The strange voice that has been communicating with Brand gives him another cryptic message: “Fight for your life Boston Brand.” To his surprise, he unleashes a blast of White Energy taking the form of the recently resurrected heroes. The Anti-Monitor is staggered by the blast and counterattacks. Unfortunately, the power of the White Lantern Power Ring fails and Brand cannot fire a second blast.
