Orion returns to Earth in a weakened state, and a homeless drifter hides him. Slig, leader of the Deep Six, escapes from captivity, and having heard of the Joker's latest plot, alters his own face to resemble the Joker's as a tribute and also changes countless fish into Joker fish. As Slig then leads an army of sea monsters across the Pacific Ocean, the Joker briefly wonders whether his plot has gone too far.
