Synopsis
On Earth-Prime, Cary Bates and Elliott S! Maggin are contemplating the next issue of JLA to write when they both go into Infantino's office, stumble upon the Cosmic Treadmill Earth-1's Flash left behind. Accidentally, they activate it, and Bates disappears to Earth-2 as a villain, with superpowers. Maggin follows, but lands up on E-1 with the JLA. The JLA then goes to Earth-2 to help out the JSA, who has been fighting the Injustice Society, and 'kill' each member, revealing the members as disguised JSAers. The JLA then vow to stop the Injustice Society and bring them to justice for the JSA.
