WOLF IN THE FOLD! Revealing that the explosion thought to have destroyed him actually hurled him into Earth-1, and that he is unable to return to Earth-2, the Red Tornado is voted in as a Justice League member. Now possessing facial features that he believes were molded for him by a blind hermit who had befriended him, Red Tornado takes a secret identity as "John Smith," and goes looking for a job. Employment counselor Kathy Sutton befriends him, and soon becomes romantically involved. All are unaware that the android is once again the pawn of his creator, T. O. Morrow, who had also been the "blind" hermit sculptor. Unknown to him, a mechanism in the Tornado's android body will affect his JLA signal device the moment he first uses it, causing the entire Justice League to be destroyed. Morrow's computer-forecaster has predicted that, in 28 days, either he or the JLA will cease to exist, thus prompting his scheme for their destruction. Morrow's men therefore commit crimes, hoping to cause the Red Tornado to call his comrades for aid, but the Justice League members deduce the scheme, and fake their own demise in order to trap him. As they take him into custody, the 28 days elapse, and Morrow, inexplicably, fades out of existence.
