“The Alien Alliance, Chapter One”

In "The Alien Alliance, Chapter One," Earth faces its first direct assault as Australia becomes the initial target of a coordinated alien invasion, with the Tasmanian Devil captured in the chaos. The Spectre is called by the Lords of Order to remain neutral, while Amanda Waller and Max Lord are ordered to restrain their respective teams—just as the invaders issue a chilling ultimatum to the United Nations: surrender all superheroes or face total annihilation. Perry White, unflinching, prints the defiant response on the front page: Earth to Invaders: Drop Dead! Written by Keith Giffen and Bill Mantlo, with art by Keith Giffen and Todd McFarlane, and colored by Carl Gafford, the cover by Bart Sears captures the moment of global tension.

Australia is the first continent to fall to the invasion and the Tasmanian Devil is captured. The Spectre is summoned by the Lords of Order and ordered to stay out of the coming battle, and to prevent other mystical heroes from becoming involved. Likewise, Amanda Waller and Max Lord are told to keep their teams in check. The aliens deliver their ultimatum to the United Nations: Earth must surrender all superheroes to the alliance in order to stop the invasion. Perry White is proud to publish the UN's answer on his paper's front page -- Earth to Invaders: Drop Dead!
