Justice League of America #[6]

In "Be Careful What You Wish For..." from Justice League of America #6 (2010), retired scientist Kimiyo Hoshi returns home to find her sanctuary breached by the Shadow Cabinet, forcing her to flee as she searches for her sons. Meanwhile, Black Canary asserts her leadership during a tense interstellar meeting, while Hardware and Iota infiltrate the League’s HQ to retrieve the remains of the first Dr. Light—only to be confronted by the rest of the team. As the Shadow Cabinet closes in, the League must confront not just an external threat, but the fractures within their own ranks.

In "Shadow and Act," the Justice League of America and the Freedom Fighters clash over the corpse of the fallen villain Dr. Light, a tense standoff that escalates when Hardware tries to flee with the remains—only to be intercepted by Hawkman, who delivers a chilling warning that throws the situation into deeper uncertainty.

When Shadow Thief hijacks the Justice League’s headquarters and unleashes twisted duplicates of both the League and the Shadow Cabinet, the fate of Earth hangs in the balance as a malevolent shadow moon hurtles toward impact. With trust shattered and reality unraveling, the only hope lies in an uneasy alliance between the two factions—before the dark god claims its due.

In "Nyctophobia," the beleaguered Justice League of America, reduced to just five members, faces a crisis of leadership and recruitment—until Dr. Light and Firestorm track down the elusive Shadow Thief. What begins as an interrogation spirals into chaos when the thief escapes, summoning the godlike Starbreaker from a realm of absolute darkness. As Starbreaker drains Dr. Light of power drawn from the star Vega, the two vanish—leaving Dr. Light to follow them into the endless night.

In "Metathesiophobia," the Justice League turns to Hardware for help tracking down the elusive Dr. Light and the dangerous Starbreaker, while Anansi quietly lends his support through the enigmatic Paladin—adding a layer of mystery to the mission.

In the climactic showdown with Starbreaker, Dharma unveils the true cost of Final Crisis on the Milestone world, revealing a rift that threatens to unravel reality itself. As the fate of multiple dimensions hangs in the balance, the Justice League of America must confront a mystery deeper than any battle they’ve faced.
