Synopsis:
Dr. Light escapes from prison by drawing a door on the wall and walking through it. The prison warden asks Ray Palmer to discover how the criminal accomplished the feat. Ray discovers that Dr. Light opened a door to another dimension, so Palmer follows him as the Atom.
Dr. Light realizes the Atom has followed him, so he is prepared to capture the Tiny Titan. He imprisons the Atom in a deadly lightbulb, then leaves to attack the Justice League. Atom escapes the trap, returns to Earth, and defeats the unprepared Dr. Light. When the JLA returns from a space mission, the Atom fills them in.
