Synopsis

When Ray Palmer and Aron Aut track down the Ignition Point, the source of the disruption that threatens the Microverse, Ray is betrayed by Aut, who instead of wanting to help to save the Microverse, intends to accelerate its destruction. Ray turns the tables on Aut, who has taken on the identity of The Null, and is able to defeat him. Unfortunately, the JLA have led Aut back to Ignition Point, and have given him another chance to destroy the Microverse.
