The space-tossed heroes from Earth and Lobo are pursued by the Emerald Head, which seeks to regain the eye Lobo removed as retribution for blasphemy against the Triple Fish God. But during their travels, they've determined that whatever force it was that destroyed the Vega star-system is headed towards Earth, and they are likely the only beings able to stop it.Montoya and the Question desperately try to reach Batwoman, Kate Kane, to tell her of the prophecy they found in Intergang's Book of Crime. But will that knowledge alone be enough to stop Intergang from killing Batwoman and devouring Gotham?
