Plot

 * A flashback sequence is shown of Darkseid of Apokolips (who was introduced in The Justice League II and further fleshed out in Superman: Man of Tomorrow) banishing his son, Scott Free, for being disloyal to him. Little did he know that Scott took elements of the Anti-Life Equation with him. Scott landed on Earth and disguised himself as an acrobat.
 * Darkseid, who is desperately searching for the final clues to the Anti-Life Equation, learns from his lieutenants, Maxima and Grayven, that Scott Free has the missing elements, and is on Earth. Darkseid is surprised he is there, but has wanted to destroy Earth after learning of the planet's potential superhuman resistance via Brainiac's data from The Justice League II. Apokolips Resistance Spy and Darkseid enemy Himon learns of Darkseid's discovery, and warns Scott Free via the Boom Tube.
 * Maxima leads an army of parademons to nearly destroy Themyscria. Meanwhile, Grayven nearly destroys Atlantis. This occurs despite the valiant efforts of Wonder Woman and Aquaman, respectively. Darkseid takes over the airwaves and claims that Earth will be destroyed unless Scott Free is given up. He really will destroy Earth regardless, and Wonder Woman suspects this.
 * The Justice League (Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, The Flash, Hal Jordan, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl and Cyborg) discuss what to do and there are disagreements. The Flash, Hawkgirl and Superman decide it is best to give Darkseid Scott Free. Wonder Woman is against it. An internal fight ensues and the Justice League disbands.
 * Superman hands over Scott Free to Maxima. Shortly thereafter, Batman shows Superman proof that Darkseid is planning to destroy Earth regardless. Superman then goes back to Maxima and the parademons to free Scott, but is overwhelmed and taken prisoner.
 * The Justice League hears of Superman's disappearance and Wonder Woman calls the league to return. She makes a passionate speech to save Superman and protect Earth from the inevitable arrival of Darkseid. She calls on the League to bring together allies to defend Earth, since the Universe is at stake if Darkseid gets the Anti-Life Equation. They contact as many as they can. Just thereafter, a massive earthquake occurs. Darkseid has arrived.
 * Meanwhile, Superman and Scott Free escape. Superman goes to the Sun to enhance his powers using the Photonucleic Effect.
 * The Earthquake destroys the Hall of Justice, and Darkseid fights and injures Wonder Woman.
 * Batman tries to take down Darkseid, but after a hearty fight, Darkseid kills him, which devastates Wonder Woman. Superman arrives and sees this. He is furious and unleashes his full power and beats up Darkseid. Darkseid is able to escape by showing him some Kryptonite.
 * Superman returns to the ruins of the Hall of Justice, where forces from across the Universe have gathered to battle Darkseid. These include the Green Lantern Corps, Amazons, Atlanteans, Thanagar warriors, Shazam, Black Adam, Donna Troy, he Suicide Squad, Nightwing, Catwoman and White Martians.
 * The epic battle ends after Darkseid is destroyed. Casualties include Hal Jordan, Maxima, Grayven, and Mera.
