Lot #210: "Countdown to Final Crisis #10" Comic Book -- Feb 20, 2008 DC

"Countdown to Final Crisis #10" is a high-volume weekly modern-age superhero comic book published by DC Comics on February 20, 2008. Written by Paul Dini with interior art by Scott Kolinas, this issue serves as a critical turning point in the weekly series leading into the Final Crisis event. The story, titled "The Gods Must Be Crazy," follows the Challengers from Beyond—Donna Troy, Jason Todd, and Kyle Rayner—as they witness the apocalyptic destruction of Earth-51 at the hands of Monarch and his army. In this chapter, the cosmic tension reaches a breaking point as Ray Palmer (the Atom) is finally located, and the villainous Mary Marvel fully embraces her dark powers under the tutelage of Darkseid's elite, further destabilizing the fragile balance of the Multiverse. As the series neared its conclusion (counting down toward issue #1), this installment was noted for its high-stakes character deaths and the return of Dan Jurgens to a major DC cosmic title.
