Synopsis for "Escalation"
Apokolips is at war with Earth and President Luthor is trapped inside the White House with no outside communications. On Apokolips, Grayven and Darkseid are interrupted by Superman, whom Darkseid thought was dead. It seems the Man of Steel was saved by his connection to Kismet, which took him briefly outside the universe in some way.
As Superman battles Darkseid, Lex Luthor is visited by his daughter Lena, who reveals her allegiance to Brainiac 13. Luthor is not pleased to learn that he has been strung along and betrayed by her and so he makes a new alliance of his own, with Zod and his people, promising to make Pokolistan a world power. Meanwhile, Darkseid and Superman realize that the true aggressors at the moment are Warworld. Grayven has been working with Brainiac 13 who plans to destroy both Apokolips and Earth; after Darkseid does away with his wayward son, he and Superman agree to fight their true enemy...to the death.
