A lot of changes have been made to the Monitors due to recent events, but I noticed that there is nothing in the Anti-Monitor's profile mentioning the Anti-Life Equation and his use of it in "Darkseid War".
I know "Darkseid War" gave quite a different origin compared to the recent Justice League arc, but I imagine I can bridge the two together:
In Justice League 22, The Anti-Monitor declared that he would find all the knowledge he requires to strike down his brother and the infinite universes of the Positive Matter Multiverse. In "Darkseid War", we were told that Mobius searched the Antimatter Universe for the "source" of its origin. These two points fit together with Mobius searching for the knowledge he needs to kill Mar Novu - at least one piece of that knowledge being the Anti-Life Equation, something he's held onto through Crisis on Infinite Earths, Sinestro Corps War, all the way to the Darkseid War, where we see him use the Anti-Life Equation to enslave Barry to the Black Racer and kill Darkseid.
By the point of Darkseid War, the Anti-Monitor now regrets attaining the Anti-Life Equation, what it turned him into, and seeks to separate himself from it. His plan succeeds by the end of Darkseid War, but he is killed. By the time of the current Justice League arc, he has reformed like his brothers but doesn't want to be found.
