I liked this but on my second reading a couple of things popped up to bug me.
1. No copycats. You've apparently got Superman, Batman, WOnder Woman, Supergirl and Robin as costumed heroes. And no one else. Okay, maybe the Supers and Wonder Woman are hard to dupe but, no Dr. Midnites, no Crimson Avengers, No Green Arrows? They inspired no one at the time?
2. They didn't win. Steppenwulf is still alive and they've already said they can Boom Tube in new control towers and parademons. Now all the heroes are dead or lost. Darkseid may have been looking for something in these particular attacks, but he's obviously sticking around to conquer.
What about this particular fight inspried the Apokalips forces to retreat?

Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
