== Plot ==
* The lone surviving Green Lantern guardian, Ganthet, tells John Stewart of the prophecy of the "War of Light". The other Guardians were killed by Parallax in Green Lantern: Parallax. 
* Maxima and Cyborg investigate the damage to Bruce Wayne's grave, which occurred during the credits scene of Justice League: United. They find out that his skull was removed.
* William Hand, who appeared in the credits scene of Justice League United, takes the skull of Bruce Wayne to a Black Lantern power battery, which was given to him by Nekron.
* Cyborg asks the crippled Barry Allen to help with the investigation, and they determine that a man named William Hand is behind it. 
* Allen asks his protégé, Wally West, to find Hand. West brings Hand to the Justice League, but find out that he has dug up corpses of others already. Allen gives West his original suit, finally calling him "The Flash".
* Hand was given a black power ring by the combined force of Nekron and the fallen Green Lantern guardian, Scar. He is able to escape from the Justice League and obtains the skull of Hal Jordan, who died in Green Lantern: Parallax.
* Ganthet tells John Stewart to go to Earth with Katma Tui and Guy Gardner, as he senses a disturbance. Stewart is then attacked by Black Lanterns General Zod and Faora, who died in The Man of Steel.
* Meanwhile, Scar brings the Black Lantern power battery to Coast City, and unleashes the Black Lanterns Sinestro, Metallo, Siren, and Red Tornado onto the city. Wally West arrives with the help of Star Sapphire, Maxima, and Aqualad.
* In Gotham, the Black Lanterns Ra's al Ghul, Harvey Dent and Bane cause destruction and overwhelm Robin, before being saved by Catwoman and Green Arrow.
* Wonder Woman, Wonder Girl, Cyborg, and Booster Gold defeat Black Lanterns Lex Luthor, Metallo, Red Tornado, Knockout, Slipknot, Cyborgirl, and Count Vertigo. However, Black Lantern Batman appears and causes emotional distress to the Justice League, considering he sacrificed his life for them in The Justice League III.
* After defeating Zod and Faora, John Stewart goes to Nekron, but is intercepted by a Black Lantern Hal Jordan. 
* After the superheroes at Coast City defeat the Black Lanterns there, Scar attacks them to protect the Black Lantern battery. Guy Gardner and Katma Tui assist them.
* Hal Jordan is almost able to defeat John Stewart and the combined forces of Star Sapphire and Arisia Rrab, who are all very distressed about fighting him. Nekron arrives and kills Arisia Rrab, causing her to become a Black Lantern.
* Before John Stewart is defeated, Guy Gardner is able to destroy Scar, Hand and the Black Lantern battery. This shuts down the Black Lanterns and unleashes the War of Light.
