JLA: The Deluxe Edition #4

In "Earth 2," the Lex Luthor from the anti-matter universe summons the JLA to his world, pleading for their help to topple the tyrannical Crime Syndicate of America—only to discover that the rules of heroism, power, and even physics don’t hold true in this twisted reflection of their own.

In "Island of the Mighty," the JLA is stranded in the strange, infantile realm of Qwewq, leaving Earth vulnerable as Gorilla Grodd unleashes his ape terrorist forces against the International Ultramarine Corps. With the Squire as the sole survivor, he reaches out to Batman—now the last JLA member on Earth—to stop Grodd’s plan to turn the missing heroes into mind-controlled weapons.

In "Master of Light," Batman and Squire race to a remote JLA outpost on Pluto to rally help against the escalating threat of the Black Death, while Grodd turns the captured Ultramarines into weapons of chaos. With time running out and the robot Justice League failing to stop the tide, the fate of the infant universe hangs in the balance.

In "Seconds to Go," the JLA confronts the mind-controlled International Ultramarines in a high-stakes mission that forces them to question the cost of heroism. When Neh-Buh-Loh reveals itself as the grown-up version of Qwewq, the team faces a revelation that reshapes their understanding of destiny—and the future of a universe without heroes.
