Five years from now, the DC Universe is reeling from a war with another Earth, leaving the world unprepared for an approaching evil that threatens to destroy the future. As heroes are turned into mindless villains, the planet as we know it is no more. The only salvation lies in the past, where this future apocalypse must be averted. Can a time-traveling Batman Beyond help a massive cast of the DCU's finest avert the impending apocalypse?

Written by a cast of the industry's best talents, including Jeff Lemire, Brian Azzarello, Keith Giffen and Dan Jurgens, this new epic series will expose the secrets of the New 52 universe!

Collecting the first third of the 2014 weekly New 52 Futures End series, this book is jam-packed. More than a dozen story arcs and sub-plots compete for space in its pages. From Firestorm's dissolution over the guilt Ronnie Raymond and Jason Rusch feel over the death of Green Arrow, to Red Robin lying low and running a bar; from Lois Lane's investigations to SHADE and Frankenstein in space; from Mr Terrific's helpful / harmful schemes to Grifter, Deathstroke and the imprisoned heroes of Earth 2. It takes a team of writers and an even larger team of artists to bring it all together.
