Heroes and monsters collide in the crossover event of the year! The cataclysmic crossover event of the year is here as the DC Universe clashes with Legendary’s Monsterverse in Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong. Clark Kent is enjoying a night off with a very important dinner planned with his girlfriend, Lois Lane, when the entire city shudders under the weight of the monstrous Godzilla, who emerges from the bay! What started as a routine clash between the Justice League and the Legion of Doom takes a dangerous turn when the wall between worlds is breached… with Godzilla, Kong, and the Monsterverse emerging on DC’s Earth! What ensues will be a brawl of unprecedented scale and destruction.

I know how to take Superman and the Justice League off the board forever –Lex Luthor. How do you destroy the Justice League? The question has been plaguing Lex Luthor and his Legion of Doom since the two titanic groups first came to blows. When confronted with the colossal entities of Skull Island, Lex believes he’s found the answer to their eternal question. It’s Superman vs. Godzilla, Wonder Woman vs. Behemoth, Green Lantern vs. Scylla, Batman vs. Camazotz, and Supergirl vs. Kong in this all-out battle for the fate of the DC Universe. Can Superman stand up to the power of Godzilla? Can Lex Luthor harness the primal forces of Skull Island? It’s time to find out the answers to these questions and more in the cataclysmic crossover event of the year as the DC Universe clashes with Legendary’s MonsterVerse.

Story/Spoilers:
In issue #1, Clark and Lois are having a romantic dinner at the helipad of the Daily Planet and discussing about the first time they met. He is ready to propose to her but, suddenly, Godzilla arrives at Metropolis. Twelve hours ago, at the Hall of Justice, Hal and Barry were overseeing Superman’s activities all over the world. Hal is impressed by how much work Superman can do in a single day, but Barry says that Superman can’t do everything by himself and Barry knows that because there is just not enough time, even for someone as fast as himself. Supergirl tells them that Clark will propose to Lois and they will go on their very first vacation together and she will be filling in for him. One of the Watchtower’s monitors depicts Superman about to fight Titano and the Flash thinks Superman could use some help, so he rushes out to meet him but when he arrives at the scene, he finds that Superman has already defeated his opponent. Accompanying Superman on his way to take Titano to Stryker’s Island, Flash congratulates his friend for taking the big step with Lois and admits that he hasn’t told his secret identity to Iris, but Superman says that Barry will soon take that big step with Iris, as well. The heroes arrive at Stryker’s and are greeted by Green Lantern and Wonder Woman, who also congratulate Superman from his decision.

Meanwhile, at their secret base, the Legion of Doom watches as Titano is taken to Stryker’s and begin to discuss yet another plan to destroy the Justice League. Black Manta believes that, with their combined resources, intellect and power, they could easily destroy their enemies, but Cheetah says that some of the members of the Legion don’t even like each other and the Justice League keeps beating them because they’re such “super friends”. Grodd says that they don’t need to like each other, they just need a good opportunity and strategic superiority. Luckily for them, Lex already has a plan. Titano was simply a distraction. The Legion’s real objective lies in the Arctic. They go to the Fortress of Solitude. It took Lex 3 years to discover the Fortress and its only measure of security is Kelex, a robot tasked with maintaining and operating the Fortress in Superman’s absence. Manta quickly incapacitates the robot, allowing the Legion access to the Fortess. As the Legion ventures deep into the Fortress, Toyman is in awe of the toys and devices Superman has collected over the years, but Lex tells everyone not to get distracted, for they are here for two things: the Mother Box and Orion’s sled. Lex wants to use them to trap the Justice League in the Phantom Zone. The objects within the Fortress are sealed within special cases wired with an ultrasonic alarm that presumably only Superman can hear. Unfortunately, in his obsession to grab a red gem stashed in one of the cases, Toyman has already triggered an alarm. Meanwhile, Clark gets a visit from Bruce at his apartment. Clark shows Bruce the ring he plans to propose to Lois with. He didn’t make it. He only financed it. Clark asks Bruce why did he come here and Bruce asks whether bringing Lois into his life is a good idea. If Clark does marry Lois, he will be putting a target on her back. Clark reassures Bruce that he can protect her the same way he protects everyone and nothing in his life is gonna change. Suddenly, Clark hears the alarm from the Fortress and wants to go, but Bruce has already called the Justice League. Supergirl, alongside Flash, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman and Hawkgirl, answers the call and wishes his cousin good luck for tonight. A fight begins and Lex tells the Legion to keep the heroes distracted while he programs the Mother Box. Toyman attempts to distract the heroes with an explosive doll, but Hawkgirl defects it with her mace. The explosion hits the Mother Box, which opens up a portal that consumes the Legion, while Green Lantern protects his friends with a force field.

The portal dumps the Legion into a secluded jungle, far away from the Fotress or any form of civilization. Cheetah is angry that Toyman’s ineptitude got them into this mess, but Lex believes they should focus their energies on planning how to return home. Giganta increases her size and observes a large structure nearby, thinking they can use it to discover where they are. As the Legion walks through the jungle, they are attacked by a Skullcrawler, which is suddenly incapacitated by Kong, the sight of whom impresses Grodd, who calls him an “ape god”. He tries to communicated with Kong, who offers no answer. The Legion enters the facility, discovering it to be some kind of command center. Lex and Manta survey some of the maps depicted in the base’s monitors and discover that the Mother Box teleported them into a universe similar to their own, except for one difference. This Earth has a land mass designated as “Skull Island”. The base also contains pictures and information about giant monsters, similar to Kong. These “Titans”, as Toyman calls them, would be perfect weapons for the Legion to use against the Justice League, but the other members of the Legion, especially Lex, have no patience for Toyman’s antics. Angry, Toyman says he wishes he could take his new “toys” back home so he can play with the Justice, and the red gem he is holding suddenly answers to his wish. A red light envelops the base. Back in Metropolis, Clark walks up to Lois’ cubicle and asks her to meet her at the helipad, where he has already prepared a table with dinner for both of them. As the date progresses, Clark gets ready to propose to Lois, only to be interupted by Godzilla’s arrival. In the present, Superman flies into action and confronts Godzilla.
