The four of them reach their destination: The Tower, after leaving the train and walking out from the elevator shaft. At the base, they saw The Life Equation Finders, led by Wonder Woman, Bruce's wife.

The four ran toward them.

"Diana..." whispered Bruce. "Cassie... Damian..."

"Mr. Wayne! Aren't those your wife and kids?" asked Peter.

"Parker, I think we should just shut up," said Wade. "This is a very emotional moment and I'm sick and tired of all these studios brushing of Bruce as an inhumane monster."

"In my experience, Bruce broke my spine once," smiled Harley. "He threw me down a window and I fell on an 18-wheeler."

"Damn it, Harley!" shouted Wade. "Superheroes have feelings, too! Goddamn it, Joss Whedon! Damn you!!!"

Bruce hugs his family as the others reach the Finders.

"Whoa, Quill! Billy! Matt!" smiled Peter, as he hugged each of them. "Thor! Frank! Barry!"

Each of them smiles at Peter.

"Great," sighed Frank, meeting Wade. "What the hell are you doing here?"

"Joining your little club to protect the Anti-Life Equation!" smiled Wade. "Keeping it away from Black Thanos."

Wade does the sign of the cross. "God bless Thanos."

Eobard happily eats a sausage in a suburban dining room. A father, a mother, and two children, a boy and a girl have been killed in the universe in the dining room. All of their hearts have been torn out as blood was shown to have been splattered everywhere. Their eyes were left coldly opened and dead.

Eobard calmly eats a sausage made of pork, pork belly, and pig brains. It has a strong fatty smell as he takes small bites of it and small sips of his wine.

A portal opens from behind him as Doom slowly walked out of it.

"Darkseid calls unto you," said Doom.

"Hello, Doctor Doom," spoke Eobard.

Eobard sips the wine softly and sighs happily. "Bergenwursts... Quite a popular meal on another Universe Darkseid destroyed. Earth X."

Eobard sighs in relief.

Doctor Doom stares at Eobard with a sharp expression.

Eobard chuckles.

"Do you know what it's like to have lived 50,000 Goddamned years in the Negative Speed Force using it as a bombshell each time an attacker came on to try and destroy our Multiverse? It's tiring, you know? Alas, I could always go back in time and change history and make this universe the way I want IT!!!" shouted Eobard. "I could go back in time and do something as simple as change one little part of your Earth's history and fucking erase you like the Goddamned joke you are!"

"Had a bad day?" asked Doom, as Eobard sat back on his chair, panting loudly.

"I was beaten to near-death by a Stand-User," said Doom, bowing his head.

"Ah, I see," said Doom. "He's a version of Kujo Jotaro, I heard."

"Yes... The Bootleg Filipino one!" shouted Eobard.

Meanwhile...

"I heard that you, Bruce Wayne, are amongst the finest on your Earth," said Thor, smiling charmingly as Bruce silently looked forward with a sharp expression. "I doubt that this Batman can do anything to stop me, Thor, however. We've never formally fought in the war, have we?"
