Synopsis:
Agents from multiple parties have converged on Australia to retrieve an alien robot left behind during the alien invasion of Earth. However, the robot has been activated and begin targeting the agents sent to retrieve it. Maxon, a Lexcorp employee in a battlesuit is shot out of the sky. Manhunter arranges a truce between the competing parties to combat the robot. During the fight, a Rocket Red and Checkmate knight fall.
Eventually, the robot expels the dessicated corpse of Jeremy Heep, the man who found the robot. It tries to replace its human power source using Kazuo Hasegawa of the Yakuza. Mark intercepts Kazuo and is drawn into the robot. He then uses his staff to destroy its power core from the inside. He gets out just before the robot explodes. The surviving parties depart from the scene while Mark's employers begin a salvage operation of the destroyed components.
