Justice League of America #[8]

In "Devil in the Details," the new Justice League faces a sudden crisis when a green meteor disrupts their training at The Kitchen, leading them on a chase across Europe. As they intervene in a clash between Etrigan and the mysterious Die Rakete-Auslese over the meteor’s power, the team must unravel the truth behind the alien shard—only to uncover an unconscious Jade hidden within. Meanwhile, at the JSA’s headquarters, Sebastian Faust delivers a cryptic warning as Alan Scott’s green energy begins to spiral out of control.

In "Prelude to the Dark Things," Jade struggles to make sense of her origin tied to the Starheart—its same power now driving metas like Green Lantern and Power Girl into chaos. When Supergirl arrives at Bill's urgent request, she joins Jade in confronting the increasingly unstable Power Girl, while the Justice Society races to stop a Green Lantern fully consumed by the Starheart’s influence.

In "The Dark Things, Part One," the Justice League and Justice Society join forces as the Starheart's influence spreads, driving magical and elemental metahumans into chaos. When Jade uses her father's Green Lantern ring to track a possessed Green Lantern to the dark side of the moon, Starman ventures there only to be violently attacked and stripped of his power source.

In "The Dark Things, Part Two," as the Justice League of America races to locate the missing Starman, they enlist Miss Martian to forge a psychic link with him—only to be joined by Shilo Norman and Mister Miracle in a desperate search across fractured realities. Meanwhile, the JSA’s efforts take a darker turn when they discover that Obsidian and Dr. Fate, both under the influence of the Starheart, have already tracked the Shade to a hidden sanctuary.

In "The Dark Things, Part Three," Alan Scott—now host to the malevolent Starheart—has turned his moon base into a fortress of chaos, and the Justice League of America, joined by a few members of the Justice Society of America, launches a desperate mission to reclaim it. With Starman's fate hanging in the balance, the heroes push deep into the heart of the moon’s alien stronghold, facing not just the corrupted power of Starheart, but the unraveling of their own resolve.

In "The Dark Things, Part Four," Kyle Rayner arrives at the Starheart's lunar base just as Obsidian draws Jade into his dark embrace, unraveling the constructs of the Starheart and unleashing a terrifying fusion of their powers. Inside, Faust confronts a false Alan Scott forged from Dr. Fate’s magic, while Dr. Mid-Nite works to separate Nelson from his helm and reclaim Starman’s gem. On Earth, Mr. Terrific calls Power Girl and Supergirl from their battle with another version of Alan Scott, who turns to join his children on the moon.

In "The Dark Things, Part Five," Batman pushes Jade to confront a terrifying truth: she may be the only one who can free Alan Scott from the overwhelming power of the Starheart, a force now resisting even the combined strength of the Justice League and Justice Society. As the stakes rise, the weight of destiny rests on her shoulders—and on the fragile hope that Alan, the Green Lantern of legend, still holds the key to salvation.
