DC K.O. finale triggers the transformation!

DC K.O. turned out to be one heck of a roller coaster ride, and the final issue was worth it!

Warning! Proceed at your own risk! DC K.O #5 Spoilers ahead!

Scott Snyder, Joshua Williamson, Wes Craig, Xermánico, Javier Fernández, and Alejandro Sánchez’s final issue of DC K.O. was ultra-explosive, in fact. We had one of the most powerful beings of the DCU, harnessing a power level equal to or superior to Darkseid in every sense.

DC K.O. had heroes and villains pit against each other for the ultimate power in a giant tournament to decide who will alter reality as they see fit, using the Heart of Apokolips. And it seemed Lex Luthor won, but Supes (as hoped or predicted) took the crown and became not just the strongest in the DC universe, but the most powerful one.

With the help of his ol’ nemesis, Doomsday, Superman gains one more chance to re-enter the tournament after Luthor’s betrayal. Thus, becoming linked to the very foundation of reality, Supes battles the Dark God and absorbs the Big Bang and creates an entire reality that feeds him even more power.

In this new reality, as he creates a perfect future he envisioned, he does something unbelievable. He distributes his power among the heroes and villains of the tournament and rejects omnipotence and the ability to craft his own reality. The Big Blue restores the DCU to its prior form, banishing Darkseid to his Absolute Universe.

Anyway, for the fans, as aforementioned, DC K.O. turned out to be one heck of a roller coaster ride as we saw characters from different comic and movie verses appear. And to make matters sweeter, Superman ended the tournament in the most Supermanish way possible. 

DC K.O. #5 is available now!
