Justice League of America
Justice League of America [Atom [Ray Palmer]; Batman [Bruce Wayne]; Green Lantern [Hal Jordan]; Hawkman [Katar Hol; Carter Hall]; Superman [Clark Kent; Kal-El] (all Earth-1)]; Justice Society of America [Black Canary [Dinah Drake Lance]; Dr. Fate [Kent Nelson; Nabu]; Dr. Mid-Nite [Charles McNider]; Green Lantern [Alan Scott]; Starman [Ted Knight]; Superman [Clark Kent; Kal-L] (intro); Wonder Woman [Diana Prince Trevor]; Red Tornado [John Smith]; Larry Lance (all Earth-2); Council of Living Stars (cameo); Aquarius (villain)
Starman relays his story to the JSA of a new menace, Aquarius, a stellar being who had been disincorporated after his evil acts, and sensing Starman's Cosmic Rod's energies, steals the rod from him to reincorporate himself. After nearly being defeated by the JSA, Aquarius uses the rod to blink Earth-2 out of existence, but not before several members protect themselves in an energy bubble using Fate's magicks and GL's ring's mystic energies. Red Tornado, meanwhile, has been sent to Earth-1 to the JLA to get help battling Aquarius. To be continued...
