The X-Pit is the main prison of Apokolips. Standing several levels up and sprawling into a maze-like labyrinth, the Pit is lined with human prisoners, traps, and various torture devices. Scott Free was the only known person to escape it after multiple attempts. Some time after Free left, the architecture of the X-Pit was changed. In the midst of civil war, Virman Vunderbarr occupied the X-Pit and imprisoned Kalibak. Intent on brainwashing Kalibak and earning the legitimate endorsement of the heir to Darkseid's throne, Vunderbarr was on the path to consolidating power.
Granny Goodness, his rival, blackmailed Mr. Miracle and Big Barda into extracting Kalibak from the Pit. Despite being denied aid from the Justice League Unlimited, the duo was helped by the Flash. They encountered robot guards, flame throwers, trap doors, and water traps but Mr. Miracle navigated the Pit and led everyone to safety. Refusing to admit defeat, Vunderbarr activated a self-destruct mechanism and the X-Pit imploded.
