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. )
