Millennium Edition: The Brave and the Bold 28 #[nn]

When a panicked Peter the Puffer Fish warns Aquaman of an alien invasion, the oceanic hero rallies Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Flash, Martian Manhunter, and the others to face the threat: Starro the Conqueror, a starfish-shaped conqueror with mind-control powers. With three ordinary starfish now serving as his lieutenants, Starro's attack on Earth forces the team to split up and confront the alien menace before it's too late.

In "Starro vs. Wonder Woman and John Jones," the alien menace Starro unleashes a new lieutenant bent on absorbing Earth's scientific knowledge, turning a stolen lab into a weapon of mass intellect. With Wonder Woman and Martian Manhunter racing to free the captive scientists, they uncover a terrifying truth: Starro’s lieutenants can share their stolen powers—now capable of unleashing nuclear blasts, the threat grows exponentially.

In "Starro vs. the Flash!", the Flash races against time in Happy Harbor, where a mind-controlled populace lies under the grip of a Starro lieutenant. With only a single teenager—Snapper Carr—unaffected, Flash must uncover the location of the real Starro before the alien threat spreads further. As the battle reaches its peak, the Flash makes a surprising decision to bring Snapper into the final confrontation.

When the alien menace Starro unleashes his mind-control powers on the Justice League of America, only Snapper Carr remains untouched—his body coated in lime, a surprising shield against the alien's influence. With the help of Flash and Green Lantern, the team turns the tide by using barrels of lime to neutralize Starro, turning the tide in a battle that tests both strategy and unexpected defenses.
