Synopsis for 1st story
The issue begins with Cecil in the Pacific Rim investigating the volcano eruption. A lava man agent emerges from the lava and tells Cecil that the lab was completely destroyed. Cecil says they will not stop looking until they find Brit, Britney, Donald, and Ms. Popper.
On The Emperor's home dimension, Ms. Popper looks around upset. She didn't mean to bring them to that dimension. Brit says he needs to go back home to find his son but Ms. Popper tells him that she will need to rest first. Invincible warns them that they have incoming.
A mechanical bug flies towards them and Tech Jacket shoots it down. Susan explains that it is a mindscrew. It attaches to your neck and transmits a pacification signal into your brain. The Emperor uses them to keep everyone safe and under control.
The one that Tech Jacket shot down alerted a swarm and a bunch of the mindscrews come flying at them. Britney pulls out her taser and plans to have Becky zap them all. But for some reason Becky doesn't respond. Britney tries to run but one of the mindscrews catches her and attaches itself to her.
Ms. Popper teleports everyone to a resistance hideout where Tech Jacket gets to work trying to help Britney. Susan explains to Brit that all they can do is keep the mindscrew from transmitting because they are dangerous to remove. Brit looks at her wounded arm and asks if she is okay. Susan tells him she's tougher than the Susan he remembers and she'll eventually be able to regrow the arm.
Susan apologizes to him for getting him and his world involved. He says that he can't do anything about his son until Ms. Popper can take him back so he just wants some answers. Tech Jacket comes out and says he disabled the tracker but she is still getting the pacification signal because removing it would probably kill her. Now Brit really wants some answers.
Tech Jacket tells the story. He says he came upon a crashed Geldarian scout ship and a tech jacket bonded with him. The Geldarians followed the signal to Earth. In this dimension, the Geldarians are a vicious race of conquerors. When they discovered Earth they invaded.
The heroes of the world fought and beat them back at the cost of many lives. Once they were defeated, the Geldarians decided to unleash the planet killing omega jacket. It released plasma waves that turned the U.S. into a wasteland. The Brit of this dimension was in Washington trying to evacuate his wife when the wave hit. Everyone died but him.
The heroes made a last stand in Europe. Their combined effort was able to crack it's outer shell. This allowed Donald to save the world. The Donald of this dimension was also an android. He merged with the omega jacket so he could shut it down. But the omega jacket completely absorbed Donald and he was gone. This was the last straw for Brit. He snapped and bonded with the omega jacket and the empty shell of his dead best friend. He became The Emperor. He left the planet and exterminated the Geldarian race. When he returned he started rebuilding the planet under his rule.
Susan breaks in to say that she doesn't think that their Donald is actually dead. She thinks he's dormant inside the omega jacket. She thinks that Brit's Donald is similar enough to merge with the omega jacket and reawaken their Donald. Brit worries that the omega jacket would just absorb his Donald like it did the other and Susan admits that it is a risk. She thinks that since Brit is the same person as The Emperor he should be able to walk into his palace and retrieve Donald.
Susan knows how to get into the palace through tunnels underneath it but they'll need a diversion. Tech Jacket recommends taking out a pacification broadcast station. Britney comes in and says she's coming with them. Tech Jacket is surprised she can even stand much less have a violent thought. But Brit says that Britney was built for aggression.
Meanwhile at the palace, The Emperor is having lunch with Donald's head. He made a replica of their favorite diner inside of his palace. This dimension's Cecil is their waiter. The Emperor asks Donald if he'd like to watch a movie.
At one of The Emperor's pacification stations, Wolf-Man, Tech Jacket, Invincible, and Britney are attacking it's Reanimen guards. This finally draws the attention of The Emperor's elite forces. They are evil looking versions of this dimension's Rex Splode, Atom Eve, and Monster Girl. They go by Hex Splode, Atom Shiva, and Monstrous Girl.
Invincible says he gets to fight the jerk that stole his girlfriend, referring to Hex Splode and Atom Shiva. Monstrous Girl attacks Wolf-Man while Hex Splode and Atom Shiva exchange a kiss before joining in.
In the tunnels under the palace, Susan gets the call that their team has engaged The Emperor's elite. She tells Brit that when the elite show up, The Emperor is never far behind. It's time to head into the palace.
Inside the palace, The Emperor is showing Donald old movies of fights that he and that dimension's Donald were in. The movie room is a recreation of Donald's house. The Emperor spends the time reminiscing about old times with Donald. The Emperor gets the call about the elite fighting at a pacification station and tells Donald he has to take care of it. Becky (who has been anchored inside of Donald's head) tries to talk to Donald once he's gone but Donald tells her to be quiet so he can think because he thinks he knows a way to get out of there.
Back at the pacification station, Invincible crushes Hex Splode's arm and punches him, telling him he's had it coming for years. Atom Shiva gets mad but Tech Jacket knocks her out from behind before she can do anything. Wolf-Man and Britney are able to take down Monstrous Girl.
The Emperor arrives. Tech Jacket and Invincible charge him but he easily bats them away. He notices that Britney has a mindscrew attached to her neck. He overrides it's control and tells Britney to kill Wolf-Man. She starts hitting him while saying that she can't stop herself. The Emperor notices that Susan and Brit are not with them and realizes where they must be. He flies off to take care of them.
Inside the palace, Brit and Susan find Donald's head on the floor. He tried to walk off using his mechanical spider legs but they shorted out. Before they can enjoy their reunion the wall explodes and The Emperor walks in. He demands Donald's head. Brit dares him to come get it.
