When Aquaman, ruler of Atlantis, decides he has had enough of the surface-dwellers trespassing in his ocean, the Justice League tries to smooth things over. Aquaman takes Superman's advice and arrives in New York City to speak to the World Assembly, but it soon becomes apparent that he may have been right about the surface-dwellers all along.
Exposed as a criminal, sentenced to prison, and terminally ill due to long term kryptonite exposure, Lex Luthor escapes and assembles a supervillain team consisting of Cheetah, The Shade, Solomon Grundy, Star Sapphire, Copperhead, and Ultra-Humanite to take on the Justice League, calling themselves the Injustice Gang. The Joker also becomes part of the team, but on his own choice. However, this gang proves short-lived as its major weakness proves no match for Batman's wiles.
Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor survive the attack and trick the Germans into believing that the communicator was destroyed. GL and Easy Co. find the runaway and discover that Vandal Savage plans to use jet aircraft to invade America. GL boards and tries to stop Vandal's plane while Hawkgirl, Superman, and Flash try to intercept the flight with J'onn's help. With the aid of the Blackhawks and Flash notifying the U.S. Navy, the German flight is shot down and Vandal apparently is killed. The JLA return to the present to find everything restored and Wonder Woman visits a now elderly Steve Trevor in the restored present.
In this one-part episode, the Justice Leaguers go their separate ways to celebrate the holiday season. After saving a distant planet, the League returns in time for Christmas. Clark and J'onn visit Smallville for a Kent family Christmas, Green Lantern and Hawkgirl have a snowball fight and visit an alien bar while comparing holiday traditions, and the Flash and Ultra-Humanite have a season's fight and are forced to ally together to save orphans' toys.
The Flash uses time travel to right a past wrong, but the ripples from the event result in a fractured alternate reality where the Justice League never formed, and Superman is nowhere to be found. Now The Flash must team up with a gritter, more violent Dark Knight and Cyborg in a race to restore continuity before the new world is destroyed by a war between Wonder Woman’s Amazons and Aquaman’s Atlanteans.
The fate of the earth hangs in the balance when the Justice League face a powerful new threat – the Fatal Five! Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman seek answers as Mano, Persuader and Tharok terrorize Metropolis in search of budding Green Lantern Jessica Cruz. With Cruz's unwilling help, they aim to free remaining Fatal Five members Emerald Empress and Validus and carry out their sinister plan. Meanwhile, the Justice League discover an ally in the peculiar Star Boy, who's brimming with volatile power. Could he be the key to thwarting the Fatal Five? An epic battle against ultimate evil awaits!
