☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection examines the historical and religious concept of the Last Judgment, tying into DC's 2013 'Day of Judgment' event. It gathers issues from the series, exploring how the idea of final judgment has evolved across cultures and faiths, with a focus on its impact within the DC Universe narrative.
In "The Summoning," Geoff Johns and Matt Smith lead a pivotal moment in the Day of Judgment saga as Earth’s heroes split into three desperate missions: defending the planet, reigniting Hell’s fires, and seeking Heaven’s aid to free Jim Corrigan from the Spectre’s burden. When Heaven denies their plea, the team is sent to Purgatory—where they’re met by the unexpected presence of Hal Jordan’s soul, setting the stage for a confrontation that redefines what it means to be a hero. The cover by Matthew Dow Smith and Steve Mitchell captures the weight of that moment in stark, haunting detail.
In "The Summoning," Etrigan’s desperate bid to free Asmodel from Hell unleashes a cataclysmic rift, flooding Earth with demonic hordes. With creation itself hanging in the balance, Zatanna rallies a diverse group of mystical heroes to form the Sentinels of Magic and stand against the rising tide.
In "Lost Souls," a desperate mission to restore balance sees heroes split into three paths—one to defend Earth, another to reignite Hell, and a third to plead with Heaven for Jim Corrigan’s release to wield the Spectre. When Heaven denies them, they’re sent to Purgatory, where they’re met by the unexpected presence of Hal Jordan’s soul.
In "Choosing Sides," the remnants of Earth’s heroes and fallen souls return to the world with Hal Jordan’s spirit in tow, only to face a new threat as they race to recover the Spear of Destiny—its power a potential weapon against the monstrous Asmodel-Spectre. The story unfolds with urgent stakes, as alliances are tested and choices made in the shadow of an impending reckoning.
In "The End of the World as We Know It," the heroes of Hell reignite the flames of damnation, paying a devastating price that claims the Enchantress and Faust’s fragile soul. As they return to Earth, Jordan is on the verge of claiming the Spectre’s power, while Superman falls under an unknown, sinister control.
In "Soul Search," Jo, a reluctant mortal, finds himself at the center of a cosmic battle as the Spectre's power is contested by the demonic Asmodel and the infernal Neron. With the fate of the Spectre—and the balance between Heaven and Hell—hanging in the balance, Jo must confront the weight of divine judgment before the final choice is made.
In "The Destiny Dilemma," the Sentinels of Magic gather to decide the fate of the Spear of Destiny, a relic of unimaginable power. When the Wizard disguises himself as Zatanna to steal it, his plan unravels—leading to a shocking confrontation that leaves him absorbed into Ragman’s costume.
