But from the information he received from the spies in Nova Empire was that Earth now has finally spread its wings and has reached space. He really wanted to go and cleanse the Earth, as that was his main mission but he knew even if he tried he would fail now.
All the knowledge of the Negative Zone was gone. And since he didn't trust anybody he didn't even speak of this to his subordinates. Now all his wishes of cleansing the earth and then the universe was in ashes and he needed to find another way to complete his mission.
His options looked bleak as he really didn't know how to proceed now.

In the middle of June the last DC movie was finally out, and like always all the people came for the movie including the new members like Ichigo, Yoruichi who had become a cat and sat like a queen on the shoulder of Barry. Barry loved pets and he was the only member of the Avengers who had all 6 Pokemons. His super speed allowed him to take care of everyone while also doing his work.
Yoruichi was impressed by this so she suggested that she should be flatmates with him, which he easily accepted. So Yoruichi's life had become lazy now as she would always turn into a cat and Barry would just take care of him.
John was surprised by this weird turn out but he didn't care. All had their own lives and trajectory and were free to do whatever he wanted until he needed something from them.
They all came to the premiere and after loads of interviews by John they were finally able to go in and watch the movie.
The movie started with the famous lines from flashpoint.
"Accept the things...."
People were surprised that the movie started a bit dark because according to people flashpoint was the darkest movie of DC and that sentence from that movie already established the fact that this movie too won't be a good one.
The movie started with Constantine and Z having a talk at bed only to be called by the Justice League later. There they got to know that Superman was thinking of taking the fight to Darkseid instead of always defending.
Darkseid had become a genocidal maniac as he had attacked Old Genesis and killed the old gods. And Earth was the last line of defence. Though everybody didn't like the new idea of Clark but all agreed to be on board with this new plan.
All discussed this plan openly but little did they know all their plans were being projected to Darkseid from the eyes of Cyborg. their plan was doomed from the get go.
Yes, the movie was Justice League - Apokolips War. The animated version here was the live action version. For this movie John invited the Russo brothers to direct as they would be perfect people to handle such a huge project and he wanted to pull the curtain to DC with a bang.
Though DC movies would still be made as he had decided that DC would follow some of the famous comic storylines and make them movies, but he would not be involved in it any more.
"You have got guts to take the fight to him." Banner said as he looked at Clark.
"And that was my greatest mistake." Clark said in a very sad tone.
Soon they understood why it was a mistake. A grand mistake at that. People died. Aquaman, Hal and many died. Clark was given a liquid form of kryptonite so he lost all his superman powers. Batman sat at the Mobius Chair (becoming immensely knowledgeable) and was controlled by Darkseid. Others were either killed or captured.
And then it started. The nightmare of humanity. No, it was their destruction.
The whole world was upside down like it happened at flashpoint. Only this time it was because of Darkseid. Finally, Clark came with Raven to meet Constantine. Constantine was the only person who was perfectly fine.
It was because he ran away from the battlefield. They finally hatched a plan of bringing Damian Wayne to bring Bruce away from Darkseid by invoking his fatherly feelings for him.
"This story has gone from bad to worse. So much bloodshed again. I thought only flashpoint had bad endings. I was wrong." Tony said.
The movie continued as Lois Lane came up with a plan to hijack the communication tower which was under Lex Luthor and use it to reverse the boom tube and decimating Apokolips with it.
But the problem was there were very few people to execute the plan, so they had to get help from famous villains too who the people had seen in Justice League Unlimited series.
And thus the whole plan started to push back came into action
