Five year’s ago….
It all started with the Joker killing Jonathan Crane (aka Scarecrow), stealing his signature, fear toxin and dumping his body in S.T.A.R. Labs. At the Labs, he murders several scientists who had been experimenting on Kryptonite and steals their samples in preparation for a grand scheme. Escaping from the labs Joker lures Lois Lane-Kent and Jimmy to the Metropolis docks with a false tip-off of a juicy story. While the two are distracted by a disguised Harley Quinn, Joker kills Jimmy by shooting him through his camera lens. He happily greets a terrified Lois, as he and Harley ditch their disguises. He then hijacks a nuclear submarine that he takes far out into the open sea with his lackey and their hostage.
Performing an operation on Lois as the Man of Steel bursts into the sub. Before Superman can do anything, the Joker gassed him with a Kryptonite-laced version of the Scarecrow's fear toxin. As Superman tries to regain his wits, he suddenly sees Doomsday before him and tackles the monster into the sky. Before the psychopathic couple could escape their caught by the rest of the Justice League.
Joker reveals that he performed an operation on Lois to turn her into a "trigger" - more specifically, the trigger to the submarine's nuclear warhead, which is now in the center of Metropolis and ready to detonate the moment Lois' heartbeat stops.
With none of the heroes able to warn Superman in time to avert the Joker's plan, the Clown Prince of Crime offhandedly comments that he discovered that Lois was pregnant while operating on her. This remark gets him punched in the face by Batman, but the plan goes off without a hitch; Superman unknowingly takes Lois into space, ironically coming to his senses just in time to watch his wife and unborn child suffocate in the vacuum. The Joker and Harley watch in glee as Metropolis is destroyed in a blast of nuclear fire.
In the wake of the horror, the Joker is locked up in Gotham Prison where he taunts Batman. Suddenly taking a philosophical turn, the Joker asks Batman, "What do you think Superman will become?" The Caped Crusader firmly believes Superman will rise from the pain the Joker has inflicted on him - that the Man of Steel is incorruptible - but the Joker laughingly asks, "You honestly think your friend will still be fun to play with?" When Batman insists that Superman will recover, the Joker replies grimly, "No. I think it's going to be a whole lot funnier than that."
Moments later, Superman himself breaks through the wall, shoving Batman aside and grabbing the Joker. Mercilessly taunting Superman about the loss of everything he ever loved, the Clown Prince of Crime's portent comes to pass, as he finally drives Superman past his breaking point. The Joker exhales a final maniacal laugh as Superman impales him through the chest with his entire arm. The colorful criminal dies with a smile on his face while Batman looks on in horror.
While mourning the loss of his family, friends and city, Superman decides to end all wars and violence one way or another. He traveled around the world stopping all wars either by force or fear until every last war had stopped. During his travels he encountered friends as well as enemies, some sided with him either because they agreed with what he was doing or out of fear. Others stood up to him and they were killed, locked up or in Batman’s case broken.
As the years went by Superman’s Regime took control of everything. No longer able to stand by and watch what was going on on earth the Guardians of the Universe sent their Green Lantern army to earth. They were to put a stop to the Tyrant of Steel. During the battle Superman gains a yellow ring of the Sinestro Corps. Using it and the fear of a billion people Superman kills Ganthet and Mogo by pushing them both into the sun. And thus ending the war.
After losing one of their own as well as a number of Green Lantern’s the remanding Guardians of the Universe pooled their powers and began a search to search the multiverse. They wanted to find an earth that held heroes and villains that didn’t exist in their universe. After month’s of searching they finally found it. Using their powers they began to pull people from that universe, bringing them into this one. They hoped these super humans could finally put a stop to the Tyrant of Steel and his Regime.
