Dive into this new reality, where Blake Riley interacts with this different version of the DC Trinity (Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman) and how he would deal with certain events.

But before the big adventure, you must know a bit of this reality and what led to Blake to eventually cross paths with his Earth's Justice League.

It was a cold, dark, and rainy night. Thunder roared as lightning struck from above. Inside of a house, a woman named Amanda Waller was calmly sitting on her sofa, reading a book, before going up to bed. Suddenly, a portal opened in her living room, which startled her and removed her glasses. Two figures then stepped out of the portal, wearing an interesting set of clothing and two distinct masks. One resembled a fox and a wolf. They both took off their masks, to reveal their faces.

Amanda: "Oh my god, Owen, Selina, you two almost gave me a heart attack."

Owen: "We're sorry for dropping in unexpectedly, but we wouldn't be here if the situation was dire."

Amanda: "Why, what's going on?" She asked.

She then looked over to Selina, to which she looked to be very sad and she was holding a baby in her arms.

Selina: "Amanda, our universe is on the brink of collapse."

Amanda: "W-What?"

Selina: "I have foreseen what had led to this. The council of our world thought they could use the Zero Point as a weapon for war, but those idiots didn't take into account that by using too much power, it would bring not only our world, but the entire universe into destruction."

Owen: "We're going to be heading back to our world to resolve it. It won't save our planet, but it will at least save yours."

Amanda: "Okay, but why did you bring Blake here with you?"

Owen and Selina glanced at each other, to which the Queen began to cry and look down on her child.

Selina: "Our world's destruction isn't the only thing I have seen...mine and Owen's time has come, Amanda. We are both going to die."

Amanda: "No. No, no, don't say that. You're gonna come back, you have to come back!" She yelled, as tears began to form.

Owen: "Our son's safety, yours, and everyone else's are much more important than our lives. We want you to look after him, as you are the only person we can entrust."

Selina: [She approached Amanda with the child.] "Please, I want you to promise us. Promise that you will look after him and give him a life that we always wanted for him." She tells her.

She paused for a moment, as she stared at her and looked down at the baby, to which he was simply cooing. Then, she gave her answer.

Amanda: "I will. I promise."

Selina then handed her baby to Amanda, as Owen walked over to them and looked down at his son.

Owen: "Goodbye, my son. Our hopes and dreams will always be with you." He said as he put on his mask.

His wife puts on her mask as well, as tears streamed down her face. They both opened the portal again, and disappeared on the other side. Amanda watches them leave, as this was the last time she'll ever see them. She looked down at Blake, as the poor baby began to cry out for his parents. She sat down on her seat, comforting the child.
