Green Lantern, Flash, and Atom are overwhelmed with the combined menace of six Black Lanterns, who are not just living dead, but also powerful former friends and teammates. When Black Lantern Sue Dibny is about to rip out the Atom's heart, the Indigo-1 Lantern appears and saves the heroes. Indigo-1 is able to sever the Dibnys' connection to the black battery and vanishes them; then teleports herself, her companion, and the three heroes away.
Back at the Hall of Justice, Mera is talking to Firestorm when Green Lantern and his companions materialize. Flash recognizes her and asks her whether she is alright. She tells the group what happened to Tempest, and then along with the other heroes question Indigo-1.
The Indigo Lantern talks about the origin of the universe and how darkness was overcome by light at the beginning, but then started to fight back and splintered it into the seven colors of the spectrum. Now darkness is attacking again and is trying to reclaim what once belonged only to it.
At first the heroes believe that the Black Lanterns are not really their deseased friends, but after Mera explains that Aquaman knew everything Arthur Curry did, the Atom concludes that perhaps the rings took over the dead to attack the living under some kind of programming. Indigo-1 advises that representatives of all the seven corps must come together to replicate the original white light and defeat the Black Lanterns.
When Green Lantern makes a dismissive comment about Death, Flash lectures him on how insensitive he is being to Mera and Atom's recent ordeals. After a brief argument, both friends make amends and decide that it is time to fight back; but suddenly, the Black Lantern Justice League appears, and Indigo-1 and her companion take Green Lantern away leaving Firestorm, Atom, Flash, and Mera by themselves.
To be continued...
