Break Downs, Part 8
So, the whole Justice League is now at the Justice League cave. Those two little kids are running around again, but now I suspect they are Rocket Red's kids. In the last issue, he said he had kids. And Kurt Heimlich was talking about how Rocket's wife and kids were welcome at the JLE headquarters, so Ralph would be, too, as the spouse of Sue.
Flashback to packing up the JLE headquarters. Camus tells Cath Cobert that he will try to get Interpol to sponsor the JLE, but it will take time. Is there a spark of something between these two? Maybe. They are throwing longing looks at each other.
Sue is purging the computer systems, so sensitive information doesn't fall into the wrong hands. Sue tries to rally the troops to run under their own command, using their own resources, from where else but the cave? (Power Girl is being a b***h during this, griping about soda pop. I like the most recent Power Girl better. And she is still a little snotty to J'onn at the cave. Get over it, PG!
So Beetle (looking rather more portly than the last issue -- he is gaining some weight) and Ralph go exploring, mainly looking for the Doom Patrol, who might or might not be sharing the cave. Apparently there is someone called "The Scarlet Harlot" in the DP at this point. Flash hears this and decides to join the boys in looking. They end up in a very weird sort of hallucinatory booby trap, talking to a bureau head (literally, a bureau for a head) and seeing giant noses. Yes, this must be that weird Grant Morrison Doom Patrol. Flash vibrates them out, and they eventually find the head of the Doom Patrol, but he yells at them, so they leave and are going to put it in J'onn's hands.
Other things that happen:
Manga Khan hires Lobo to retrieve Despero. That can't be good.
Camus is investigating the disappearance of the Extremists.
Max wakes up while Major Disaster is standing guard.
