In "Gross Injustice," Ted Kord remains trapped under the lingering effects of the Queen Bee’s mind control, forcing the League to call on the ancient sorcerer Nabu for help. While tensions rise, Barda’s car—and the mysterious Mega-Rod hidden inside—vanish without a trace. Written by Keith Giffen and J. M. DeMatteis, with art by Giffen and Ty Templeton, and a cover by Kevin Maguire, this 2009 issue blends supernatural intrigue with a high-stakes mystery.
