  With Beast Boy seriously injured, the Titans and Bat family keep vigil outside his hospital room. Deathstroke's villains continue their assault on heroes across the world. Black Adam attempts to train a new Justice League of younger heroes to meet the threat, however, not all of them agree with his methods. Influenced by the Great Darkness, Deathstroke takes things to the next level. Hal, Kyle, and Jo Mullein lead the Green Lantern Corps to investigate a possible connection between Pariah and the Black Lantern Corps. Black Adam feels he must turn to new allies to face the coming crisis.

To stop Slade Wilson, the young heroes of the DCU might have no other choice than to turn to the brutal tactics of Black Adam…
