“Star Light, Star Bright -- Death Star I See Tonight!”

In "Star Light, Star Bright — Death Star I See Tonight!", Red Tornado delivers a chilling warning to the JSA about Aquarius, a stellar entity reborn from cosmic exile, who steals Starman’s Cosmic Rod to reclaim his form. With Earth-2 vanishing in a flash, the JSA barely escape through Fate’s magic and Green Lantern’s ring, while Red Tornado races to Earth-1 to rally the JLA. Written by Denny O'Neil and illustrated by Dick Dillin, with inks by Sid Greene and cover by Joe Kubert, this 1969 classic blends cosmic dread and interdimensional stakes in a story that’s as bold as its 15-cent price tag.

Red Tornado relays his story to the JSA of a new menace, Aquarius, a stellar being who had been disincorporated after his evil acts, and sensing Starman's Cosmic Rod's energies, steals the rod from him to reincorporate himself. After nearly being defeated by the JSA, Aquarius uses the rod to blink Earth-2 out of existence, but not before several members protect themselves in an energy bubble using Fate's magicks and GL's ring's mystic energies. Red Tornado, meanwhile, has been sent to Earth-1 to the JLA to get help battling Aquarius. To be continued...
