The Unofficial ZERO HOUR Biography

THE COUNTDOWN HAS ALREADY BEGUN...
IMAGINE: The world you have known all your life suddenly begins to change.
The changes are almost imperceptible at first. But soon everything comes crashing around you.
Past and present contradict each other. History is no longer immutable.
Those long gone are no longer dead.
Dinosaurs and other extinct animals roam in you neighborhood.
Worst of all, your friends and loved ones are vanishing...or changing.
The very fabric of reality surrounding the DC Universe is unraveling.

In Smallville, Jor-El and Lara have returned to take Superman back to Krypton.
In Metropolis, Superman is faced with a multitude of Batmen.
Meanwhile, Batman, Nightwing, Robin, and Barbara Gordon are shocked to meet another, different Batgirl.

Elsewhere, the legendary Justice Society of America answers the call to action.
The timestream, made fragile by countless twists and myriad travelers, is now spinning out of control. Time is running out... quickly. Only the greatest heroes of every era and reality can stop this CRISIS IN TIME.
And stop it they must or the DC Universe will cease to exist-perhaps never to have existed at all.
With little warning, the end draws near.
Anomalies in the DC Universe threaten its future... and its past.

The 25th and 30th Centuries have been swallowed into oblivion. All that remains of all that once was is the 20th Century, now isolated in nothingness and threatened by destructive forces blindly chipping away at this lone pocket of time.
As the heroes battle to prevent The End of Time, momentous events occur. New heroes are born, while others are lost, and as time itself is extinguished, two beings take part in a final showdown with nothing to lose-because NOTHING IS LEFT.
A Void. Empty of sound, light, even life. Reality-the DC Universe-is no more.
But then there is a glimmer of hope, the glint of a new beginning.

A new reality emerges, a reality born from nothingness. It is a chance to start anew.
From that moment, the DC Universe faces a new existence. ZERO HOUR IS UPON US!

DC's biggest most important storyline in nearly a decade-ZERO HOUR: CRISIS IN TIME.
