Synopsis for "Life vs. Anti-Life!"

The Forever People are confronted by the menace of Glorious Godfrey, one of Darkseid's lieutenants, an evangelist who preaches the concept of anti-life and recruits people to become fanatical "Justifiers" who destroy and kill on command. The five young New Genesites unite to battle Godfrey as the Infinity Man, but Darkseid appears, banishes the Infinity Man, restores the Forever People, and delivers them as captives to DeSaad.
