THE TRIUMPH OF THE TORNADO TYRANT! Justice League being cheered for defeating the Rock Men of Pluto and then being honored at a banquet. Shortly thereafter, they are at their Secret Sanctuary and they disappear into a seemingly familiar tornado. It is the Tornado Tyrant. We then see a flashback of the tyrant losing to Adam Strange. He then hides himself and observes Adam Strange defeating The Palador, Adam Strange and the JLA defeating Kanjar Ro and the JLA defeating Dr. Light.The Tornado Tyrant wanted to win and decided to become a hero on an Earth identical to Earth 1 but billions of miles away and there, he became the incarnate of the Justice League, representing every member. However, on that earth, out of the depths of the sea rises a gigantic and malevalent Tornado creature, who is dedicated on proving that evil will defeat good.The "Justice League" then battled various menaces created by the Evil Tornado Tyrant and each member was defeated.

The Tornado Champion watched as Green Lantern, relying on past experience, shoots bolts of anti-energy into the Tornado Tyrant, ultimately defeating it. On his way back to his earth, The Tornado Champion realizes that the enemy is his own evil spirit. Once on Earth, the JLA could not duplicate the anti-matter energy so they altered their attack. The Tornado Tyrant, thinking he would be attacked the same way he was...
