The Justice League's battle continues on Mount Bellehead in Santa Prisca. Superman, Aquaman, Green Lantern, and Captain Atom were up against a menacing android, Amazo. Amazo was the creation of Professor Anthony Ivo, with a unique ability to scan and replicate its foes abilities. At this point, Amazo has gained the powers of Superman, Aquaman, and Green Lantern. Captain Atom was keeping his distance as he worked crowd control.

Mount Bellehead was in the middle of a volcanic eruption brought on by the mad scientist T.O. Morrow and an android of his own, Red Volcano. The Justice League had mostly contained the eruption and evacuated the nearby city, now they had to deal with Amazo. T.O. Morrow and Professor Ivo watched on from inside their lab on the side of the mountain.

"Beautiful isn't it?" T.O. Morrow says as he watches the league struggle to take on Amazo.

"I um, I suppose so." Professor Ivo says.

Professor Ivo was becoming more and more uncertain about this whole crazy experiment. He joined up with T.O. Morrow to work on his Amazo serum, but Morrow had other plans for what Ivo created. Red Volcano starts moving to leave the laboratory.

"Where do you think you're going?" T.O. Morrow asks.

"The volcanic eruption has stopped, I need to go start it again." Red Volcano says.

"No you don't, your part is done." T.O. Morrow says.

"Negetive, volcanic eruptions are the primary function for what I was created." Red Volcano says.

"I know why you were created, I created you, remember." T.O. Morrow says.

T.O. Morrow slyly hits a button on a remote hidden up the sleeve of his lab jacket.

"I have grown beyond my need for you." Red Volcano says.

Red Volcano shoots out a metal tentacle from its hand and pierces the ground beneath the lab. The android uses its pyrokinetic abilities to syphon up some lava and blasts it in T.O. Morrow's direction. Before it can hit Morrow, it is blown away by a gust of red wind.

"I had counted on this outcome, which is why I had contingencies in place. Let me introduce you to your younger brother, Red Tornado." T.O. Morrow says.

Another android stands there. It looked similar to Red Volcano, but with a sleeker design. This one, Red Tornado, was not as hulking as Red Volcano. It was still a red android with gold accents, but also wore a blue cape.

"My primary function is to protect life, I can not let you harm father." Red Tonado says.

Red Tornado also had a robotic voice, but it wasn't as menacing as Red Volcano's.

"I can not let you get in the way of my primary function." Red Volcano says, as the android lifts another load of lava and blasts it in the direction of Red Tornado.

Red Tornado creates another gust of wind, stopping the lava from hitting him.

Outside the lab, the fight against Amazo continues on. Green Lantern continued to blast the bot with green energy. Superman used his heat vision across Amazo's chest. But just as fast as Amazo was damaged, the androids nanite body healed itself.

"This might be hopeless." Aquaman says.

"There's always hope." Superman replies.

"What's the plan?" Aquaman asks.

"Keep it distracted and contained until reinforcements arrive." Superman says.

"So it can replicate their powers too?" Aquaman asks.

Superman doesn't respond. Cyborg and Martian Manhunter were on their way. Superman's hope is that Cyborg could scan some sort of weakness in the android.

A blast goes off from inside the lab.

"Did you see that?" Green Lantern asks.

"I didn't even know there was a building there, through all this smoke." Superman says.

"Atom, there's a building on the side of the volcano, check it out for any stranded civilians." Superman radios over to Captain Atom.

"I'm on it Superman." Captain Atom responds.

Captain Atom flies to the lab.

"What the?" Atom reacts as he looks inside.

Atom sees Red Volcano and Red Tornado battling each other. Red Volcano continues to launch heads of lava at Tornado. Red Tornado plays defense blowing the lava away. T.O. Morrow looks up and spots Captain Atom.

"You, if you're going to be here, help out and take that one out." T.O. Morrow says to Captain Atom as he points to Red Volcano.

Captain Atom blasts a beam of energy at Red Volcano slicing him in half. T.O. Morrow approaches the broken upper torso of the android and begins kicking it.

"Stupid, stupid." Morrow utters.

Red Volcano may be broken, but it was still active. The android raises his arm and blasts a load of lava at T.O. Morrow.

"AHHHHHHH!" T.O. Morrow yells as he burns alive.

"Father." Red Tornado says.

Red Tornado creates a strong gust of wind and directs it right at Red Volcano. Tornado is relentless, continuing his blast until Red Volcano is nothing but a pile of scrap.

"Help me!" Professor Ivo calls out.

During the fight, Ivo became trapped behind a pile of rubble. Captain Atom goes over to dig him out.

"Care to tell me what's going on?" Captain Atom asks.

"Yes, yes, I'll tell you everything, just get me out of here." Professor Ivo says.

Captain Atom flies Professor Ivo out of the lab. Red Tornado starts to follow, but looks up and sees the other members of the Justice League battling Amazo at the peak of the volcano.

