Issue #1 was prophecy after Darkseid's passing - the coming of " .. the last avatar.. on [the great steed's] hooves shall follow the reckoning of all " - and charges - Highfather of New Genesis tasking Orion to kill that recently born avatar, and Orion tasking Scott Free to hide that child from him.

Issue #2 opened on the " new hand of darkness " Metron'd related to Highfather - introduced them, emboldened by Darkseid no longer being, as their own thing.

In their own context, they and a leader of theirs were rendered with different art - shown as shadowy menace in #1, they were exposed matter-of-factly in #2.

( Their leader had the focus. )

Rick Veitch assumes writing duties in a Kirby homage (by way of Jorge Luis Borges) co-starring Metron and Darkseid, and sneaks in a preview of his own run on the title.

"And as much work as we're doing with the New Gods now, spending all the time with the characters, it will be a shame to think this is the last time we're ever going to see them. We're tying together two of the huge, sprawling, hallmark mythologies of the DCU — the Green Lantern mythology and the New Gods mythology — and after we've done that, those two are forever linked in some way." - Robert Venditti

"That’s what it’s all about. Basically they’re both good guys, the New Gods are looking at the Universe from the top down, and the Green Lanterns are looking from the bottom up as the cop on the beat. Who’s right and who’s wrong? They both think they’re right from their own perspective." - Robert Venditti

Geoff Johns:"Darkseid is almost an idea. We want to elevate him in that way. He's not a guy to me who runs around and smashes walls and gets in giant fights. He's very strategic and very restrained. If he lifts a finger, a city is destroyed. He's just ultra-powerful, both physically and psychologically. So the way we're playing Darkseid is that he's very methodical and very confident. He's sure of himself in what he believes is the right state of existence for everything and every being. It's all about him and his will. We'll play with that a lot.

And then with Anti-Monitor, you'll see in the prologue in issue #40 that we'll start to peel back some layers on who he is. It's a very different take, and he's different than what you see on the surface. He looks like a universe-eater -- this big force of anti-matter that's very bombastic. But there's actually a lot more to the character than that. We're playing into that idea, and there will be this clash of ideals between Anti-Monitor and Darkseid that will take this much deeper than a simple revenge story or a simple "Let's destroy the universe" story. They both have very personal goals and very personal stakes in this war, and they'll do anything to achieve them."

3 pages from The Spectre Vol. 4 #19 by John Ostrander and Norm Breyfogle. I wasn't really a fan of the Hal Jodan Spectre series but it did give us this awesome Darkseid moment.
