The Rundown: The infection is spreading and no where is safe. Not even the seas are immune as Aquaman is going to find out. As cities burn, Damian wants to know where his father is. At the same time, Harley Quinn has made a decision that will change the course of her life. The only thing she needs to do first is tell Joker. Unfortunately, that would have been dangerous even in the best of circumstances.

Even on vacation no one if safe when a rampaging Hal Jordan goes after Oliver and Dinah with the power of his ring. All hell is breaking loose and as a new hero emerges from the ashes, Batman finally gets through to the rest of the League with a message about the infection and the sacrifices they will have to make to stop it. Things only get worse when Bruce makes a fateful confession before sending them on their mission.

The Story: Full of intensity, tragedy and twists, Tom Taylor does a stellar job of moving this story into unexpected territory. No one is safe and the characters chosen to showcase that fact are inspired. This issue mixes great plot, pacing and dialogue in a way that amplifies the tension inherent in the story. I can’t wait to see what unexpected places this story goes next.

The Art: Trevor Hairsine brings some beautiful art work to this issue. The dark, gritty style of the story is perfectly presented by Hairsine’s art.
