HISTORY

A hellish planet currently ruled by the evil Darkseid, Apokolips is the dark flip-side of the bright New Genesis. Good and pleasant things find it hard to survive on this planet, which has very few green plants growing on its surface, which is mostly covered with burnt-out craters and industrial centres where the 'Hunger Dogs' slave away for their cruel master.
