Synopsis:
L.E.G.I.O.N.'s attack of Dagon-Ra's compound is a failure. Dagon-Ra has defeated them. Spurred on by telepath, Dox attacks Dagon-Ra directly. Dagon-Ra transforms Dox into stone, then hurls him off a cliff. Instead of being broken at the bottom, Dox's fall is halted. The momentary surprise gives Telepath the opportunity he was waiting for. He signals Lobo and Lady Quark to attack Dagon-Ra. In his moment of confusion, the criminal master is unable to defend himself.
With Dagon-Ra defeated, Lobo continues his attack. He intends to kill his foe. Lar Gand intervenes. Dox calls them both off, allowing a boulder to fall on Dagon-Ra, killing him. Dox then asks Telepath and Lady Quark to join L.E.G.I.O.N., which they accept. Lady Quark then mentions another Vril Dox on Earth. Dox realizes this is his father and begins planning how to kill him.
