In an alternative universe, a devastating personal tragedy strikes the heart of superhero icon Superman, sending him on a path of extreme rage and dictating his grim resolve to impose his own version of justice on the world. Overcome with grief, he decides that the only way to ensure peace on Earth is to take control and rule with an iron fist. This drastic shift in Superman’s morals creates a divide among the Justice League members and the global population as a whole, with many fearing the consequences of unchecked power, despite their once unwavering faith in the Man of Steel.

As Superman’s regime gains momentum, Batman stands as the leader of the opposition, the Insurgency, gathering allies from both superhuman and human circles, including some unlikely and reluctant participants. This ideological and physical clash between former allies sparks a deeply polarizing war among former comrades, with far-reaching implications for the very fabric of justice and liberty. Lines are drawn, and the Justice League finds itself fractured in a battle that questions the nature of heroism and the limits of vigilantism in a world where the traditional barriers between right and wrong are irrevocably blurred.
