Solicitation:
The Search for Ray Palmer truly kicks into high gear, as Kyle Rayner, Donna Troy and Jason Todd scour the Multiverse for the former Atom, who just might hold the key to saving reality from a crisis of unparalleled proportions. The trio's first stop: the Wildstorm Universe, where they come face-to-face with an entirely different -- and entirely more lethal -- brand of heroes. Wildstorm's finest are all here, including The Authority and Gen13, and they don't prepare a warm welcome for their visitors! The tour of the new DC Multiverse begins here!


SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT!
Synopsis
A team called the Challengers which consists of Donna Troy, Kyle Rayner, Jason Todd, and Bob the Monitor are searching for Ray Palmer, who seems to be the only one who can stop the forthcoming Great Disaster which many have been warning about since Countdown began. They learn that Palmer had left New Earth and started traveling through the Multiverse.

The first Earth they search is Earth-50, where they begin talking to some of the Wildstorm heroes, such as Gen 13, Grifter, Wetworks, and Stormwatch Prime. The Challengers find a speedster named Surge, whom Palmer marked as a way to let them know that he left. Surge is killed by Midnighter, who tells them that Surge had assassinated the Pope, and the four battle The Authority. Majestic intervenes and tells them that they are no threat, and forces The Authority to leave. Donna, Jason, Kyle, and Bob then proceed to check another Earth.

Meanwhile, Grunge and Burnout meet Donna's doppleganger Dark Angel, now a servant for the Monitors, who is trying to find the Challengers and stop them.
