During 2021, Williamson wrote the titular miniseries in theDC Infinite Frontier initiative.[6] FollowingInfinite Frontier, Williamson wrote a sequel series,Justice League Incarnate, alongside Denis Culver.[7] This 5 issue title followed the team Justice Incarnate, picking up from not only Infinite Frontier, but using plot-points and elements fromGrant Morrison'sMultiversity.
As a part of Infinite Frontier, Williamson began a new volume ofRobin followingDamian Wayne along withDeathstroke Inc.[8][9] FollowingJames Tynion IV's departure fromBatman, Williamson took over on #118 joined by artist Jorge Molina.

Williamson stated that "We want people to understand, this is serious and this is gonna have a major impact in the DCU moving forward." And ". . . how this is the last issue ofJustice League. But then three months later, there's still not gonna be aJustice League comic. It's gonna be a while, and that's gonna be a major part of what the DCU looks like after this story: There is no Justice League."[12]
In February 2022, DC announcedDark Crisis. The 7 issue event series written by Williamson with art by Daniel Sampere. Dark Crisis was a continuation and a finale to the story he was building from the start of Infinite Frontier.[13] At 2022 San Diego Comic-Con, the full title of the event was revealed to beDark Crisis on Infinite Earths, to signify how it was a direct sequel to the 1985 event,Crisis on Infinite Earths.[14]
