After a quick origin recap of our world's finest heroes, a new, improved Metallo has come on his birthday to attack both Metropolis and Gotham, bringing the guardians of each city together for a monumental battle! Plus, Lex Luthor assembles a mysterious super-team assigned to "help" the Man of Steel.
The art by Ed McGuiness is fantastic. I really enjoyed the first few pages showing the origins of Batman and Superman. There is a nice compare/contrast going on between the two heroes. I wasn't impressed by Metallo, but I was not familiar with the character going in. There just wasn't enough development for my tastes, but the short format (only 26 pages) doesn't allow for a whole lot.
The final scene of Lex Luthor's super-team gives some hints of who is involved. It is definitely a hook to get people to come back for more.
