PLOT:
Still reeling after the loss of her mother and nearly avoiding federal incarceration, Black Alice returns to the "normal" world of taunting and teasing at her high school in Dayton, OH. Although she daydreams of using her immense power to exact revenge against the bullies at school, she nevertheless resists the urge and continues to soldier on through her day to day life. Unbeknownst to her she has attracted the attention of the Society of Super-villains. Despite the fact that the magic-based villains of the Society fear Alice's ability to absorb their powers, Talia al Ghul, Felix Faust and Cheetah continue to scout Alice in the hopes of bringing her to their side.
Oracle, learning of the Society's intentions, sends the Birds to Dayton to keep an eye on Alice while she takes some personal time off. The Birds soon realize they're already too late when they find that the Society is already at the Zechlin household. Alice, feeling betrayed by the Birds who wanted to see her locked-up, unleashes a wave of destruction that decimates her front lawn and nearly kills Black Canary!
Meanwhile, someone wearing Barbara Gordon's old Batgirl costume is patrolling the streets of Gotham.
