Well, this was better than [b:Justice League: Trinity War|18248520|Justice League Trinity War|Geoff Johns|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1391572228s/18248520.jpg|25701336], which isn't really saying much, and reminded me ever so slightly of [b:Villains by Necessity|401454|Villains by Necessity|Eve Forward|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1335913626s/401454.jpg|390862] where it's up to the bad guys to save the day - but for differing reasons.
The highlight of this was probably the depth it added to Lex Luthor's character, and it was interesting to see the Rogues working together. I got the impression there are a lot of tie-in stories because we got introduced to a bunch of people who never get used in this main arc, and I'm probably not going to be bothered to follow those various tie-ins.
The biggest gripe about it is that it's yet another set-up for the next Big Event - Darkseid. I guess that's the problem with serials, though I have read other serials which did have some freaking conclusions to arcs instead of just a constant lead-in to the next. Meh.
