'HUMAN LEAGUE'
•The fiendish finale!

•The grateful world computer ALIEN-ATOR's quantum codex finally guides the reality-lost bad guys back home but the welcome they receive isn't what they expected. The world's changed since they were gone, and not for the better where aliens are concerned.
•Formula Z6 gas neutralizes the Martian powers of MA'ALEFA'AK!
•A neural blocker designed for depowering telepathic PSIONS knocks out MAXWELL LORD!
•LEX LUTHOR's stolen prototype solar energy disruptor drains BLACKFIRE's Tamaranean powers!
•The ÜBERADICATOR accepts a most intriguing job offer.

•How were some of the worst aliens, hybrids, and metahumans taken down so quickly and so easily? The heroes who did it will never tell but a little 5th dimensional imp whispered in their ears that he was done having fun with his toys and wanted them put back in the box for someone else to play with.
•Coming soon: JLβ!

WRATH OF THE TIGER!
Blood runs in the streets of the capital of Burendia as Ben, Grifter and John Diggle battle soldiers so that Bat-Wing and the other Congo agents can escape! Now, Ben turns his attention to Matthew Bland, President of Burendia who also goes by the name of The Red Lion! Years ago Bland captured and tortured them all leaving mental and physical scars. But Ben is long gone leaving the Bronze Tiger fully in control as he races towards his prey, slashing everything in his path. The Red Lion smiles and rushes to greet his enemy! This will be a great battle he thinks, songs and stories will be told of his great victory!
The two meet in all the chaos and begin their dance of death (I'm taking poetic license here)! At first they seem evenly matched, going blow for blow! However as the fight goes on, The Bronze Tiger seems to be getting stronger and stronger and doubt begins to creep into the mind of The Red Lion! Bland, realizing that he is about to lose, suddenly surrenders. But Ben is to far gone and is out for blood. He raise his claws, ready to rip Bland's throat when his hand is stopped in mid-air by John Diggle, the same John Diggle who betrayed them all to Bland the first time!

THE QUESTION #42
Writer: MARK RUSSELL
Artist: BILL SIENKIEWICZ
Plotter: CaptCleghorn
“Is it Justice or Vengeance?”
Marian Mercer, the vigilante calling herself Pagan has fired a bullet between the legs of one of the Hub City school shooters. The Hub City Police do not allow him to change his underwear before bringing him in. Vic and Marian manage to escape before the HCPD brings them in as well.
It is expected the captured shooter will talk and give up his friends. The FBI is involved as are state authorities. Parents of victims are making the rounds on media outlets and various news and “news” programs. Ron Troupe is making a name for himself with his understanding, kind, understanding mannerisms.
Vic, on the other hand, is facing pressure from the DCBA network to make this a big story and to focus on it heavily. His desire to bring forth aids to prevention of attacks like this and education warning signs is far too gentle and controlled for DCBA.
And Vic’s day gets interesting in the Chinese “May you live in interesting times” curse way. Betty Bates, Lady@Law has good news and bad news for him. She tells him the “Me Too” case against him is extraordinarily weak and really shouldn’t have gotten as far as it did. The woman making the charges is an employee of Lorelei Chase, the singer known as the Siren. The charger has a number of payments made to her by DCBA.
Interesting times, indeed.
