  • Far beyond the realms of our understanding lies the sixth dimension--the control room of the Multiverse, where cosmic beings set our fates in motion long ago. Now, with our Multiverse hurtling toward a final judgment it will not survive, our only hope lies in the sixth dimension. No mortals have ever visited it...but the Justice League are no mere mortals! Through the doorway to the sixth dimension, the Justice League discovers a future version of Earth, where the hard choices have already been made and the Multiverse has already been saved. All they need to do now is accept this gift, and their battle will be over. But the easy choice is never as easy as it seems. As the Justice League learns the terrible secret of this seeming paradise, Superman must fight to free himself from an impossible trap--a universe designed just to imprison him. With a powerful being and an entire world aligned against our heroes, will the fate of the Justice League and the entire Multiverse come down to an assist from the Legion of Doom?

    15:45 Now I just thought of the original opening to the classic "Twilight Zone". The narration says, "There is a fifth dimension, beyond that which is known to man....this is the dimension of imagination. It's an area we call the twilight zone." I wonder if the writers were thinking of that when they were determining what each dimension was? That'd be a neat Easter egg/fun fact type thing.

    Spent the last half of 2020 catching up on every single episode of back issue, now I'm kinda sad cause I have to wait week to week now but so glad I discovered this channel and it is a crime that youtube didn't reccomend it too me sooner. I honestly believe that this channel doesn't have over 100.000 subscribers has nothing to do with the quality of interest in the content and EVERYTHING to do with the algorithm. How else could you explain that I get reccomended videos to channels I only watch occasionally and I'm not even subscribed to. While I only get reccomended your videos IF I'm already watching an episode. I'm sorry that you have to start over on another channel with your podcasts too, so many of your elseworlds exchange episodes can be listened to no matter when so I'm currently catching up on those.
    I know this is unrelated, but is there any chance that you will one day do Snyders entire run on Batman? I know you have done several of his stories but you also didn't do Death of the family with Ethan and Ben. Yes you can just skip or fast forward through the Gordon arc and only do the intersting bits with Bloom and then when Bruce becomes Batman again.

  • @ericemanwu

    The fun thing about Mxy is that he's one of the few villains who treats his "fights" as games, but who genuinely isn't interested in killing anyone. That he's playing with the toys of the 3rd dimension, and there's no point to breaking the toys, even when he's not having fun.
    Speaking of, I wouldn't mind seeing that mxy story when he merged supermans on back issues.

    Snyder's JL is just like a different version of Morrison's JLA but with higher stakes, but JLA's story is unparalleled, the build ups and conclusion of stories and the character development is on a whole different level.
    I mean, you can read them both and you will see that Snyder's Totality is exactly the same as Morrison's Worlogog, The Perfect World from Snyder's possible future is just like Morrison's 853rd century world, Lex making a new Legion of Doom in Snyder's run is exactly like Lex making a new Injustice Gang in Morrison's run, etc.

    This whole run obviously got WAY more insane than Snyder’s Batman run, but it felt like a perfect continuation of that + metal

    I had assumed the fire & lantern flashback stuff was Jorge Jimenez's idea (hence the co-write credit) and that the 6th dimension was hope. Hence Supes being the one who could & how the heroes following a Superman allowed them to travel through it.

    Fun fact: Jorge Jiminez said on Twitter that his inspiration behind that image of Superman, Jonathan Kent and Jon Kent was Goku and Gohan's Father-Son Kamehameha from Dragon Ball Z. He's a huge manga fan and this was his way of paying tribute to that iconic scene from the Dragon Ball series. Here's the tweet where Jorge says this: twitter.com/JorgeJimenezArt/status/1138051832289386496
