I do like the idea of J'Onn J'Onzz being the one hero to make it out of the Trinity War to fight on Earth-1. Well, him and his latest K'hymm proxy, Stargirl.

Vibe is stuck in another dimension, where he must stop an alien invasion of Earth and rescue his brother—who is busy trying to kill Vibe! No problem, right?
It did! It did get better! I've read up to #5, and even though I have no clue how the book could possibly fit into the Trinity War timeline, it's entertaining. It's also selling about 12,000 copies, so next month should be a lock on final issue. Hope they wrap the story arc, at least! Is that Gypsy returned on the cover?

J'Onn is a survivor and I think that having a surrogate daughter is a step in building a family for him. Maybe Vibe and Gypsy can appear with him, as it sounds like Vibe's comic may be over soon.
