“GERM WARFARE.” A virulent, sentient spore from outer space is turning people into zombies! The Justice League splits up to investigate this mysterious contagion in Tokyo, Los Angeles, Paris and Sydney, but will they themselves be able to avoid becoming infected?

Spoiler Alert

Some disease has changed people into zombies. There are breakouts all over the world in Australia, Japan, California, and France. The Justice League is sent in and one by one they succumb to the zombies. Only the Martian Manhunter is immune. He takes on the head zombie only to find out that the only way to end the mind control is to absorb the evil spirit in his own body.
