Page 3 "I can hear Supergirl's heartbeat"
Page 4 "It's in perfect sync with Power Girl's"
We then go on a ride showing Clayface and others going after her, and she seems almost at the point of losing...but thats when Earth 2 Superman flys in and saves the day. "Cousin"
Next we have the Daily Planet, where news of different dead heroes and Omacs is floating through the air, while Lois is trying to get her head on straight. She goes to Clark who is staring at an oversized "Superman Dead" front page, thinking about what Bruce said last issue. He realizes that he really needs to get out there and do something...NOW.
Here's a list, in order, of what follows:
-Meeting of Secret Society of Super Villians
-Luthor confused after listening in on the Soiciety on a polar ice cap
-Earth 2 Superman and Power Girl fly by heading towards thier own little hide out
-5 pages explaining everthing pre CoiE up to NOW (VERY well done)
-Earth 2 Lois is dying
-Booster Gold appears at the crater of the watchtower, and realizes he has one job: to find the Blue Beetle scarab.
-The Joker finally shows up. He's killed most of The Royal Flush Gang and is torturing the King, asking why he isnt being recruited like all the other villians. "See, everyone knows...Joker's TOO wild" Joker zaps his face off "That's not funny..."
-Power Girl touches Earth 2 Lois and remembers everything from her life on Earth 2
-Batcave...Batman gets a talking to from OMAC...blaming metahumans for everything, especially Wonder Woman
-Themyscira (2 page spread...very well detailed) Wonder Woman defending the island from many OMACs as the Amazons fight
-The last 2 pages are hard to explain and is probably the biggest "Spoiler" of them all
Kal-L last page
"...But i realized we saved the wrong earth"
"I need your support and help, Cousin. We can save Lois. We can save her if we can take her home."
"This corrupted and darkened Earth must be forgotten as ours was..."
"...So that the right Earth can return"
It is big...Ion gave a great descrip, no need for me to do it now.
Now Im wondering if the 2 supermen will be battling each other...

I don't why, but my favorite part in that issue was Clark at the Daily Planet looking at framed frontpage of the daily planet "Superman Dead" and him telling Lois that "Bruce is right...He's always right."
I don't think Dc is going to go back to old days.
I really think that it is going to get darker. Golden Age Supes won't get what he wants.

Gender: Male Location: SF Bay, What is it Beezies?
This issue was a summary of the original crisis. It gave Power Girl an origin.
And it showed us that Superman from Earth 2 wants to get rid of Earth 1.
Not much is actually happening yet; its following a pace similiar to HoM. I think that will change with issue 3 though.
I still feel like I am being punished for not being able to afford the minis to IC though. It seems like a lot of the essential parts of the plot were in them.
As a whole though, it's not driving me wild. (Which is understandible because my budget limits the amount of DC stuff I pick up each month.)
It looked like Batman got it this time.
Alfred: "You know, There was one thing your father never wanted to be... Alone"
"Fortunately, he had your Mother at his side..."

I've just read issues 121 and 120 of JLA. Whopse the guy who as broken out of Arkyham ? Is he potentionally the 'crisis' or is he just a side plot? I saw that Trigon had featured in one of the recent Teen Tiatn books. Could he be in for a match against Spectre ? What role is the real Luthor going to play in this whole affair, and where has the other one come from ? What is devouring the the DC galaxies ?
That, my friend is the Key. He once nearly took over the universe by opening the door to the infinite(some crazy crap like that) but was stopped by Green Arrow (dont ask..)

What makes you think Diana will die? NO way in hell they would kill off Diana since she's part of the Big Three..plus she'll just turn into a goddess again. That would be horrifically redundant.
Batman should die. All signs point to him dying.
Flash would also be utterly redundant. Kid Flash is way too young and inexperienced to take the reigns.
Just read the issue. Too be honest it wasn't as good as the first. But it IS laying groundwork for cinematic battles...
Also I didn't think it was possible but PC Supes is even MORE of a dick than usual. Who the hell does he think he is by wanting to make the DC Universe a backward 50's Pleasantville-esque universe? Jesus Christ. The nerve...
