* A minor one to Slade's Secret Society. Despite being a team entirely comprised of C-list supervillain fodder, they completely ''[[CurbStompBattle wiped the floor]]'' with Lex Luthor and his Legion of Doom in a massive upset victory. Proving themselves to be [[NotSoHarmlessVillain Not-So-Harmless Villains]] while shutting down Black Adam's self-righteous insistence that [[NecessarilyEvil stooping to evil]] is the only way to survive the Crisis.


Added DiffLines:

** The simple fact that this issue officially marks the first time DC's new [[PowerTrio Trinity]] truly stands together. With Jon fighting tooth and nail to HoldTheLine, Yara using her lasso to force Pariah to finally see the AwfulTruth behind his actions, while Jace uses his ingenuity to finally bring an end to Pariah by [[UseTheirOwnWeaponAgainstThem using his own Anti-Matter Cannon against him]]. If these three really are the future of the DC Universe, then the future is bright.
* With Pariah finally dealt with, Jon [[HeroicRROD collapses to his knees]], seemingly content to GoOutWithASmile knowing that he did his best while a bloodthirsty Doomsday charges straight at him. Cue his old man, the [[BigGood Big Blue Boyscout]] himself, swooping in the nick of time to [[BigDamnHeroes intercept Doomsday's punch]]. The father and son then work together to knock the monstrosity flat on his ass before embracing each other.

* Issue 6 has Jace and Mr. Terrific needing time to use Pariah's machine when the Dark Army charges at them. Yara realizes that she can use her lasso to make him see the truth of the Great Darkness, but she needs time. Wordlessly, Jon rushes out to them
--> '''Yara:''' Jon, what are you doing?!\\
'''Jon:''' A JOB FOR SUPERMAN!

Typo.


* Issue 5 also features a rallying cry from Nightwing, which is inspiring in-universe and satisfying out of it as a final retort to Dan Didio's tenure of office at DC. When Dick Grayson finally takes the leadership role from Jon Kent, dissolving the Legacy League and uniting the remaining superheroes to push back against Deathstroke's imminent assault, Black Adam intercedes, angrily telling them they can't win and they're not the Justice League. Nightwing gives his team a meaningfull look and offers a simple response before they charge.

* Issue 4, Barry Allen and Hal Jordan reuniting, complete with a reference to their status as the original Brave and the Bold.
* Issue 5 reveals that Superman knew all along he wasn't in the real world and tried to escape over and over again only to be stopped. When that fell through, he pretended to go along with it... so he could ''study'' the new world and how it worked. He never accepted it, because in his own words: "It's still a world without the Justice League." Cue him channeling the fake world's energies through him and singlehandedly breaking the League out in a cosmic powerup for the ages.

* The stunning duel between Nightwing and Deathstroke in issue #2, the first time the two have had a proper one-on-one battle in over a decade.
* Jon Kent versus Cyborg-Superman. After getting pounded on most of the fight and being subjected to a brutal TheReasonYouSuckSpeech by Henshaw, Jon [[LetsGetDangerous gets dangerous]] and lets his ''real'' power loose. Result? He ''one-hit [=KOs=] Henshaw'' by body-slamming him through every floor of Titans Tower.
* Aquaman's HesBack moment at the end of ''Worlds Without a Justice League: Superman''.
-->'''Aquaman:''' Look at this, Mera, look at all we've built. We gave this to them and now we get it all back. And maybe one day it'll all be real... like it was meant to be. But, it's not real. Not yet. I don't have everything yet. I don't have my hands around your throat. You think you've beaten us -- but better than you have tried, and, in the end... not even ''death'' will hold us. ''I've been dead before and I've come back''. Soon... we'll see if you can say the same.
* Issue 3 drops two big ones: the return of the Justice Society and the Legion of Doom.
