That first panel above (from Star Brand) is accurate, and that panel at the top of the Justice page is not: Ken Connell was hovering above the earth when he set off the Star Brand, and therefore the hole named "The Pitt" that destroys Pittsburgh is actually the lower part of the energy sphere. Well, here, check it out in your Official Handbook of the New Universe:

If you far enough away around the surface of the Earth, the energy sphere could be occluded to look like that in the Justice panel (at least that's how I interpreted it). Not having the book, if the POV is supposed to be just outside Pittsburgh, then that would indeed be a mistake.
Good point, Delta! I'll have to re-read Justice to see where it takes place.

Naw, that would mean I would have to re-read Justice.
