Synopsis
  • After saving a fisherman and returning him to his home island, Aquaman and Aqualad soon learn that the people there live in fear of a "sea demon" because they stopped paying tribute to it by giving it their valuables. Suspicious, the hero and his ward attack the sea demon when it appears again, and with the help of their undersea friends easily defeat him. Bringing the creature to the surface, Aquaman reveals that it's really a crook wearing a costume to cash in on the island's superstitious people. Aquaman informs them that he was tipped off that the creature was a fake when its trident touched its sea horse and created sparks because it was made of metal.
  • Diane Meade, while trying to call in an alarm on gang boss Rocky Dawson, slips, falls, hits her head, and gets amnesia. The doctor who treats Diane has her sent back to her patrol, in hopes that her memory will be jogged by familiar sights. Jones becomes J’onn J’onzz, secretly looking after Diane and saving her from attempts on her life. Eventually, J’onzz captures all of Rocky Dawson’s gang and Dawson himself, while Diane endures what seems to her a terminally boring day. When she returns to headquarters, her memory returns. John Jones brings Dawson and his men in at that moment, and she barks at him for interfering.
  • Batman and Robin fight a criminal called the Planet-Master, whose crime-costumes are modeled around the motif of the nine planets of the solar system.
