Subject Matter
superhero
Superman [Clark Kent]; Batman [Bruce Wayne]; Lois Lane; Martian Manhunter [J'onn J'onzz]; Green Lantern [Alan Scott] (cameo); Captain Marvel [Billy Batson] (cameo); Green Lantern [John Stewart]; Flash [Wally West]; Hawkman [Carter Hall]; Black Canary [Dinah Laurel Lance]; Kelly (cameo); Darkseid (mind duplicate); Glorious Godfrey (mind duplicate); Granny Goodness (mind duplicate); Wonder Woman (cameo); Congressman Mark Shephard (cameo)
In Superman's fortress, Green Lantern, Flash, Hawkman, and Black Canary confront Superman, who has blood on his hands. Superman tries to remember what happened, but now remembers differently the events of Superman #219. He remembers "Darkseid" kidnapping Lois, and forcing a boxing match between the two of them. After Superman wins on a technicality, "Darkseid" frees Lois from his control by killing her, which causes Superman to attack-to-kill "Darkseid". The JLA take Superman to the Watchtower, where they show him he really was attacking Batman, apparently under mind control.
