Synopsis:

Buddy helps a group of activists sabotaging a foxhunt in Hetfordshire, England. Meanwhile, former JLA'er Vixen is on the run from invisible monsters and seeks refuge in Buddy's home. In Arkham Asylum, James Highwater confronts the Psycho-Pirate, who mumbles about pre-Crisis Earths and expresses fear of being "removed from continuity". Then he shows Highwater a page out of a comic book that points him towards Animal Man. When Buddy returns home, he and Vixen are attacked by the invisible monsters. Buddy is "de-constructed" and disappears, after which the Yellow Aliens appear on the scene...
