The Multiverse is guarded by a CosmicEntity called the Monitor, whose powers are related to positive matter. But his EvilTwin, the Anti-Monitor, who guards (naturally) the Anti-Matter Universe, has discovered that his powers can increase if he destroys positive-matter universes, and proceeds to destroy the entire Multiverse. Trying to stop him, the Monitor is pushed back and knocked into a coma. When he wakes up, the Monitor sees that the multiverse has been cut down to just the universes we've seen before. Panicking, he gathers a group of heroes from the Earths of the remaining universes, and sends them to hold back the Anti-Monitor's minions.

He also decided to not have the "real" Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman appear for a few issues, to further reinforce those deaths and suggest that the DCU would need more than just them to handle this new threat.
