Infinite Crisis 2005 #4 Direct Sales - Jim Lee / Sandra Hope Cover - back issue - $4.00

Alex's plans to restore the original multiverse are almost completed as he recreates the Monitor's tuning fork using the dead Anti-Monitor's armor as part of it. He also uses certain heroes as part of the tuning fork, since they have inside of them the unique pre-Crisis vibrational frequencies of the original five surviving earths (1,2,4,S,X), as others have possible frequencies of other earths that either existed (6), or would have (8) if the original Crisis hadn't happened.
