Lots of stuff happening here. This will take a while. [spoiler]Natasha talks Luthor into letting that speedster, who apparently is a Flash and Teen Titans groupie, back onto the team.
Ralph and the floating helm of Fate coerce a demon into letting them into the Underworld by feeding him gingold when he’s knocked out, tying him in knots, and threatening not to untie him before his flexibility wears off.
Natasha and the rest of Luthor’s team fight a new Blockbuster in Vegas as Infinity Inc, while Lex directs backstage. The Teen Titans (Hotspot, Beast Boy, Raven. Zatara, Little Barda and Power Boy) show up and verbally spar with the Infinities. Lex turns up Blockbuster’s powers and Trajectory (the speedstrix) takes off after him. Lex turns Trajectory’s powers off, and BB kills her. She gets a tearful heroe’s funeral, the Titans break up (again), Steek spars with Natasha. Gar offers Steel the Titan’s help.
In Austrailia, someone has rebuilt Red Tornado from spare parts he had lying around… It’s not pretty. [/spoiler]
Jack of Fables - Interesting bunch of Fables involved in the breakout. A couple I can’t ID, though - the eskimo (I’m wondering if it’s Nanook, despite the supposedly doccumentary nature of the film), the redheaded guy next to Humpty, the celtic dude, and the horse-dragon-thing (presuming it’s a Fable, not a piece of statuary). I assume the native looking dude with the bird iconography on his gear is the Raven. (He could be someone else, but he looks too strongly Native American to not be Raven, to my mind.) I suspect Jack will end up regretting cutting Mother Goose out of the escape plan, and probably trusting Humpty, Sam, and the Falacy. No specific reason, just a hunch. Goldi’s coming across as surprisingly trustworthy…for now, at least. (Although it does make sense that she would be…this is the same sort of thing she was fighting against before.)
