Infinite Crisis: Fight for the Multiverse #32 is a chapter in the digital-first series Infinite Crisis: Fight for the Multiverse (Volume 1 (Digital)) with a cover date of January, 2015.
Synopsis for "Chapter Thirty Two"
The Monitor arrives on Earth-19 after being summoned by Atomic Wonder Woman and describes the Earth of the universe as an important as well as ambitious world, but regrets it was where the Harbinger died. Wonder Woman states that they all still feel the loss, before Uotan learns that she has brought in both old and new allies, due to the threat of the Infinite Crisis still hanging above the universe. Noticing the Superman of Earth-0 and Hawkgirl of Earth-19, he comments that they show great promise and he has watched them since birth. Shayera thinks of this as creepy and as Monitor gets offended by what she's implying, Wonder Woman states she meant no offense.
The Monitor then gets taken to see the Earth Engine and struggles to understand the bizarre contraption, before figuring out that it consists of both magic and technology, while being built with Monitor technology. Uotan suspects Luthor of Earth-19, who insists he had no hand and it was designed by stealing his ideas. Superman vouches for Lex, stating he doesn't believe he was behind it, despite his mistrust of him. The Monitor decides to move on to learning more about the device from the heroes, being told by Batman that it's meant to create mind-controlled armies, in order to fight the Monitor himself. He also states that they have been placed on multiple Earths but lie inactive, which means they are all meant to be activated together.
Monitor believes Batman is correct and that there must be a single artifact to start them. He also agrees with Wonder Woman and Gaslight Catwoman's idea to recruit heroes across the multiverse in order to find it, before deciding to disable the Earth Engine. Lex however warns him against it, stating it's been set up to drive everyone mad in order to prevent any tampering. Uotan however decides that it must be disabled regardless, but as he proceeds with it, an energy wave strikes everyone and incapacitates him. As the others struggle under the Earth Engine's effect, the Arcane Green Lantern tries to envelop it in a force field to keep its energies at bay. Superman of Earth-0 decides to take the Monitor someplace safer, but the Mecha Superman informs that the world is going mad.
As the Lantern struggles to form a field around the Earth Engine, the heroes try awaking the Monitor up and ask him what to do now. He however lashes out in fury and tells them that they can all die.
