After a successful mission in Bialya, JL members return to their respective civilian lives. Batman is alerted of a possible breach at Arkham inmates who are hiding in the sewers. But he's ambushed by Deathstroke and is fatally wounded. After being helped by Catwoman, Batman returns to his Batcave to find that his system has been compromised and his contingency plans for the league ( made of precise observations and experimentation of the League members abilities and weaknesses) is stolen. He's also alerted that all of the League members are being attacked by his plans and goes to save them. The Hall of Justice is destroyed by Lex Luthor and his group of dangerous villains called the Legion of Doom. Withthe help of the Question and Cyborg, they track that it was the Legion who stole the plans to immobolize the League , and plan to instigate a nuclear war between Bialya and Qurac, which would set the world into war and chaos. The League is disgusted by the fact that Batman had contingency plans against them. Nevertheless, they fight the Legion to stop before the activated Brother Eye satellite nukes Qurac and starts the war. After the fight, the League votes in favour of Batman's resignation and he leaves the League.
