being Aquarius approaches the Earth and defeats Starman, stealing his cosmic
rod and using it to create chaos around the planet. Having discovered
the injured Starman Black Canary and her husband gather the JSA to battle
the demented being set on destroying the Earth. Having obliterated
all existence except for the JSA, which is encased in a protective shield
formed by Dr Fate a weakened Aquarius rests to prepare for his final onslaught
against the Society. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to the villain the Red Tornado
has sped off to Earth-One to seek the assistance of the JLA. During
a rescue attempt Aquarius turns the JSA against their friends. During
