Birds of Prey
Thanagarian agents Rokara Soh and Skalla Kol journey towards Earth. Rokara, an artist, imbibes a fatal poison known as Hellshade. Before he dies however, he intends on detonating a lifebomb - a weapon that contains the sum total of his life experiences inside of it. Anyone caught within its blast radius will experience Rokara's entire history before dying.
The warship enters Earth's atmosphere and flies over the California shoreline. Buddy Baker) and Roger Denning) notice it's flight path and Buddy decides to investigate. He meets Skalla Kol and begins fighting with her. Skalla is a true warrior, and begins savagely beating on Animal Man with her mace. Buddy disengages her Nth Metal wings, and the sudden absence of gravity sends her flying high into the air.
Rokara meanwhile prepares to detonate his Lifebomb. Animal Man tries to stop him, but his powers tap into the Thanagarian's psyche and he mentally experiences Rokara's entire life since birth. Buddy thinks that Rokara has already activated the bomb.
Suddenly, Animal Man's perceptions return to normal. The bomb is inactive, and standing in front of it is Hawkman who glibly remarks, "All you had to do was switch it off."
