DC & Warner Bros' three-part Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths animated series starts airing from early 2024, following the events of 2020's Apokolips War, and John Constantine in the House of Mystery 2022. The show depicts a Multiverse reality in which hundreds of Earths exist in parallel; each Earth has superheroes with the same name, same abilities, but somewhat of different personalities and fates. Upon learning about the existence of the Multiverse, the heroes seek to connect with each other; but that is also the time when they face the truth that the infinite Earths would inevitably perish.

ANTI-MATTER WAVES (PART 1)
The first threat of the Multiverse is an unknown wave that destroy, literally evaporate, all matter it pass through, and the Earths and all their creatures quickly disappear without a trace as the wave arrive. The Flash Barry while on Earth-3 witnesses this wave; and Quick must sacrifice himself to help Barry reach maximum Speed Force to escape this Earth before it is destroyed.
Monitor, an ancient Multiverse being has summoned the most talented superheroes from all over the galaxy to a space station to find a way to deal with antimatter waves; they include Barry, Oliver, Mari, John Stewart/Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Superman, the reincarnated Hawkman, Robin, Batman, Catwoman...
Monitor - just like Marvel's the Watcher character - has existed in the universe for billions of years with the motto of only observing and recording events without interfering. However, when he witnesses his beloved Earths being destroyed one by one, he has to change this motto.
Barry's escape from Earth 3 inspired the Monitor to create vibrating towers on the remaining Earths to withstand the passage of antimatter waves. However, antimatter waves quickly spread before the towers were completed. Only a few dozen Earths survive.
DARK MONSTERS AND ANTI-MONITOR (PART 2)
Surviving Earths continue to experience new, more intense waves of antimatter; Their survival depends entirely on the vibrating towers, but some towers have been damaged or are not provided with enough energy to operate. A few more Earths are destroyed.
Part 2 of the series spends a lot of time on the story of two characters, Psycho Pirate (also known as Charles Halstead) and Supergirl Kara - the only girl who survived (with Superman) after the destruction of planet Krypton.
Psycho Pirate is a villain with the special ability to manipulate other people's minds and control them to act on his will. In the past, he used this ability to control Aquaman's entire legion. Even though knowing that Psycho Pirate is a villain and evil, Monitor still summon him to amplify the optimism and positive energy of people across Earths amid the impending apocalypse. The Monitor even gives the Psycho Pirate a little more power to increase his abilities, without foreseeing the consequences of this action.
The new waves of antimatter, after overflowing, now leave behind millions of invincible dark monsters on the Earths. They come to destroy the towers, despite the superheroes' efforts to fend them off. Finally, the monsters gather their strength to create a giant Anti-Monitor, as big as Marvel's Celestials, with boundless power.
The Psycho Pirate, after being manipulated by the Anti-Monitor into his ambitions for power, secretly sabotage efforts to operate the vibrating Towers, and incites Kara to increase her hatred of the Monitor for his letting her home planet Krypton destroyed without interference. With her mind manipulated, Kara fires a laser beam that kills the Monitor; For his part, Monitor did not resist because he seems willing to accept death so that the energy he had accumulated from the galaxy over billions of years could be released for a sake of good.
JOHN CONSTANTINE AND THE CONSEQUENCES FROM THE WAR OF APOKOLIPS (PART 3)
After his death, the Monitor releasees a large source of energy to form shields that surrounded the remaining Earths, while hiding them from the Anti-Monitor's view. However, the Anti-Monitor still manages to detect the location and tear off these shields to destroy one Earth after another.
The Justice League determines that to destroy the Anti-Monitor, someone must absorb the energy of many different suns and create an explosion inside the Anti-Monitor. Regretting blindly killing the Monitor, Kara decides to take over the task for Superman.
Meanwhile, Batman, Dr Fate and Wonderwoman set out to search for John Constantine to find answers about the origin of this destruction.
To recall, after the war with the planet Apokolips, the Justice League was completely defeated, the Earth was cored by Darkseid for energy, and all creatures on it perished. John's final solution was to cast a dark spell on Barry and asked him run back into the past and kill Darkseid at his first year of age.
However, at that time John and Barry did not know that Darkseid was a pillar of the Universe. Killing Darkseid caused the cosmic order to be reversed, giving rise to the Multiverse phenomenon. More Earths continue to be born, exceeding the galaxy's capacity to carry them. Anti-matter waves or Anti-Monitors are formed as cancer cells to destroy Earths to recreate a new reality. Cancer cells are usually not just one. After the Anti-Monitor was destroyed at the cost of Kara's sacrifice, many new Anti-Monitors appears.
When all hope was lost, the Justice League search for the Miracle Machine as their last hope. Wonderwoman sacrifices her immortal self to activate the machine, and it creates a single Universe with a single Earth and a single Sun.
The Specter reappears and guides everyone to the original Earth, where there is only one history and timeline, before every other Earths in the Multiverse were destroyed.
Welcome to the sole and only Fake Earth!!!
