Gnort And South! While Manga Khan awaits an answer from the U.N. which will never come, G'nort arrives from the Australian Outback and singlehandedly attacks the Cluster. Infuriated by the Green Lantern's assault, Khan orders his ships to take Earth.
A power surge in Australia blows out the monitor at the New York Justice League Embassy, at the time attended to by Oberon. He alerts the team, and Mr. Miracle and Beetle pilot the JLI shuttle, taking Booster Gold and probationary members Green Flame and Ice Maiden with them to Australia to investigate the power surge. The Martian Manhunter leads the rest of the team -- Captain Atom and Rocket Red -- into space to fight the invaders. G'nort joins the three powerful heroes in their struggle against the Cluster's battle fleet.
In the Australian Outback, the others find a large structure guarded by a massive killer robot. When the robot retreats into the structure -- actually recalled by the defeated Manga Khan -- Mr. Miracle slips inside, only to hear the engines roar. Unknown to the other Leaguers, Scott had inadvertently trapped himself inside a Cluster ship.
The League informs Scott's wife of his capture. Barda is determined to retrieve her man at any cost.
Guy Gardner had missed the entire battle with the Cluster. As the team ponders his whereabouts, it is revealed that he has traveled to Gotham City to beg Batman to rejoin the JLI.
