STORYLINE: Zero Hour

Zero Hour was released in the summer and fall of 1994. Its purpose was to tie up a lot of loose ends caused by the twelve-part, Crisis On Infinite Earths storyline from the 1980s.

This latest adventure begins as a massive crisis in time is causing Earth’s time-space continuum to go haywire. All of Earth’s super-heroes are called in to help, including the original Justice Society and other older characters. It turns out that Hal Jordan, the Silver-Age Green Lantern, is trying to undo the event that eventually led to his earlier breakdown, the destruction of Coast City. Now, as Parallax, he fights the entire DC hero inventory. As a result of this series, DC’s many Hawkman characters were merged into one. The entire original Justice Society (excluding the Spectre) was killed. Batgirl returned to Gotham, and the original Flash and Green Lantern were retired.

Issue #4 NM- : (#1 in sequence); Death of Time Trapper; Readers of Zero Hour should read this issue first, then work their way backward to number zero.  The universe is being destroyed by an all-consuming force that is working its way from the distant future to the past. Wally West Flash, like Barry Allen before him, tries to stop the crisis, but vanishes in the process. In addition, anomalies, such as Barbara Gordon appearing as Batgirl (despite the fact that Joker paralyzed her years before), begin popping up all over the world.  The Flash's storyline continues in The Flash #0

Issue #3 VF/NM : (#2 in sequence); Death of Atom; Death of Hourman; Remainder of Justice Society of America aged; The universe is unraveling, destruction working its way from the future to the present and from the past to the present, and the heroes of earth gather to form a plan of action. Superman is quickly voted in as leader of the impressive gathering. Anomalies continue.

Issue #2 NM- : (#3 in sequence); Death Doctor Mid-Nite I; Death Hourman I; The universe continues to unravel. Alan Scott and Jay Garrick retire in the wake of the annihilation of fellow Justice Society members. Various heroes battle Extant and a possessed group of Team Titans. 

Issue #1 NM- : (#4 in sequence); 1st Appearance of Jack Knight; 1st Appearance of Parallax; Silver Age Atom de-aged; 1st Appearance of David Knight; The universe continues to unravel through time, destruction working its way to the present. In fact, cities begin to vanish, and futuristic characters such as Impulse and Booster Gold disappear. Jack Garrick appeals to The Spectre for help. Hal Jordan as Parallax - Extant's partner in cosmic crime - reveals his plan to reform and reshape the universe as he sees fit. 

Issue #0 VF/NM : (#5 in sequence); Versus Extant; Contains Zero Hour checklist and new DC timeline foldout; Despite the numbering, this is actually the last issue in this five-part countdown mini-series. The series should be read in reverse order, from four to zero. Various heroes battle the godlike Parallax (Hal Jordan) and his allies in order to prevent him from recreating a new and "improved" universe.
