Synopsis:

While President Luthor tries, in a television interview conducted by Lois Lane, to convince the American populace of the danger posed by the approaching asteroid, and of Superman's connection with it, Batman and Superman think it is time to bring the fight to Luthor directly. But their way to the White House is barred by a multitude of villains, some there under the mental control of Grodd, but others trying to collect the billion dollar reward for taking Superman in. Captain Atom and his squad of heroes arrive on the scene and help eliminate the villains the world's finest team have not yet dealt with, but announce they they, too, are there to arrest the two heroes.
