Nearly a year ago The CW’s Arrowverse crossover Elseworlds aired. It introduced Mar Novu, the Monitor, and surprised fans with the revelation of 2019’s crossover. Crisis on Infinite Earths is now only weeks away. In that time we have learned Brandon Routh is suiting up as Superman again and Kevin Conroy is finally giving us a live-action Bruce Wayne.
With only less than 3 weeks until Crisis comes The CW has released synopsis for the first three parts.
Crisis On Infinite Earths Part One begins on Sunday 8th December with an episode of Supergirl. The synopsis is below:
THE KICKOFF TO THE EPIC TELEVISION CROSSOVER EVENT:
The Monitor (guest star LaMonica Garrett) sends Harbinger (guest star Audrey Marie Anderson) to gather the worlds’ greatest heroes – Supergirl, The Flash, Green Arrow, Batwoman, White Canary, The Atom and Superman (guest star Tyler Hoechlin) – in preparation for the impending Crisis. With their worlds in imminent danger, the superheroes suit up for battle while J’onn and Alex recruit Lena to help them find a way to save the people of Earth-38.
The Crisis continues the following night with an episode of Batwoman. The synopsis teases the debut and return of exciting characters:
‘CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS’ CONTINUES WITH SPECIAL GUEST STARS TOM WELLING, ERICA DURANCE, AND KEVIN CONROY:
The group uses Ray’s invention to track new recruits to help save the universe. The Monitor sends Iris, Clark, and Lois (guest star Elizabeth Tulloch) in search of a mysterious Kryptonian, while Kate and Kara head out to find Bruce Wayne (guest star Kevin Conroy). In addition, Mia challenges Sara, Rory discovers a hidden talent, and Lex Luthor (guest star Jon Cryer) returns.
The first half of Crisis On Infinite Earths ends with Part Three on The Flash. After this part, there is a month to wait until the concluding parts of four and five.
BLACK LIGHTNING JOINS THE ARROWVERSE IN THE THIRD CHAPTER OF CRISIS:
Pariah (The Flash‘s Tom Cavanagh) enlists Black Lightning (guest star Cress Williams) to help stop the Anti-Monitor (guest star LaMonica Garrett) after Flash-90 (guest star John Wesley Shipp) shares what he learned from his battle in “Elseworlds.” With the help of Black Lightning, Barry, Cisco and Killer Frost come up with a plan that could save them all. Meanwhile, Iris has a heart-to-heart with Ryan Choi (Legends of Tomorrow newcomer Osric Chau), while Oliver and Diggle return to an old, familiar stomping ground.
Crisis on Infinite Earths is based on the Comic Book story of the same name from Marv Wolfman and George Perez. A cosmic being known as the Anti-Monitor wants to destroy all positive matter, thus destroying every universe in the Multiverse.
Another cosmic being, The Monitor, forces heroes and villains to team-up against the Anti-Monitor and stop the destruction of the Multiverse. It involves tragic deaths, but the adaptation will probably not use the same ones.
