Synopsis
The JLA headquarters is in disarray following the Cadre’s attack and Captain Atom’s group of Leaguers come under heavy fire from the UN’s Leaguebusters. Ice assumes command of the Cadre, and the Overmaster issues a decree that the world will end in one day due to its ability to create superhumans. Blue Beetle realises that this means that the League can put in an all-out assault after all, as even if they were all to sacrifice themselves, the Earth would still be doomed due to its ability to produce superhumans. He is able to halt the brewing confrontation between Captain Atom and Wonder Woman, and proposes a plan.
