Synopsis:
The Justice League is the target of a magazine article by reporter Wally Tortolini. The reporter got information about the League by going through their garbage. The article which exposes several secret identities is killed by the editor when he receives a request from his European distributor, Ms. D'Aramis, aka the Crimson Fox.
Elsewhere, Despero returns to Earth seeking revenge upon the old members of the Justice League. He finds the remains of Steel's lifeless body, then he goes after Gypsy, killing her parents in the process. Despero chases her around town, killing indescriminantly until he corners his target. However, the prolonged rampage has given time for the arrival of the Martian Manhunter.
