Leave it to DC to reset the reset that reset it's last reset because "starting over" is apparently the only way they know how to drum up interest in their comics. And it works because every time they do another Crisis, by the end, I can't wait for them to reverse what they just did. Here's looking at you Doomsday Clock.

Here's my opinion I think the Multiverse in DC is much like a farmer's crops. DC universe resets itself much like a farmer. They initially grows the plants they get to a stage in which they have to be Harvest this is when the DC crisis happens and after that it resets back to zero. Every Multiverse must be eaten by the great Darkness during a crisis in order to start the balance over again.

I am currently loving this story. Though in my opinion, I would say that the power levels in this crisis are a little wack. I think they could downscale it from switching the great darkness with the empty hand. (just so it doesnt go overboard with the scaling of power)

A call back to Alan Moore's Swamp thing story line where Swampy beats the darkness by essentially being non violent.

6:20 The pannel that you're showing is from the 2016 Lucifer run (which differs from the early 2000s run by Mike Carey). In the run Lucifer directly states that the Great Darkness is another one of his names and we see a large black hand acting as an aspect of his being (one of the co-writers when asked if this was the Great Darkness of the Alan Moore run said that it was). Lucifer in this series is depicted more of as a living breathing concept, the archetype for which all other devils are merely metaphors for, with the idea of the devil being the anthesis of God being represented in the form of the Great Darkness and as aspect of Lucifer.

I always question if they were going to use the great darkness why isn't half of the vertigo characters not a major part of this dark crisis event it will make sense to see them especially swamp things since he had a lot of dealings with the great darkness at the time so it's kind of weird that they just kind of ignored most of the vertigo characters when they're doing something with the great darkness.

Empty Hand was revealed to be that right hand of the Great Darkness in “Justice League Incarnate #4”. I’m not entirely sure how they are going actually tie the Great Darkness and Lucifer’s relationship/connection together. But in “Dark Crisis: The Deadly Green” it seems to me to imply that Lucifer is also in some type of way only a part of the great darkness as in the great darkness itself the ultimate darkness but Lucifer is just a part of him as we’ve seen with countless other characters in dark crisis.

I hope that they end up making a new injustice sequel comic and game. If they included dr. Manhattan and one of the story lines let’s superman take his full power, that would just be insane. They’d have to even the playing field somehow. Like superman uses the new powers to bestow powers on new injustice league members and the insurgents have to develop tech to steal the powers and put them in weapons that let them stand a chance. That or they ally with gods or Lucifer to get power that way.

Few years is too long.

Im glad they are going more in depth with The Great Darkness and eventually the presence. They haven’t been mentioned in so long and now they are back to remind everyone there place in the Entire DC Universe Landscape. Nothing is above them besides the over monitor being the concept that forever binds them all together. This also allows for more story telling and be able to truly balance out the power scaling. Omniverse Level: Great Darkness, Presence, Lucifer, Michael. Multiversal Level: The Empty Hand, Darkseid (Not there yet, but can be), The Hands. Dr Manhattan. Superboy-Prime, Batman Who Laughs. Theory is that there will be a omniversal crisis that will allow crossovers from the actual marvel and image comics (spawn). It was already hinted in doomsday clock that marvel and dc will cross over so it is very possible.
