Synopsis:
After they have defeated the Doom Patrol inside the painting that ate Paris, the Brotherhood of Dada discovers that they have awakened the fifth horseman who was trapped inside the painting and is capable of destroying the world. The Brotherhood revives the Doom Patrol and joins them in the battle against the horseman.
Jane transports herself inside the horseman which gives the heroes an advantage. When they realize that the horseman draws power from the worlds inside the painting, Mr. Nobody directs it to the world of Dada where contradiction and absurdity reign. This causes the horseman to explode. Paris, the Doom Patrol, and the horseman are ejected from the painting, which is now ruined. The Brotherhood remains behind.
Many heroes including Superman and the Justice League have gathered in the real world when Paris disappeared. When the Doom Patrol exits, they find that the horseman was transformed into an innocent rocking horse. However, Jane is comatose.
