In "Lives in the Balance," Wonder Woman and the Justice League America are called to Seylone by Max Lord and the United Nations to confront a dire human rights crisis—only to discover a shocking new faction of Extremists already entrenched in the conflict. With tensions flaring and the stakes rising, the team must navigate political intrigue, unexpected alliances, and the moral weight of intervention, all while facing threats from the New Extremists and the looming presence of a mysterious figure in the shadows.
In the aftermath of a devastating clash with the New Extremists on Seylone, the Justice League America regroups—only to face new challenges closer to home. Wonder Woman and Ice return to Norway, where Ice confronts the unsettling reality that her father, once a strong leader, has fallen into frailty, forcing her to reckon with the weight of her family’s legacy.
In a high-stakes tale of exile and allegiance, two fugitives—Blake and Corbett—seek refuge on Earth after fleeing a relentless alien race, the Kerrilians, only to find themselves caught between the Justice League’s protection and the U.S. government’s demand for extradition. As Captain Atom and his Peacekeepers move in to enforce the handover, Wonder Woman and her allies must navigate shifting loyalties, while Ice’s brother Ewald makes a dangerous move in Norway to claim power from his ailing father.
In the wake of a hard-fought battle against Captain Atom’s Peacekeepers, the Justice League America faces a moral crossroads when Maxwell Lord and President Bill Clinton demand they hand over fugitives Blake and Corbett to the Kerrilians. Meanwhile, in Norway, Ice learns her father has died, thrusting her brother Ewald into the role of king of the northern lands—just as tensions with the Kerrilians begin to boil over.
In "Guilty as Sin," Wonder Woman and Captain Atom face a tense standoff when the Kerrilians demand the return of Blake and Corbett in person, forcing hard choices as emotions flare. With Guy Gardner (clone) on edge and the weight of past betrayals pressing in, the fragile peace begins to unravel—especially when a shocking act of violence erupts in the heart of New York.
In "The Trouble with Guys," Wonder Woman and the Justice League America face a crisis when the Kerrilians depart Earth with Corbett, only to learn from Ice's mother that Ewald has seized control and taken Ice hostage. Just as they prepare to respond, Guy Gardner returns—more volatile than ever—only to be felled mid-attack by a second figure claiming to be him. Back at headquarters, Booster Gold pushes Ted Kord to don the Blue Beetle mantle once more, reigniting old tensions and setting the stage for a confrontation that tests loyalty, identity, and the cost of heroism.
In "Collateral Damage," the Justice League America faces a shocking revelation when the real Guy Gardner arrives, insisting that the teammate they’ve been trusting is a malevolent clone. With tensions rising and loyalty tested, the team must confront the doppelgänger’s destructive path—before the truth tears them apart.
When Ice’s brother Ewald seizes control of the Northern Lands and turns the people against her, the Justice League America arrives to rescue her—only to discover that Ewald now wields a power beyond their understanding. As Wonder Woman, The Ray, Guy Gardner, and the rest of the team face the escalating threat, they must navigate a conflict where loyalty, family, and the weight of absolute power collide.
In "Only the Lucky Ones Die!", Jack Mobley—once a grieving man facing loss and illness—awakens to a terrifying transformation after an alien attack, becoming a force that turns others into monsters with a single touch. Now hunted by the Justice League America, including Wonder Woman and a roster of heroes from Booster Gold to Ray, Jack must confront the monstrous power he never asked for, even as the line between victim and villain blurs.