Cyborg and Martian Manhunter arrive, being flown by Wonder Woman in her own jet. Wonder Woman's jet had cloaking technology so Amazo wouldn't immediately see them.

"This is as close as I can get." Wonder Woman says.

"Let's see what they're up against." Cyborg says.

Cyborg watches on as the league continues to fight Amazo. Amazo has Superman's strength and flight, Green Lantern's ring, and Aquaman's abilities to bend water to his will, but what was his weakness. Then, Cyborg finds it.

"That's it! J'onn, you have to go down there and let that android scan you." Cyborg says.

"What?! Are you sure?" J'onn asks.

"Yeah, I know how to defeat it." Cyborg says.

"Okay, but I should warn you, I won't do well around the heat of that lava." J'onn says.

"I'm counting on it. Wonder Woman, be ready for a quick extraction." Cyborg calls out to Wonder Woman in the cockpit.

"I'm on it." Wonder Woman says.

Wonder Woman flies the jet close and Martian Manhunter flies out.

"J'onn no!" Superman yells out.

J'onn begins to sweat profusely as he nears the lava atop the mountain. Amazo scans Martian Manhunter. The android then extends its arm and wraps around J'onn using the martian's own shape shifting abilities. Cyborg shoots a blast from his wrist cannon severing Amazo's arm. J'onn begins to fall to the pit of lava below. Wonder Woman flies her jet low and Cyborg reaches out to rescue J'onn.

"You did it." Cyborg says.

J'onn lies down trying to recover.

Amazo begins to feel the heat of the lava.

"It worked! This android may be able to get our strengths, but it also gets our weaknesses." Cyborg says.

"Of course." Superman says, recalling his battle with The Parasite.

Superman flies forward and shoulder tackles the android. It may have J'onn's weakness, but it still has plenty of strengths, including the strength of Superman. Amazo tosses Superman back and shoots a beam of green energy at him. Green Lantern shoots an unrelenting beam of energy back at Amazo. Aquaman joins in with a blast of water he pulled up the mountain side from the sea below. Amazo becomes unsteady and rocks back. The android then claps its hands together and with the strength of Superman creates a powerful blow knocking both Green Lantern and Aquaman back.

Amazo tried to refocus, but the heat of the lava was getting to it. As Amazo charges forward, it is blown back by a strong gust of wind, red wind. Red Tornado appears and begins to use its abilities as a force against Amazo. Amazo tries to hold its ground, but the heat of the lava is really getting to it now. Eventually, Amazo can no longer hold on and is blown into the lava. The League watch on as the android that was Amazo melts away in the liquid magma.

Later, at the Hall of Justice, the team scans this Red Tornado.

"Scans say that this android is safe." Cyborg says.

"But why create this force for good and that other one to go against us?" Wonder Woman asks.

"Father created me as a line of defense should Red Volcano or Amazo go rogue." Red Tornado explains.

"So this… Amazo wasn't created to be our enemy?" Green Lantern asks.

"Negative. Professor Ivo and T.O. Morrow did create the Amazo to test against the Justice League." Red Tornado says.

"But why?" Aquaman asks.

"A challenge. Father was always gifted when it came to robotics." Red Tornado says.

"So he created Amazo just to say he could?" Wonder Woman asks.

"Correct, though most of the Amazo creation was Professor Ivo's doing. Father worked on Red Volcano and myself." Red Tornado explains.

"That explains a lot, but I think there might be a little more to this puzzle." Superman says.

Superman flies off and heads to Stryker's Island. Inside the prison on Stryker's, Professor Anthony Ivo was being held.

"You have a visitor." The guard says to Ivo.

"Not in the mood." Ivo says from his bed.

"Professor, please." Superman says.

"You?!" The professor reacts.

"I saw your charts. I know the truth. The Amazo serum, you started creating it for you." Superman says.

"Yes, I have cancer. The Amazo serum was supposed to be a way for me to find a cure. But it's still too unstable. It'll take decades to perfect, time I don't have. Then after I left STAR, no one wanted near me or my work. Until I found T.O. Morrow. But by the time I learned how mad he truly was, it was too late." Professor Ivo explains.

"It's not too late professor, you're still here, you can still work on your cure." Superman says.

"I'll be here another six months, tops." Ivo says.

"What you do with that time is up to you." Superman says, as he turns to walk away.

"Why?" Ivo asks.

"Why what?" Superman asks, turning back.

"Why do you still put faith in me after what I've done?" Ivo asks.

"Over the years I have come up against a lot of powerful enemies. All of them use that power to take life. But being able to give life, that is true power." Superman explains.

Professor Ivo lies back down.

"Thank you for believing in me Superman." Professor Ivo says.

Superman nods. He leaves the prison and flies off into the sky.
