They opposed an unauthorised intrusion into Chinese airspace leading to a three-way battle with Evil Star attempting to escape. Green Lantern Hal Jordan looked to stall Evil Star's escape by destroying his ship and incinerating the alien technology to prevent it from falling into anyone's hands. However, tensions were high as the battle against the Great Ten continued who were aided by Black Adam as he had formed the Freedom of Power Treaty among nations that looked to curtail American influence on the world. Further hostilities were ended when the Green Lanterns and their captive Evil Star reached the Russian border where the Rocket Red Brigade escorted them to safety as they had allied with the U.S. against Black Adam's coalition.
