The Earth-1 Johnny then goes back in time to prevent the JLAers from existing when they stop T-Bolt from committing crimes for him. After being defeated by the JSA later on, he has the Thunderbolt go back in time again to create a Lawless League (based off the JLA's origins) from his criminal associates to confront the JSA on Earth-1.
