Invasion! #[nn]

In "Chapter One," the Dominator experiments unlock the meta-gene, giving rise to the powerful Blasters. As alien forces from across the cosmos unite in response to Earth's growing superhero threat, the stage is set for a conflict that could reshape the planet's destiny.

In "Chapter Two," Adam Strange is captured alongside other prisoners of the Spider Guild, destined for the Psions' cruel experiments. Meanwhile, the Omega Men face a brutal assault in space from Durlan and Khund forces, resulting in deadly losses.

In "Chapter 3," Adam Strange is briefly free after his Zeta Beam escape, only to be seized again by a Khund advance squad as the alien alliance's massive armada closes in on Earth. While Adam is held, Vril Dox works in secret on a way to break free and turn the tide—though the cost of their plan remains unknown.

In "Chapter Four," Australia falls first to the alien invasion, leaving the Tasmanian Devil captured and the world on edge. The Spectre is called by the Lords of Order to stand aside, forbidden from interfering, while Amanda Waller and Max Lord are ordered to keep their teams in check. As the aliens issue their ultimatum to the United Nations—surrender all superheroes or face total conquest—Perry White defiantly headlines the Earth’s response on the front page: "Drop Dead!"

In "Chapter 1," Superman's fragile ceasefire with the alien invaders gives way to tense strategy sessions as Earth's heroes debate their next move. With Captain Atom preparing to lead the defense and Amanda Waller pushing for an alliance with supervillains, the lines between ally and enemy grow dangerously blurred—while the invaders' fractured coalition hides its own dangerous divisions.

In "Chapter 2," the fragile peace shatters as Superman’s team clashes with the Khunds across the Australian outback, while Aquaman and his allies hold the line beneath the sea against the Gil'Dishpan. With the Daxamites abandoning their neutrality to strike at Superman under Earth’s yellow sun, and the Thanagarians capturing the Flash for the Dominators’ experiments, the Suicide Squad arrives on the front lines in Australia—adding chaos to an already desperate battle.

In "Chapter 3," a Dominator scientist zeroes in on the metagene that fuels Earth’s heroes, escalating the alien invasion. On Havana’s streets, Manhunter Rudy West makes a final stand, destroying a Durlan base at great cost. Meanwhile, on the moon, a dying Daxamite transmits a desperate plea to his people. As tensions flare across the Citadel, interplanetary prisoners, led by the cunning Vril Dox, launch a daring revolt.

In "Chapter 4," the tide of the alien invasion shifts when the Daxamites unexpectedly abandon their assault and align with Earth's heroes. Their sudden change of allegiance comes after a crucial moment of intervention by Deadman, whose actions tip the balance in humanity’s favor.

In "Chapter 2," as dozens of heroes lie comatose and scientists race to find a cure, Hal and Guy are tasked with leading a small team to the Dominators' homeworld—where the truth behind the crisis may lie, and where the first deaths among the heroes begin to unfold.

In "Chapter 3," J'Onn J'Onzz pushes through the mind of a Dominator on their homeworld, unlocking the key to the gene bomb before the deadline. With time running out, the heroes race back to Earth, carrying the knowledge that could save millions.
