Synopsis

During one of the annual get-togethers between the JLA and JSA, the Secret Society of Super-Villains, led by the Ultra-Humanite, plot to capture 10 heroes (5 each from each group), using the foes who know them best. If successful, this would eliminate all heroes from either Earth-One or Earth-Two when the next cosmic wave cycle hits.
