CHARACTERS: Gangbuster; Alfred Pennyworth; Tarot

PLOT:
Rita and Jose have escaped from Castle Branek and run into Alfred Pennyworth in the French Alps. Alfred is formerly in her Majesty's Secret Service and is now an archaeologist. He shows them a cave he has discovered with images on the walls representing the Trinity, who no longer exist in this new reality.

In exhange for all the help Alfred has given the pair, Rita offers to do a card reading for him. The cards reveal images of Alfred as a servant in a cavern and as a father figure. She asks if the name Batman means anything to him but it only does as its definition as an army officer's orderly.

When Rita and Jose decide it is time to leave Alfred and return to America, Alfred gives them a scroll that belonged to Khufu. He wants them to give it to the head of the Justice Society International, presumably Hawkman. After they leave, Alfred has the name Bruce on his mind.

CHARACTERS: Firestorm (Jason Rusch); Julia Kapatelis; Mammoth; Wonder Woman (Diana Prince)

PLOT:
Back in the U.S. a pregnant woman named Desiree is married to a heavy-drinking, verbally abusive husband. She keeps drawing images of Wonder Woman and has memories of seeing her speak in Washington but can't explain where these images are coming from since Wonder Woman doesn't exist. She runs into Julia Kapatelis one day who is impressed with her drawings and offers her a possible job at the Smithsonian where Julia works.

One day while walking home, past the J.S.I. Metahuman Courts Building (JLA's Hall of Justice in the old reality), Desiree sees the villain Mammoth fighting with police. Firestorm, who was in space when Earth changed and remembers the old reality, shows up to stop Mammoth but the police don't know who Firestorm is. Desiree recognizes the things Firestorm is talking about - like the JLA and the Hall of Justice - and tries to protect Firestorm from the police. When she gets home late, because of Mammoth, her husband is furious and burns all of her drawings.
