Sand recalls how in 1944 the JSA faced dimension-crossing super-villain Johnny Sorrow and how he, as Sandy, accidentally sent Sorrow into the Subtle Realms. There, Sorrow met the King of Tears, who sent Sorrow back to Earth to pave a way for him to cross over. Thanks to the intervention of the Spectre, however, that plan was thwarted. But in the present, Sorrow successfully brings the King of Tears to Earth, and this time the Spectre is nowhere to be seen.

Though the Spectre reconstitutes himself, he must admit he doesn't have to power to take on the King of Tears. Dr. Mid-Nite and Mr. Terrific hatch a plan to have Black Adam transfer his speed to Flash so he can strike the King of Tears at the speed of light, punching him through the fabric of space-time. The plan works, and as the JSA recovers, Flash finds himself in ancient Egypt staring into some familiar faces.

Borrowing Teth-Adam's speed, Flash returns to the present with the Claw of Horus, just after Hawkgirl has been transported away to Thanagar.

Hawkman saves himself and Hawkgirl from their execution and then helps the rest of the members of the JSA escape their own fates and regroup as a team to take on Onimar Synn. But the villain absorbs all the Nth metal on Thanagar, including the Claw of Horus, and the JSA's direct attacks prove useless. It is only when Hawkman and Hawkgirl unite their spirits to take back control of the Claw of Horus and tear Onimar Synn apart from the inside that the villain is defeated.
