The weapon Dox prepared proves useless and Starro takes control of all the rebels but Dox. The Omega Men arrive with the poison they discovered, but their attack also fails to stop Starro or his starfish. Only when Dox applies a poison dart directly to the starfish in symbiotic relationship with Starro is Starro's control over the other starfish broken. After Despero takes Starro to Kalanor to execute him, Dox announces to the galaxy his plan to re-activate L.E.G.I.O.N.
