Here's a line from the product description: "A thematic merging of The Lord of the Rings and Watchmen, The End League follows...". It is a lie.
Here's a more appropriate description: "What if a Marvel Event Comic changed all the names of the characters so that it could have a grim ending that we can market as being similar to Watchmen?"
See that, no mention of Lord of the Rings. because there is Nothing to compare it to. And the Watchmen comparison does this story no favors.
That said, there is something important that I discovered in this comic. All the hate for Marvel or DC events and the superhero stories that they rehash over and over again should be reconsidered. What this story does, if anything, is prove how important it is to have characters defined by fandom and decades of comic book stories to make a big Justice League/Avengers event work. Instead, Remender provides us with analogs of famous heroes but twists them so much that we can't be sure if it's the Marvel one or the DC one he's put in peril.
I would recommend this to comic book writers. I think they should see something that can fail. Something that won't connect because it is everything wrong with the Big Two's event stories but missing everything that works by having Batman, Superman, Captain America, Thor, Wonder Woman, Flash, Hulk, and the Joker as characters already ingrained in the reader's mind in these epic battles.
Again, this is pretty shocking because Remender has always excelled in Character development. I'm sure this was meant to be some kind of statement against the Big Two, but that didn't make it worth my time to read it.
