Countdown - The Gods Must Be Crazy / The Origin of Harley Quinn
Mary, Holly and Harley find the prison where the Greek Gods are being held captive by Granny Goodness and, by saying "Shazam" Mary not only frees them but regains her original powers as well. As a show of thanks, the Gods also grant Holly and Harley powers. Brother Eye finds it is unable to assimilate Karate Kid as an OMAC while the OMAC that was Una tries to capture him. Jason appears and tries to help but Karate Kid is captured. Mary, Holly and Harley find Granny Goodness fleeing from the scene but before they can get to her, she is killed by the New Gods' killer. They are then found by the Challengers who had been following the magic lightning Mary called down when she freed the Gods. Desaad, having found Piper on Apokolips, tries to convince him that by playing his pipe he can elevate himself to godhood. Before he can start, Brother Eye finishes assimilating the entire planet and causes explosions to interrupt Piper.
