Spinning out of the pages of Batman vs. Robin comes an event that changes the DCU forever...Lazarus Planet! The Lazarus volcano has erupted, releasing clouds of its unique lava into the atmosphere and causing bizarre and dangerous rainstorms all over the world. Those who survive exposure to the storms are transformed: those without superpowers gain powers, and those who had powers before--including some of the DC Universe's heaviest hitters--find their abilities amplified or changed in unexpected ways...or both!
