Synopsis:
Animal Man is excited over his recent entry in Justice League Europe. His wife advises him to tell them about his recent problems with his powers. After she leaves, Buddy is attacked by the new Mirror Master. He has been hired by interests that oppose Animal Man's recent work with animal rights activist groups.

The fight between Animal Man and Mirror Master continues until Ellen gets home. She joins the fight by kicking the villain. The fight spins out into the yard outside where Buddy is turned into a mirror. The Mirror Master then departs. Ellen shatters his mirror which restores Buddy to normal.
