Millions of years ago, GodWorld, a world in a different dimension than Earth's, was inhabited by a glorious race of beings who are known as the Old Gods. This notable race finally met its end in a great war that ended with the release of an indescribable amount of power, known as the GodWave. The catastrophe created two new planets that became known as Apokolips and New Genesis. Over the ages, these worlds cooled from a molten state, and somehow, at least on New Genesis, some of the ruins of cities of the Old Gods survived.
