Synopsis: - Manhunter and Striker Z take a job on behalf of BioSpheer, who are under threat from H.I.V.E. But the villains prove to be fake, sent by BioSpheer. When Manhunter demands an explanation from CEO Jason Spheer, Green Arrow enters the scene and accuses them all of illegal activities. None of them, however, have anticipated the arrival of BioMax, the former CEO Jack Spheer now transformed into a biospheric creaure. BioMax takes control over Green Arrow, and pits him against Manhunter and Striker Z.
- Skyrocket takes Bork and Sapphire with her on an unauthorized mission to investigate the raids of several technological companies. They run into the Cadre in a most violent way.
- Witchfire records a music video, and gets an irresistible offer from her agent. And back in the current, an unknown gunman shoots Josiah Power...
