With the invasion of Earth-51 by Monarch and his army of superheroes pulled from different worlds under way, Monarch himself confronts Solomon forcing him to flee to the Nexus. There some of his fellow Monitors berate him for the way in which he treated them before returning to Earth-51 in order to help stop Monarch and his army. As he wonders whether he has lost, Superman-Prime confronts him.

The Earth-51 Batman rallies his forces, capturing Jason.

Kyle and Ray talk while they have the chance and Ray says that the Earth-51 Ray Palmer was supposed to stop the Great Disaster, not him. The other Challengers are attacked by superheroes under Monarch's control, including Queen Belthera.

On Earth, Forager tells Jimmy that he is a soul catcher which explains his powers.
