Franklin Richards.

One of the most powerful mutants ever born in the marvel multiverse. IN the actual story after getting help from Owen Reese and the downfall of God Doom, he went on to build the multiverse. Yes, you heard it right!!

The multiverse of marvel in the comics was made by Franklin. Though he needed help from Owen, he did make the multiverse. Brought all of the people who were lost in the collapse of the multiverse and made everything right.

He in-directly was responsible for the birth of all the abstract beings again who had died before after the Beyonders came to bring them down. And John could make the multiverse too, hell many of the people in their group could make it but the thing is only Franklin and Reed had been tasked to look into the multiverse and take necessary data so in the event of collapse they would be in the forefront of the rebuild.

John and others could do it too but it might not be on the previous standards. John might be biassed about the good of the multiverse and tilt the balance. When Franklin made the multiverse again, he even restored Doctor Doom who had died earlier. This was a huge no no for John and thus he might not be the correct candidate. The balance was always important when it came to the grand scale of events.

They got the first impact of it when they killed Darkness. Though the Wall already had cracks, it widened exponentially after Darkness' death.

John didn't want to make that mistake in the new multiverse. But of course John and others will look over the multiverse and see that everything was in order in the world.

All this was hypothetical upto this point and John had to see if this ever happened. He didn't know what would happen once the Wall gets broken but he needed to be ready for any circumstances.

After discussing a little bit more with Reed, John left for his home. Emma was with him in the premiere and he had left her to talk with Reed, so after the meeting with Reed he went with Emma to home.

It was decided earlier that the team which would be sent to the Wall would be decided tomorrow on the general meeting where the logistics for the war and every related war matters would be decided.

The series was a wake up call for many. Though John had hinted that whatever they were expecting from the story, it would be much darker. And John was right. Even Bruce Wayne himself didn't expect how crazy the story of the other side was. He was grateful that he had landed on this multiverse and now had a chance to fight. Or else he would have been buried among the other unknown 52 universes that Perpetua just drowned.

Wayne didn't know what to do at this point so he could only hit the gym and start working out. Of course, the gym was specially made for a Kryptonian. Bruce had to ask help from Nidavellir for some gym equipment made from some of the heaviest metal known to the universe. Alfred just sat near Wayne and looked at him with a deadpan face.

Alfred was also affected by what he had seen on the series. Like Wayne, Wayne's parents meant a lot to him and now he had seen their memories being violated in the most cruel way possible. Everybody was affected by the story and everyone needed a time off. Diana, Clark and Bruce mostly. Hal too had seen in his own eyes how bad the Green Lanterns had fallen.

Hal went to catch criminals in the sector. Diana just went to her home with Steve but later Steve saw her in her shower silently crying. Though she was the hero at the end of the series and they got everything back, they remembered what had happened and that could never be erased.

Like Wayne, she too thought of the other 52 universes which just got obliterated and only the chosen ones remembered what had happened. This was cruel. A part of them was taken away and they could do nothing about it. She felt helpless.

It was Steve who later came and consoled her. Clark went back to work but John had done a very good thing recently. He brought Lois Lane to their universe and thus Clark didn't have to feel lonely anymore. Clark had no love life here so John needed to fix that situation.

Only Bruce was the loneliest person of the team and only had Alfred for his companionship. Tony had even tried to introduce him to some good women but he was unresponsive or rather he would act responsive with the women only to have no feelings for the other person.
