They fight the JLA and as Starman's rod energies begin to increase an enormous energy ball forms, threatening to kill Black Canary trapped by one of Green Arrow's adhesive shafts. Her husband Larry awakens from Aquarius's control and sacrifices his life to save her. Both teams regroup to defeat Aquarius. Devastated over her husbands loss Black Canary leaves the JSA and moves to Earth-1.
