Despero and Morgane have sent their troops to the Anti-Earth at Enigma's urging to stop the JLA. The troops find the entire world at war as, with the defeat of the CSA, everyone is staking a claim to territory. The JLA is unsure of how to deal with this new situation.
On the CSA's orbiting satellite, Ray Palmer is unable to reverse their Cosmic Balance Inverter to send everyone home but keep the CSA trapped on the Anti-Earth. John Stewart's recent problems with his ring allow him to solve their problem by becoming one with the machine and discover how it works. He sends this information to Ray who is able to describe the needed changes to Firestorm who creates a new machine.
Back on the Anti-Earth's surface the JLA is telling the Trinity to go home and solve their personality problems while the rest of them take care of the population. Before they can do anything, Enigma appears in the CSA's satellite and activates Firestorm's machine which sends everyone back to their proper Earth. As the heroes begin to fade out, one of Morgane's soldiers catches Superman on the forehead, leaving a symbol burned into his skin. Back on Earth-0, Despero's troops begin hailing Superman as their master before self-destructing.

PLOT:
Sun-Chained-in-Ink continues to leak sun as a result of Hawkman cutting him. The heroes are helpless to stop him because he also exerts tremendous gravity like a sun. Metamorpho wraps the villain up while Geo-Force uses his gravity powers to lift them into space. Supergirl is able to throw Sun-Chained-in-Ink far enough away before he explodes. While the heroes deal with him, T.V.M. escapes with the skull of Maxwell Lord. This completes the set of artifacts needed by Morgane for her spell. Hawkman leaves, feeling responsible for the villains succeeding. Before anyone else can go after him, they are all called to the Justice League Hall.
