One of the few comic books I had to double back on a few times to understand the stories... and even then I'm still not sure I understood them.
Beautiful art. Great themes and deep cuts I only understood after going on Reddit to figure out what the hell was going on.
If you've read Final Crisis, then you're familiar with the story. Mega-threat threatens all the things. Hope wins the day. Until the next time. At some points confusing, at some points frustrating, in the end, it's actually an amazing trip through the imagination, opening up the potential to a lot of stories some of us have been wanting to see for decades. It's neat and it's not afraid to just tell you to stick around for ride, no matter how you might feel about one segment or the other. So, if I'm to leave you with any impression, it should be two things: be willing to read it to the end; then be willing to read it through again. It's worth it, just to notice things you might not have spotted at the beginning.
