series jointly shot his popularity to unbelievable heights again.
The series was released not only on Earth but on all places where Disney had touched his hands. the Nova Empire, the 10 realms, the Shi'ar Empire... Everything...
John was happy to see the trend and his fan values were also rising. The introduction of many people from his anime made the people believe his stories more than ever and let his fan values rise up at an exponential rate.
But it wasn't all good and happy times. The Avengers were having a grim face when they had watched the series. They expected the situation to be bad but this was something else altogether. Various evil versions of Batman had come out and now they finally understood how the Source Wall was broken from the other side.
The use of X-metal. And this wasn't even the end. Perpetua hadn't come out yet and she probably was the last enemy they would have to face. In order to defeat the Batman who Laughs, Batman and Joker teamed up. This was the highlight of the entire series and people didn't expect that. But only John knew that Perpetua wasn't the last enemy of the story.
The Batman who Laughs was. But he didn't spoil it for them, after all in the real world even he wasn't the last enemy for them. Dr. Strangefate was. And that might not be the last. The enemies would never stop as long as there were ambitions.
As Vision once said the existence of Avengers would always ask for a challenge and this trend would continue till they exist. But it didn't mean that they should stop defending and just sit by and watch.
The next day soon arrived and the people who had arrived for the premiere yesterday, came today too with none skipping it. The story was too good and exciting for anyone to miss. And the story was important too for everyone to understand.
The journalists who were high on adrenaline yesterday felt the same today too. One journalist even mustered the courage to approach Yamamoto for questions and surprising everyone, Yamamoto did answer some of the questions with a smiling face.
The journalist knew that his courage had just won him a promotion in his office. He had just scored a lottery. Like the previous day, today too was a long time on the red carpet though it didn't take 4 hours.
Soon everyone went inside the premiere for the last part of the series and saw what the consequences were after the break of the Source Wall. Like the last part, this too started as an exposition. It showed that after the break of the Wall, the first invasion came in the form of Giants as they came to devour planets in order to compete against each other. The Justice League and the Lanterns came together to take care of this after Brainiac formed the team to stop the invasion.
But little did they know that Brainiac and Lex Luthor, the new champion of Perpetua would betray them at the end. And that betrayal, ushered the age of Perpetua for the positive multiverse. And the moment she emerged, she reshaped the multiverse into her own image.
The prime Earth was divided into 4 continents
Themyscira, Megapokolies, Arkham Wasteland and Castle Black.
In her race to the throne, it was Batman who Laughs that helped her regain all the power. Lex was cast aside and Laughs took over as her commander and reshaped everything according to the will of Perpetua.
The Justice League had fallen. Diana was in Themyscira working for Batman who Laughs, Bruce and Superman were missing. Scratch that, many superheroes were missing. Those who were alive were just living under the radar as the army of Batman who Laughs was actively hunting them.
An army which was composed of different Batmans. Starting from Dinosaur - Batman to a Transformer - Batman.
